Technical language in novels, rare in itself, is still more rarely interpreted. Focusing on Robert Louis Stevenson's bildungsromans, in this essay I argue that a technical maritime lexicon marks their protagonists' accession to maturity. But that lexicon and the love for the world it attests to and demands also forces a redefinition of what it means to be mature, offering an open, adventurous, never-to-be completed Bildung that refuses the stasis of marriage or a settled profession
