"Markheim" es un relato sobre un motivo constante en la obra de Stevenson: el demoniocomo forma depurada de la presencia del mal en el mundo. Markheim, sin embargo, le mira como a un ser "que no procedía ni de la tierra ni de Dios", pero, de cualquier modo, ligado al mal.El demonio acude al asesinato cometido por Markheim, como buitre a su carroña. El protagonista de la obra rechaza la ayuda "No haré nada que me ligue voluntariamente al mal". El mal de Markheim, su pecado, es el de una naturaleza humana contradicha, el de un hombre, como otros, a quien la vida "lleva a rastras", porque es "el pecador que no quiere serlo".

El Dorado is a short story by Robert Louis Stevenson: It seems as if a great deal were attainable in a world where there are so many marriages and decisive battles, and where we all, at certain hours of the day, and with great gusto and despatch, stow a portion of victuals finally and irretrievably into the bag which contains us. And it would seem also, on a hasty view, that the attainment of as much as possible was the one goal of man's contentious life.

It tells the story of mild-mannered lawyer G.J. Utterson who becomes alarmed by the odd behavior of his friend and client Dr. Henry Jekyll. After apparently befriending the mysterious and ill-tempered Edward Hyde, Dr. Jekyll's behavior becomes erratic and after a local murder is attributed to Hyde, the lawyer is forced to conclude that his friend has been caught up in a sinister extortion scheme. This thrilling story has become so intertwined with our cultural narrative that "Jekyll and Hyde" has become shorthand for those people with seemingly split personalities.

Robert Louis Stevenson's lengthy short story 'The Pavilion on the Links' was considered by Arthur Conan Doyle to be 'the first short story in the world'. This unsettlingly nerve-racking tale is every bit as chilling as its much wider known follower, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and at the time of its publication was every bit as successful. Stevenson makes the choice in the story of having two fairly unpleasant characters for his main protagonists.
