Scene Summary and Context Guide

In Robert Louis Stevenson's 'Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde,' the story explores the duality of human nature and the conflict between scientific discovery and moral or religious values. The narrative is set in Victorian London, a city where scientific advancements are rapidly changing society, yet traditional religious beliefs remain strong. The character of Dr. Jekyll, a scientist driven by curiosity, creates a potion that transforms him into the sinister Mr. Hyde. This transformation symbolizes the struggle between scientific exploration and ethical boundaries—raising questions about whether science is a force for good or danger. The story often employs a tone of mystery and moral warning, illustrating the potential consequences of pushing scientific limits without regard for moral implications. Short phrases like 'uncontrolled curiosity' and 'moral dilemma' capture the central tension. Stevenson's narrative heightens suspense through descriptive language and strategic pauses, creating a mood that warns against the unchecked pursuit of knowledge. The tension between science and religion is reflected in the characters’ actions and the story's moral undertones, making it a compelling examination of modern ethics and spiritual beliefs.
