Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is nothing more disenchanting to man than to be shown the springs and mechanism of anyart. All our arts and occupations lie wholly on the surface; it is on the surface that we perceive theirbeauty, fitness, and significance; and to pry below is to be appalled by their emptiness and shockedby the coarseness of the strings and pulleys. In a similar way, psychology itself, when pushed to anynicety, discovers an abhorrent baldness, but rather from the fault of our analysis than from anypoverty native to the mind. And perhaps in æsthetics the reason is the same: those disclosureswhich seem fatal to the dignity of art seem so perhaps only in the proportion of our ignorance; andthose conscious and unconscious artifices which it seems unworthy of the serious artist to employwere yet, if we had the power to trace them to their springs, indications of a delicacy of the sensefiner than we conceive, and hints of ancient harmonies in nature. This ignorance at least is largelyirremediable. We shall never learn the affinities of beauty, for they lie too deep in nature and too farback in the mysterious history of man. The amateur, in consequence, will always grudgingly receivedetails of method, which can be stated but never can wholly be explained; nay, on the principle laiddown in Hudibras, that

CONTENTS: On Some Technical Elements of Style in Literature, The Morality of the Profession of Letters, Books Which Have Influenced Me, A Note On Realism, My First Book: ""Treasure Island,"" The Genesis of ""The Master of Ballantrae"" Robert Louis Stevenson Stevenson's life was almost as adventurous as the stories he created. He spent much of it as a traveler, writing about his exploits in such exemplary travel books as TRAVELS WITH A DONKEY IN THE CEVENNES. He studied law but never practiced he always wanted to write, and gave himself what amounted to a writing course, studying and copying the style and techniques of his favorite writers. His attempts paid off: his first published novel, TREASURE ISLAND, brought him money and fame. At 29 he fell in love with a married woman--alienating his family--and pursued her to California, where she divorced her husband, after which the couple married and traveled extensively in the U.S., visiting various spas and health resorts in search of a cure for the tuberculosis from which Stevenson suffered all his life. After extensive travel in the South Seas, he finally settled in Samoa, where he became involved in the lives and politics of the islanders. During all his wanderings, he continued to write, producing a total of 12 novels, many short tales, three plays, poetry (including the classic A CHILD'S GARDEN OF VERSES), and dozens of books of essays and travel pieces. He died in Samoa at 44--suddenly, of apoplexy, as he was making a salad for dinner--leaving his last book, THE WEIR OF HERMISTON, unfinished.

Robert Louis (Balfour) Stevenson (November 13, 1850-December 3, 1894), was a Scottish novelist, poet, and travel writer, and a leading representative of Neo-romanticism in English literature. He was the man who "seemed to pick the right word up on the point of his pen, like a man playing spillikins," as G. K. Chesterton put it. He was also greatly admired by many authors, including Jorge Luis Borges, Ernest Hemingway, Rudyard Kipling and Vladimir Nabokov. Most modernist writers dismissed him, however, because he was popular and did not write within their narrow definition of literature. It is only recently that critics have begun to look beyond Stevenson's popularity and allow him a place in the canon.
