Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Travels and Essays of Robert Louis Stevenson: Familiar Studies of Men and Books, Miscellaneous Papers In truth, these are but the readings of a literary va grant. One book led to another, one study to another. The first was published with trepidation. Since no bones were broken, the second was launched with greater confidence. So, by insensible degrees, a young man of our generation acquires, in his own eyes, a kind of roving judicial commission through the ages; and, having once escaped the perils of the Freemans and the Furnivalls, sets himself up to right the wrongs of uni versal history and criticism. Now, it is one thing to write with enjoyment on a subject while the story is hot in your mind from recent reading, coloured with recent prejudice; and it is quite another business to put these writings coldly forth again in a bound volume. We are most of us attached to our Opinions; that is one of the natural affections of which we hear so much in youth; but few of us are altogether free from paralysing doubts and scruples. For my part, I have a small idea of the degree of accuracy possible to man, and I feel sure these studies teem with error. One and all were writ ten with genuine interest in the subject; many, how ever, have been conceived and finished with imperfect knowledge; and all have lain, from beginning to end, under the disadvantages inherent in this style of writing.

Book excerpt: Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-Familiar Studies of Men and Books by Robert Louis Stevenson.(1882) provided a kind of complementary piece to Virginibus Puerisque, reprinting the most literary and critical essays that were left out of the first collection. In her Preface, she describes the contents as "the readings of a literary tramp". The volume contains nine essays: seven essays that previously appeared in Cornhill Magazine ("Victor Hugo's Romances" [1874]; "Charles of Orleans" [1876]; "François Villon, Student, Poet and Housebreaker" [1877]; "Some Aspects of Robert Burns "[1879];" Henry David Thoreau: his character and opinions "and" Yoshida-Torajiro "[1880];" Samuel Pepys "[1881]), one of Macmillan (" John Knox and his relations with the women "" [1875]) and one from New Quarterly Magazine ("Walt Whitman", 1878).Stevenson added a "Preface, by way of criticism," which offers his own evaluation of his essays, often showing how his views have changed since the essays were first written. The studies are "familiar" in the sense of "informal" or "conversational" style. They attempt to bring their themes to life, often creating novel characterizations of men and addressing books from the point of view of a committed reader rather than an academic critic.
