内容説明
The South Seas Fiction of Robert Louis Stevenson investigates how Stevenson's fusion of imagination, travel experiences, history, and the oral traditions of Polynesian folklore and white sea yarns created novels and stories that were simultaneously realistic and symbolic. In its analysis of the author's portrayal of the conflict and compromise between islanders and white interlopers, this study reveals how Stevenson's Pacific works anticipated the use of exotic setting by Conrad, Maugham, and other writers.
