Summary "Pannaan julistettu" by Robert Louis Stevenson is a novel written in the late 19th century. This narrative unfolds in the South Seas, focusing on the experiences of a white man named John Wiltshire as he interacts with the indigenous people of the island of Falesá. It grapples with themes of culture clash, colonization, and the complexities of relationships between different races. The opening of the story introduces Wiltshire’s arrival on the island of Falesá, describing the lush and exotic landscape enveloped in the aroma of wild fruits and the anticipation of his new life amidst the local populace. Wiltshire, having previously lived among the natives, is eager for new encounters, including the prospect of marriage suggested by a fellow trader, Case. As he navigates these foreign waters, Wiltshire learns about the local customs and the implications of his choice to marry Uma, a native woman. However, he soon finds himself at the center of a taboo, creating tension around his status among the islanders and foreshadowing the cultural challenges he will face.
