Synopsis "Edinburgh"

Edinburgh was Robert Louis Stevenson's birthplace. He lived there on and off for the first 29 years of his life, and continued to visit the city until 1887, after which time he left Scotland, and Europe, forever. Wherever he was, RLS often returned to Edinburgh imaginatively. He wrote about the city in Edinburgh: Picturesque Notes (1878), and it was also a setting for Deacon Brodie (1880), Admiral Guinea (1884), "The Body Snatcher" (1884), Kidnapped (1886),"The Misadventures of John Nicholson" (1887), The Wrecker (1892), Catriona (1893), Weir of Hermiston and St Ives (1898).

Escritor escocés, Robert Louis Stevenson, nacido en Edimburgo el 13 de noviembre de 1850, está considerado uno de los clásicos de la literatura del siglo XIX.

La literatura de Stevenson se centra en novelas de fantasía y de aventuras, dando como resultado una excelente producción que le valdría el éxito popular. Obras como La isla del tesoro (1883), El extraño caso del Dr. Jekyll y Mr. Hyde (1886) o Flecha negra (1888) han sido traducidas a decenas de idiomas y adaptadas al cine, el teatro o la televisión en multitud de ocasiones.

Debido a su frágil salud, Stevenson viajó por el mundo entero en busca de climas más saludables, convirtiéndose en un experto de la literatura y el ensayo de viajes.

Sus últimos años transcurrieron en las Islas Samoa, donde murió el 3 de diciembre de 1894.
