Dr Jekyll And Mr Hyde And Other Stories

Dr Jekyll And Mr Hyde And Other Stories

Robert Louis Stevenson

Everyman's Library
1992
sidottu
Published as a 'shilling shocker', Robert Louis Stevenson's dark psychological fantasy gave birth to the idea of the split personality. The story of respectable Dr Jekyll's strange association with the 'damnable young man' Edward Hyde; the hunt through fog-bound London for a killer; and the final revelation of Hyde's true identity is a chilling exploration of humanity's basest capacity for evil.

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

Robert Louis Stevenson

Vintage Books
1991
pokkari
Robert Louis Stevenson's thrilling tale of the mild-mannered Dr. Jekyll and his evil double, Mr. Hyde, is one of the most famous horror stories in English literature. It is also a profound and fascinating fable of the divided self that continues to seize readers' imaginations. This story of a misguided genius who brings his doppelg nger to life brilliantly dramatizes inner conflict and the capacity for violence and evil in every soul. An instant sensation on its first publication in 1886, Stevenson's spine-chilling novella has given rise to countless adaptations on stage and screen over the past century, but none can match the power and dark complexity of the original.

Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894), skrev storslagna äventyrsberättelser om spännande händelser i exotiska miljöer. ”Rajans diamant” som först publicerades i samlingen ”The new Arabian nights” (1882) handlar om en stor och mycket värdefull ädelsten som vandrar från ägare till ägare och påverkar deras liv. Hat, avund, maktbegär och förvirring uppstår hos dem som diamanten hamnar hos och det är först när en ädel prins griper in som diamantens förbannelse kan brytas. ”Det är en underhållande och tidstypisk berättelse...” – Elisabet Edlund, BTJ:s sambindningslista

Halvin toimitettuna 12,50 €

Robert Louis Stevenson originally wrote Dr. Jekyll And Mr Hyde as a "chilling shocker." He then burned the draft and, upon his wife's advice, rewrote it as the darkly complex tale it is today. Stark, skillfully woven, this fascinating novel explores the curious turnings of human character through the strange case of Dr. Jekyll, a kindly scientist who by night takes on his stunted evil self, Mr. Hyde. Anticipating modern psychology, Jekyll And Hyde is a brilliantly original study of man's dual nature -- as well as an immortal tale of suspense and terror. Published in 1866, Jekyll And Hyde was an instant success and brought Stevenson his first taste of fame. Though sometimes dismissed as a mere mystery story, the book has evoked much literary admirations. Vladimir Nabokov likened it to Madame Bovary and Dead Souls as "a fable that lies nearer to poetry than to ordinary prose fiction."

I Söderhavet : en redogörelse för iakttagelser och erfarenheter gjorda på Marquesas-, Tuamotu- och Gilbert-öarna ...

Robert Louis Stevenson

Bokförlaget Korpen

sidottu
Sommaren 1888 lade skonaren Casco ut från San Francisco och satte kurs på Marquesasöarna. Ombord fanns författaren Robert Louis Stevenson tillsammans med hustru, mor och styvson. Under de kommande åren seglade Stevenson runt i Söderhavet och slog sig slutligen ned på en av Samoaöarna. I Söderhavet är berättelsen om dessa resor och om livet tillsammans med människorna i denna sällsamma övärld. Boken är inte bara en spännande reseskildring utan också en tidig socialantropologisk rapport och en personlig berättelse om en äventyrlig färd som inte alltid leder till det på förhand bestämda målet. Stevenson är en skarpsynt iakttagare och berättar medryckande om livet på Söderhavsöarna. Han skildrar olika folkslag, deras egenskaper ? och enskilda personers egenheter ? språk, myter och legender, tabun och kannibalism, andetro och inställningen till döden. \"... en av mitt livs starkaste läsupplevelser. Stevensons språk var unikt i sin fulländning. Man sitter förtrollad, oceantagen, gripen.\" (Anderz Harning.) \"Boken är ett personligt och värdefullt tidsdokument, som än idag är en spännande läsning. Översättaren har väl lyckats fånga Stevensons nyansrika språk.\" (Gunilla Arvidsson, Btj.)

Treasure Island

Treasure Island

Robert Louis Stevenson

Bantam USA
1982
pokkari
Masterfully crafted, Treasure Island is a stunning yarn of piracy on the fiery tropic seas -- an unforgettable tale of treachery that embroils a host of legendary swashbucklers, from honest young Jim Hawkins to sinister, two-timing Israel Hands, to evil incarnate, blind Pew. But above all, Treasure Island is a complex study of good and evil, as embodied by that hero-villain, Long John Silver: the merry unscrupulous buccaneer-rogue whose greedy quest for gold cannot help but win the heart of every soul who ever longed for romance, treasure, and adventure. Since its publication in 1883, Treasure Island has provided an enduring literary model for such eminent writers as Anthony Hope, Graham Greene, and Jorge Luis Borges. As David Daiches wrote: "Robert Louis Stevenson transformed the Victorian boys' adventure into a classic of its kind."

"The first experience can never be repeated. The first love, the first sunrise, the first South Seas island, are memories apart, and touched by a virginity of sense." -Robert Louis Stevenson, In the South SeasThis jacketed hardcover edition of In the South Seas (1896) by Robert Louis Stevenson offers observations the author made during a voyage to the Marquesas, the Paumotus, and the Gilbert Islands in 1888-89. Originally written as a journal, the book that evolved from these notes went beyond an amusing traveler-centered description of his experiences to provide a more theme-based narrative, adding discussions of the South Seas culture, language, traditions, and society: anthropology, history, and sociology, together with personal impressions and anecdotes.

Although not all stories have been as popular, many have been highly praised as great works of fiction.
