R. M. Ballantyne(Robert Michael Ballantyne)은 19세기 스코틀랜드 작가다. 1825년 4월 24일 스코틀랜드 에딘버러에서 태어나 1894년 2월 8일 이탈리아 로마에서 세상을 떠났다. 발렌타인은 빅토리아 시대에 유행했던 젊은 독자들을 위한 모험 소설로 가장 잘 알려져 있다.
Ballantyne의 글은 생존, 탐험, 다른 문화와의 만남에 대한 이야기를 다루었다. 그는 캐나다의 Hudson's Bay Company에서 사무원으로 일했고 나중에는 세계 여러 곳에서 여행하는 저널리스트로 일하면서 자신의 경험에서 영감을 얻었다. 이러한 경험을 통해 그는 광야, 토착민, 해양 모험에 대한 직접적인 지식을 얻었고 이를 자신의 이야기에 활용하였다.
Ballantyne의 주목할 만한 작품에는 "The Coral Island"(1858)로 무인도에서 난파된 세 소년의 이야기와 열대 낙원에서의 모험을 담고 있다. 특히 이 소설은 이후의 모험 문학에 지대한 영향을 미쳤으며 로버트 루이스 스티븐슨과 쥘 베른 같은 작가들에게 영감을 주었다.
Ballantyne의 다른 인기 작품으로는 "The Gorilla Hunters"(1861), "Ungava: A Tale of Esquimaux Land"(1857), "The Young Fur Traders"(1856) 등이 있다. 그는 경력 기간 동안 주로 젊은 청중을 대상으로 100권이 넘는 책을 썼지만 그의 작품은 모든 연령대의 독자들에게도 인기가 있었다.
R. M. Ballantyne (Robert Michael Ballantyne) was a 19th-century Scottish writer. He was born on April 24, 1825 in Edinburgh, Scotland and died on February 8, 1894 in Rome, Italy. Valentine is best known for the adventure novels for young readers popular in the Victorian era.
Ballantyne's writings dealt with stories of survival, exploration, and encounters with other cultures. He worked as a clerk for the Hudson's Bay Company in Canada and later as a traveling journalist in various parts of the world, drawing inspiration from his own experiences. Through these experiences, he gained first-hand knowledge of the wilderness, indigenous peoples, and maritime adventures, which he incorporated into his own stories.
Among Ballantyne's notable works is "The Coral Island" (1858), which tells the story of three boys shipwrecked on an uninhabited island and their adventures in a tropical paradise. In particular, the novel had a profound influence on later adventure literature and inspired writers such as Robert Louis Stevenson and Jules Verne.
Other popular works by Ballantyne include "The Gorilla Hunters" (1861), "Ungava: A Tale of Esquimaux Land" (1857), and "The Young Fur Traders" (1856). He wrote over 100 books during his career, mostly aimed at a younger audience, but his works were also popular with readers of all ages.
