Sinopsis de UNDERWOODS

In "Underwoods," Robert Louis Stevenson offers a captivating collection of poetry that reflects his keen observations of nature, human experience, and the subtleties of emotion. Written during the late Victorian era, Stevensons literary style is marked by its lyrical quality, vivid imagery, and profound introspection, placing him within the context of a transitional period in poetry. This work represents a departure from the rigidity of earlier forms and embraces a more modern sensibility, drawing inspiration from the rich tradition of Romanticism while paving the way for the Modernist movement that would follow. Stevensons multifaceted career as a novelist, essayist, and travel writer provides a rich background for the themes explored in "Underwoods." His lifelong passion for adventure and exploration, evident in works such as "Treasure Island" and "Kidnapped," informs his poetic reflections on the beauty and complexity of the world around him. The interplay between his physical travels and emotional landscapes reveals a poet deeply attuned to both the external and internal dimensions of life. Readers seeking a profound exploration of the human condition and the natural world will find "Underwoods" not only an engaging literary experience but also a thoughtful meditation on existence. Stevensons eloquent verses invite contemplation and will resonate with those who appreciate the art of poetry and its power to illuminate the intricacies of life.

Escrito por Robert Louis Stevenson


Robert Louis Stevenson
(Edimburgo, 1850 – Vailima Upolu, Samoa Occidental, 1894). En la tumba de este escritor escocés, en una lejana isla de los mares del Sur a la que fue por motivos de salud, figura grabado el apodo que le dieron los samoanos: Tusitala, «el contador de historias».
Se dio a conocer como novelista con La isla del tesoro (1883) y su popularidad como escritor se basó fundamentalmente en los emocionantes argumentos de sus novelas fantásticas y de aventuras, en las que siempre aparecen contrapuestos el bien y el mal, a modo de alegoría moral que se sirve del misterio y la aventura.
Fue muy reconocido en vida y su escritura ha sido de gran influencia para importantes autores posteriores.
