Dr. Manfredi, a recent graduate of Queens University in Canada, will introduce and discuss
R. L. Stevensons extensive photography in the Pacific Islands, including the images housed
in the archive at The Writers Museum in Edinburgh. Working with his wife and stepson
during his final years, the famous author produced nearly 600 photographs, including a
series depicting King Tembinok of Apemama. Dr. Manfredi will consider the images and
also the methodological challenges that they pose.
