Error Correction: Victorian Setting and Literary Techniques
Scene Summary and Context Guide: The story is set in Victorian London, a time of rapid industrial growth, strict social hierarchies, and moral rigidity. The city is depicted through dark alleyways, fog-laden streets, and imposing architecture that reflect the era's tension between modernity and tradition. Stevenson's narrative employs vivid imagery, such as 'thick fog rolling over gas-lit streets,' to evoke a mysterious atmosphere. The character of Mr Hyde is introduced with phrases like 'a strange and sinister figure,' highlighting his connection to the darker aspects of human nature. The prose features Victorian stylistic elements, including complex sentences and formal diction. The phrase 'a look of terror flickered across his face' hints at the psychological horror pervasive in the story, illustrating the Victorian fascination with the duality of the human soul. This setting underscores the themes of concealment and societal masks, essential to understanding the novel's critique of Victorian morality.
