Literary esaay about "The Strange Case of Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde"

In this essay we focus on the main themes of the story "The Strange Case of Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde".

In the book "The Strange Case of Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde" written by Robert Louis Stevenson, it show a scientist call Dr. Henry Jeckyll who wants to sepeare  the human soul. After a lot of attempts he can get his aim even though it is not what he expects. His bad part of the soul was uncontrollable, so he commits suicide. In this essay, the importance of reputation, the guilty and Mr. Hyde's physical appearance, which are the most important themes of the novel, will be Analysis.

In the novel, preserving one's reputation is a very important aspect in society. One example is Utterson, who avoids gossips at all cost, they see gossip as a very bad part of society. If you say rumour in the Victorian era, you will ruin your reputation. “I am ashamed of my long tongue. Let us make a bargain never to refer to this again”.

If we consider the guilty of the innocent as a theme,  in each situation  the culprit is Mr. Hyde, and the victim is someone else. For example Mr. Hyde beats Mr. Carew till kill him. “And next moment, with ape-like fury, he was trampling his victim under foot, and hailing down a storm of blows, under which the bones were audibly shattered and the body jumped upon the roadway”.

As regards Mr. Hyde's physical appearance, he is ugly, deformed, and hair. His ugliness and deformity represents his back of moral and ethics. His hairy body symbolises that he is Dr. Jeckyll's instinctive side or the animalistic side of Dr. Jeckyll. "...,and brought him back to where there was already quite group about the screaming child. He was perfectly cool and made no resistance, but gave me one look, so ugly that it brought out the sweat in me like running." 

To conclude, the novel is very fanciful. Because it is impossible to separate our soul and to transform in another person. However, it leaves us thinking if Dr. Jeckyll potion is true and if it functions. Another thing I would like to know, if it is a cure for this transformation. Robert Louis Stevenson is an excellent writer because all along the story he could catch our attention and continue reading up to the end of it.

Disaster in Mar del Plata.

In this work you will see a New Report that tolds a big storm in Mar del Plata

There was a very strong rain in Mar del Plata. The waves were moving so severely that they got to the street. It killed twenty six people and fifty were injured. This rain was the second most powerful in the history of Mar del Plata.

Everything started when the temperature in Mar del Plata changed from 35° to 40°. There was so much water that this strong rain plus the waves created a chaotic situation. People were walking around the streets screaming and shouting.

People had to get under any roof they found, so as to protect themselves. Thunders hit trees, and as a consequence, they fell down as papers. The sixth day, the sun came out and the water evaporated. Fortunately, experts said that next time it will not be as chaotic as this one.

People on TV said that it was the second most powerful rain in the history of Mar del Plata. “We are grateful that this rain was in August because tourists are not here, if this had happened in January, we estimate that the number of injured people would have been greater”.
