"In every respect, this magnificent novel plunges deeply into the roots of human nature, probes the psychology of motives, conceives a kaleidoscope of ambiguous and curiously ambivalent situations which turn into and upon every phase of man's moral experience. We have the political situation to make a judgment upon: who is right, the Master in joining the rebellious cause of Bonnie Prince Charlie against the English crown, or Henry and the old lord, who remain faithful to the King and the peers of the realm? We have the domestic situation. Is Alison right or wrong in keeping alive some feeling for James, who has, in the eyes of the world, lost everything: cause, estate, wife, and livelihood? We have the inner moral and mental vacillations of two men's souls in the agonies of relentless conflict, altering the structure of human nature, and finally beating each other in exhaustion to literal death. In the end, it is impossible to judge one man good and redeemed and another man evil and damned. We are aware only that we have been on a journey into the depths of human nature."@en . .

"The Master of Ballantrae: A Winter's Tale is a book by the Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson, focusing upon the conflict between two brothers, Scottish noblemen whose family is torn apart by the Jacobite rising of 1745."@en . "In December 1887 Stevenson wrote that he had 'fallen head over heels into a new tale ... a most seizing tale; there are some fantastic elements; the most is a dead genuine human problem - human tragedy, I should say rather.'. The Master of Ballantrae opens in the old Scottish house of Durrisdeer, ancestral home of the Duries, a family divided by the Jacobite rising of 1745. Its adventure draws in sea voyages, piracy, buried treasure, magic and nightmare, and centres on the fatal rivalry between two brothers, James and Henry, and the wealthy and beautiful kinswoman who loves one brother but marries the other. 'The Master is all I know of the devil, ' Stevenson confessed, and the satanic, virile, seductive figure of James Durie dominates the novel." . . . . . . . . . . . . . . "The Two major novels.

"Set in 18th century Scotland, it is an exploration of the nature and relationship between good and evil. In many ways, this is a parallel book to Jekyll and Hyde. In Master, the different aspects of human moral behavior are explored in conflict and relationship of 2 brothers, one charismatic and amoral, the other, stolid and virtuous. This is primarily a psychological novel of family tragedy brought about by the characters of the 2 bothers in a conflict ignited by the Jacobite uprising of 1745. Stevenson does an excellent job of handling the characters and plot. As with his other work, there is a nice depiction of 18th century Scotland. --R. Albin at Amazon.com."@en . . .
