The Pavilion on the Links

"The Pavilion on the Links" (1880) is a short-story by Robert Louis Stevenson. It was first published in "Cornhill Magazine" 42-43 (Sept-Oct 1880) [The Cornhill version is reprinted in "Treasure Island ; The New Arabian Nights" ed. with an introd. by M. R. Ridley: London/NY: Dent/Dutton (Everyman’s Library). 1962.] . A revised version was included in "The New Arabian Nights" (1882).

The story was considered by Conan Doyle in 1890 as "the high-water mark of [Stevenson’s] genius" and "the first short story in the world’" [ [http://books.google.com/books?vid=OCLC03581702&id=phwOAAAAIAAJ&pg=RA2-PA241&lpg=RA2-PA241&dq=conan+doyle+%22high+water%22+pavilion] , [http://dinamico.unibg.it/rls/bio.htm] ] . Along with a number of other stories it was collected in a volume entitled "The New Arabian Nights" in 1882. This collection is seen as the starting point for the history of the English short story by Barry Menikoff [ [http://dinamico.unibg.it/rls/bio.htm RLS - biography ] ] .
