Asset Description

Overview & Authentication

·Robert Louis Stevenson was born on November 13, 1850, in Edinburgh.

·In 1867, Stevenson began studying engineering at Edinburgh University. His father hoped he would follow in his footsteps and join the family business building deep-sea lighthouses in Scotland. Stevenson instead switched his courses to study law, graduating in 1875 but never practicing, instead pursuing his dream of becoming a writer.

·In 1873, Stevenson publishes his first essay, titled Roads, under the name L.S. Stoneven.

·In 1878, Stevenson’s first published volume is released. An Inland Voyage described his journey via canoe from Antwerp to Northern France.

·In 1881, Stevenson begins work on The Sea Cook, which would later evolve into Treasure Island, published in November 1883. The book was serialized in a magazine from October 1881 to January 1882.

·In October 1885, Stevenson completes Strange Case Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde after around a month of writing.

·In January 1886, Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is published.

·The story of Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is told mostly from the perspective of a London lawyer named Mr. Gabriel John Utterson, a friend of Dr. Henry Jekyll. Utterson learns of an incident in which a man named Mr. Hyde injures a small girl and uses a check from Jekyll to pay the girl’s family. The relationship between Jekyll and Hyde confuses Utterson until he finds Hyde dead in Jekyll’s home. Utterson reads documents left behind by Jekyll and finds that Jekyll had developed a potion that allowed him to separate his personality into good and evil — with each attribute represented by Jekyll (good) and Hyde (evil).

·The story of Jekyll and Hyde supposedly came to Stevenson in a dream. He had already been interested in the idea of split personalities but had yet to write about the topic until the idea for the book appeared in a nightmare.

·According to Mental Floss: “There are few books that have seeped more deeply into popular culture than Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Beyond movies, there have been cartoon adaptations with Mighty Mouse and Bugs Bunny. Stan Lee has said that along with Frankenstein, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde helped to inspire The Incredible Hulk. There are musicals, too—like the recent Jekyll & Hyde, and a 1988 Nintendo game.”

·In 1894 Stevenson died in Samoa on land he had purchased there less than 4 years earlier.

·The first film adaptation of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde was released in 1908 and had a running time of only 16 minutes.

·The 1932 film adaptation of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde goes onto win actor Fredic March, who plays both Jekyll and Hyde, a Best Actor in a Leading Role Oscar at the 1932 Academy Awards.
