Essay of "The Strange case of Dr.Jekyll and Mr.Hyde

In writing we had to write an essay about "The Strange Case of Dr.jekyll and Mr.Hyde", and here is mine. I do it with JuanKos.

The Strange case of Dr.Jekyll and Mr.Hyde" was a story written by Robert Louis Stevenson. It talked about a man called Henry Jekyll that wanted to divide his own into two parts,  the good and bad one. He obtained his goal but with bad results, not the espected ones. In this story the main themes were violence, duality of human nature and importance of reputation.

In connection with violence as a theme, Mr. Hyde used a lot of violence to solve many problems. Also he killed many people such as carew and in the Story of the Door  it said that Mr.Hyde kicked a girl that was on the street. " with ape-like fury, he was trampling his victim under foot, and hailing down a storm of blows"

In connection to duality of human nature, the behaviour of Mr.Hyde was exactly like an animal because he moved as an animal, he killed for pleasure not to eat. Also he had a lot of hair like an animal, he did not talk very well, so in one way he was an animal. Also his behaviour was primitive, not like a normal person. " it was on the moral side, and in my own person, that i learned to recognized the thorough and primitive duality of man"

In connection to the importante of reputation, Mr. Utterson could damage his own reputation if people discover that he knew who Mr.Hyde was. And also if he talked,  people would say that now was to late and so many people died. " here is another lesson to say nothing" " i am ashamed of my  long tongue. Let us make a bargain never to refer to this again"

In conclusion this themes were very good conected to the story because they assimilated the story with real things in life. In my opinion is a story a bit difficult to unterstand but this themes help you a lot.
