ROBERT
LOUIS STEVENSON:
A LITERARY LIFE
William Cray
More than most writers, Robert Louis Stevenson requires a Literary
Life. As Henry James commented on reading Balfour s LifeofRLS: Louis
...
has superseded, personally, his books, and this last replacement of
himself
...
has killed the literary baggage. Serious critical attention to
Stevenson s literary works has been relatively slow to appear, though
the Life of Stevenson continues to flourish, having become almost a
minor genre in its own right. The version of Stevenson s literary life
presented here reflects Stevenson s own reservations about the role
of linear chronology in biography, and is more of a literary geography
than a literary history. Its structure is defined by the various geo¬
graphical and cultural contexts (Scotland, France, England, America
and the South Seas) in which Stevenson lived and worked. This is the
first literary biography of Stevenson since the publication of his
Collected Letters; it has also made use of previously unpublished
letters.
William Gray has studied at the Universities of Oxford, Edinbuigh and
Princeton, and is currently Senior Lecturer at University College
Chichester, UK, where he has taught English since
1990.
His previous
publications include a book on C. S. Lewis in the Writers and their
Work series.
The cover reproduces an engraving, held at the Writer s Museum,
Edinburgh, showing RLS at Bournemouth in
1885.
