Ambientato nel periodo delle rivolte giacobite (1745), Il signore di Ballantrae è la tragica e misteriosa storia della rivalità tra due fratelli, rampolli di un’antica casata scozzese. James, il maggiore, è egoista, affascinante, manipolatore e diabolico, capace di incantare chiunque, ed è perciò amato dal padre, dalle donne e da tutti quelli che entrano in contatto con lui. Henry, il fratello minore, è invece silenzioso, modesto, remissivo e disprezzato da familiari e sottoposti. Dopo la notizia della morte di James, partito per entrare nell’esercito del principe Charles allo scopo di sostenere la causa degli Stuart, Henry eredita l’intera fortuna familiare e sposa Alison, fidanzata di James, ancora innamorata di quest’ultimo. Ma James non è morto e improvvisamente ricompare sulla scena per riprendersi la sua parte di eredità e ricoprire d’ignominia il fratello minore, accusandolo di avidità e tradimento. L’innata rivalità tra i due si inasprisce, sfociando nell’odio più feroce, e li condurrà fin nella lontana America, in una sfida all’ultimo sangue.Grazie alla maestria narrativa dell’autore nel delineare vicende, avventure e personaggi e alla sua straordinaria capacità di penetrazione psicologica, Il signore di Ballantrae è considerato da una parte della critica il capolavoro di Stevenson ed ha suscitato l’ammirazione di alcuni tra i più grandi scrittori del mondo, tra cui Henry James, Ernest Hemingway, G.K. Chesterton e Jorge Louis Borges. Quest’ultimo lo amava in modo così appassionato, che, in collaborazione con il suo partner letterario Adolfo Bioy Casares, gli dedicò uno dei suoi scritti per rendere onore al suo splendore. Henry James dichiarò che la sua lettura gli aveva procurato la più grande emozione letteraria che avesse provato nella sua vita. Chesterton paragonò per intensità i capitoli che si svolgono nel castello scozzese dei Durrisdeer alle grandi tragedie greche.Capolavoro della letteratura di tutti i tempi, ricco di fascino, mistero e avventure, Il signore di Ballantrae è un libro che riesce a tenere il lettore col fiato sospeso fino all’ultima riga, coinvolgendolo nelle spire di emozioni straordinariamente intense e lasciandogli un ricordo indelebile.

In his romance "The Master of Ballantrae" Stevenson has touched high-water mark. One is tempted to go beyond this and say that no modern work of fiction in the English language rises higher in the scale of literary merit than this. It is a story of human passion, of human weakness, of human love and hate. The scene of the tale, for the most part, is laid in and around the House of Durrisdeer, on the Solway shore. Four persons make up the dramatis persona, at the beginning of the story, and although others come into the drama as it wears on to its tragical close, it may be said that no greater number than this is called into the plot of the piece. An old lord overfond of his rascally elder son; that son, devilish in his selfishness and satanic in his powers of fascination; a young woman blindly in love with him; and a younger son, who is early taunted with being the Supplanter, and who has the only virtue in the family; these are the materials from which Mr. Stevenson has evolved one of the most admirable pieces of literary work that has been given to the world of readers in many a day.

This carefully crafted ebook: "The Master of Ballantrae: A Winter's Tale (Illustrated Edition)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. The Master of Ballantrae 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. The novel is presented as the memoir of one Ephraim Mackellar, steward of the Durrisdeer estate in Scotland. The novel opens in 1745, the year of the Jacobite Rising. When Bonnie Prince Charlie raises the banner of the Stuarts, the Durie family—the Laird of Durrisdeer, his older son James Durie (the Master of Ballantrae) and his younger son Henry Durie—decide on a common strategy: one son will join the uprising while the other will join the loyalists. That way, whichever side wins, the family's noble status and estate will be preserved. Logically, the younger son should join the rebels, but the Master insists on being the rebel (a more exciting choice) and contemptuously accuses Henry of trying to usurp his place, comparing him to Jacob. The two sons agree to toss a coin to determine who goes… Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) was a Scottish novelist, poet, essayist, and travel writer. His most famous works are Treasure Island, Kidnapped, and Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. A literary celebrity during his lifetime, Stevenson now ranks among the 26 most translated authors in the world.
