    Extractions: About Us Contact Us Scottish essayist, poet, and author of fiction and travel books, 1850-1894 So long as we are loved by others I should say that we are almost indispensable; and no man is useless while he has a friend. Everybody, sooner or later, sits down to a banquet of consequences. Absences are a good influence in love and keep it bright and delicate. All human beings are commingled out of good and evil. An aim in life is the only fortune worth finding. By the time a man gets into the seventies his continued existence is a mere miracle. In the law of God, there is no statute of limitations. Every one lives by selling something. The difficulty of literature is not to write, but to write what you mean; not to affect your reader, but to affect him precisely as you wish. For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move; to feel the needs and hitches of our life more nearly; to come down off this feather-bed of civilization, and find the globe granite underfoot and strewn with cutting flints.

Er gab einem seltsamen Manne Unterkunft, der sich täglich betrank und von Tag zu Tag unruhiger wurde. Als wir am Ziel unserer Reise, einer westindischen Insel, angelangt waren, gab der Kapitän Landeerlaubnis. Ich wollte unbedingt dabei sein und setzte mich auch in eines der Boote. Als wir landeten, lief ich, so schnell ich konnte, in den Wald, um unbeobachtet die Insel ausforschen zu können. Alle riefen nach mir, doch ich dachte nicht daran umzukehren. Nachdem sie mich einige Stunden gesucht hatten, waren sie mir sehr nahe gekommen. Ich konnte Silver, den Koch, belauschen, wie er mit einem Mitglied der Bande, das sich an der Meuterei nicht mehr beteiligen wollte, eine Auseinandersetzung hatte. Leider war dieser so unvorsichtig, Silver den Rücken zuzukehren. Das bedeutete seinen Tod durch einen schnell und gekonnten Messerstich. zurück

    Extractions: A Victorian author from Scotland, Robert Louis Stevenson is responsible for a variety of genres, including essays, pamphlets, and poetry. He also produced novels, including: Treasure Island Kidnapped A Child’s Garden of Verses The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Stevenson’s early life was comprised of living in Edinburgh with his parents and personal nurse, Cummy, while he fought numerous bodily ailments, primarily occurring in his lungs. Stevenson was born in the outer edge of New Town , an area of Edinborough that housed the most esteemed professionals in society. When Stevenson turned three, the family moved to a larger house in the same area, but it was a drafty house that worsened Stevenson’s health. Upon the doctor’s advice, the family moved again, to an even larger house in the middle of New Town. These pulmonary health problems, which later developed into Tuberculosis , plagued Stevenson throughout his lifetime and led to his constant search for warmer climates through extensive traveling.

    Extractions: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) Scottish essayist, poet and author of fiction and travel books, known especially for his novels of adventure. Characteristic for Stevenson's novels is skillful use of horror and supernatural elements. Often his stories are set in colorful locations, where his characters can forget the restrictions of Victorian social manners. Arguing against realism, Stevenson underlined the "nameless longings of the reader", the desire for experience. "But we are so fond of life that we have no leisure to entertain the terror of death. It is a honeymoon with us all through, and none of the longest. Small blame to us if we give our whole hearts to this glowing bride of ours, to the appetities, to honour, to the hungry curiosity of the mind, to the pleasure of the eyes in nature, and the pride of our own nimble bodies." (from 'Aes Triplex') Robert Louis Stevenson was born in Edinburgh as the son of Thomas Stevenson, a prosperous joint-engineer to the Board of Northern Lighthouses. He invented, among others, the marine dynamometer, which measures the force of waves. Stevenson's grandfather was Britain's greatest builder of lighthouses. Since his childhood Stevenson suffered from tuberculosis. He spent much of his time in bed during his early years, composing stories before he can read. At the age of sixteen he produced a short historical tale. As an adult there were times when Stevenson could not wear a jacket for fear of bringing on a haemorrhage of the lung. In 1867 he entered Edinburgh University to study engineering. Due to his ill health he had to abandon his plans to follow in his father's footsteps. Stevenson changed to law and in 1875 he was called to the Scottish bar. During these years his first texts were published in

    Extractions: ( from "The Lamplighter" by R.L.Stevenson in A Child's Garden of Verses The Stevenson House was the childhood home of Robert Louis Stevenson (1850 - 1894), creator of Treasure Island Kidnapped and Jekyll and Hyde , from the age of six until he finally left in 1880. Born at Edinburgh in 1850, the son of Thomas Stevenson a noted lighthouse engineer, Robert Louis Stevenson grew up in the Stevenson House at 17 Heriot Row from the age of six. Here he was cared for through many illnesses by his mother and his beloved nurse Alison Cunningham, known as 'Cummie', whom he described in the Dedication of his collection of poems for children A Child's Garden of Verses as "My second mother, my first wife". Prevented by ill-health from going much to ordinary schools, the Stevenson House was the centre of his world and his mind was nourished by ceaseless reading as well as the stories told by Cummie of ghosts, ghouls, Scottish history, and the Bible. He also travelled with his father around Scotland on his engineering business - once descending in a complete diving suit of brass helmet, lead boots etc. to view the underwater works for the harbour at Wick, in northern Scotland- as well as journeying with his parents to the Continent. Intended by his father to be trained as a civil engineer, R.L.S. matriculated at the University of Edinburgh in 1867. It was soon clear, however, that the young man was unsuited for the work and he agreed with his father to study law, to give him a steady income should writing - already his chosen path - fail him. Literature, however, had seized him. Edinburgh and the Stevenson House were still his home, and the centre of his imagination, but he began to travel more and further. London, Bournemouth, France and the Continent all drew him - for his health and sheer wanderlust. Ever and again, however, he came back to Edinburgh, that "meteorological purgatory" (
