Opis

The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic 1886 novella exploring the dual nature of human personality. The story follows the respected London physician Dr Henry Jekyll, whose scientific experiments lead him to create an alternate identity, Edward Hyde. Through this transformation, Stevenson examines the conflict between socially acceptable behaviour and darker impulses that individuals often hide. The narrative unfolds through the perspective of Mr Utterson, Jekyll’s lawyer, who gradually uncovers the connection between the two figures as Hyde’s violent actions escalate. The book is widely regarded as a foundational work in psychological fiction and Gothic literature, influencing later discussions about identity, morality, and the divided self. Its themes continue to be studied in literature, psychology, and cultural history, making it one of Stevenson’s most enduring and significant works.
