Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'The True Stevenson; A Study in Clarification' is a compelling biographical analysis that seeks to unveil the human reality of the celebrated author Robert Louis Stevenson. Written by George Sidney Hellman, this work serves as a corrective to earlier, often idealized accounts of the writer'…s life and character. By examining private letters, unpublished manuscripts, and personal testimonies, Hellman provides a more nuanced and candid portrait of the man behind 'Treasure Island' and 'Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.' The study delves into Stevenson's complex relationships, his struggles with health, and the evolution of his literary philosophy. Hellman challenges the 'Seraph in Chocolate' myth-a sanitized version of Stevenson promoted by his contemporaries-and instead presents a figure of depth, contradiction, and immense creative energy. This volume is an essential resource for scholars of Victorian literature and fans of Stevenson's work, offering a profound exploration of the interplay between a writer's life and his artistic output. Through its rigorous approach to clarification, the book remains a significant contribution to Stevenson scholarship, shedding light on the personal trials and triumphs of one of Scotland's most beloved literary icons.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. This work was reproduced from the original artifact, and remains as true to the original work as possible. Therefore, you may see the original copyright references, library stamps (as most of these works have been housed in our most important libraries around the world), and other notations in the work.This work is in the public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations. Within the United States, you may freely copy and distribute this work, as no entity (individual or corporate) has a copyright on the body of the work.As a reproduction of a historical artifact, this work may contain missing or blurred pages, poor pictures, errant marks, etc. Scholars believe, and we concur, that this work is important enough to be preserved, reproduced, and made generally available to the public.
