Abstract:"This collection of essays is the result of a long-term research interest which aimed at bringing two very different writers - Robert Louis Stevenson and Joseph Conrad - more closely together in literary and cultural criticism. Their severe and substantial criticisms of colonial relations are combined and contrasted with their loves for the sea, its attractions and challenges. The volume also includes essays on the sea as a cultural space and is rounded off by a reading of Bram Stoker's Dracula, which takes up and synthesises numerous topics dealt with earlier concerning the Victorian fin die siècle."
