PassageA

AScottishnovelist,poet,essayist,andtravelwriter,RobertLouisStevensonwasbornat8HowardPlace,EdinburghScotland,on13November1850.Ithasbeenmorethan100yearssincehisdeath.Stevensonwasawriterwhocausedconflictingopinionsabouthisworks.Ononehand,hewasoftenhighlypraisedforhisexpertproseandstylebymanyEnglish-languagecritics.Ontheotherhand,potherscriticizedthereligiousthemesinhisworks,oftenmisunderstandingStevenson’sownreligiousbeliefs.Sincehisdeathacenturybefore,criticsandbiographershavedisagreedonthelegacyofStevenson’swriting.Twobiographers,KFandCP,wroteabiographyaboutStevensonwithaclearfocus.TheychosenottocriticizeaspectsofStevenson’spersonallife.Instead,theyfocusedonhiswriting,andgavehighpraisetohiswritingstyleandskill.

Theliterarypendulumhasaswungthesedays.DifferentcriticshavedifferentopinionstowardsRobertLouisStevenson’sworks.Thoughtoday,Stevensonisoneofthemosttranslatedauthorsintheworld,hisworkshavesustainedawidevarietyofnegativecriticismthroughouthislife.itwaslikeacompletereversalofpolarity---fromhighlypositivetoslightlylesspositivetoclearlynegative;afterbeinghighlypraisedasagreatwriter,hebecameanexampleofanauthorwithcorruptethicsandlackofmoral.Manyliterarycriticspassedhisworksoffaschildren’sstoriesorhorrorstories,andthoughttohavelittlesocialvalueinaneducationalsetting.Stevenson’sworkswereoftenexcludedfromliteraturecurriculumbecauseofitscontroversialnature.Thesedebatesremain,andmanycriticsstillassertthatdespitehisskill,hisliteraryworksstilllackmoralvalue.

OneofthemainreasonswhyStevenson’sliteraryworksattractedsomuchcriticismwasduetothegenreofhiswriting.Stevensonmainlywroteadventurestories,whichwaspartofapopularandentertainingwritingfadatthetime.Manyofusbelieveadventurestoriesareexciting,offersengagingcharacters,action,andmysterybutultimatelycan’tteachmoralprinciples.Theplotpointsareone-dimensionalandrarelyofferadeepermoralmeaning,insteadfocusingonexcitingandshockingplottwistsandthrillingevents.Hisworkswereevencriticizedbyfellowauthors.ThoughStevenson’sworkshavedeeplyinfluencedOscarWilde,WildeoftenjokedthatStevensonwouldhavewrittenbetterworksifhewasn’tborninScotland.OtherauthorscametoStevenson’sdefence,includingGalsworthywhoclaimedthatStevensonisagreaterwriterthanThomasHardy.

DespiteWilde’scriticism,Stevenson’sScottishidentitywasintegralpartofhiswritingworks.AlthoughStevenson’sworkswerenotpopularinScotlandwhenhewasalive,manymodernScottishliterarycriticsclaimthatSirWalterScottandRobertLouisStevensonarethemostinfluentialwritersinthehistoryofScotland.WhilemanycriticsexaltSirWalterScottasaliterarygeniusbecauseofhistechnicalability,othersarguethatStevensondeservesthesamerecognitionforhisnaturalabilitytocapturestoriesandcharactersinwords.ManyofScott’sworksweretakenmoreseriouslyasliteraturefortheirdepthduetotheirtragicthemes,butfansofStevensonpraisehisuniquestyleofstory-tellingandcaptureofhumannature.Stevenson’sworks,unlikeotherBritishauthors,capturedtheuniquedaytodaylifeofaverageScottishpeople.Manyli
