Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde chapter 1: story of the door  

pages 1-2  'he was austere with himself; drank gin when he was alone to mortify a taste for vintages and although he enjoyed the theatre hadn't set foot in one for over 20 years' the ideal of the victorian gentleman no alcholol sex charitable respectable Mr Utterson is the role model  'friends were those of his own blood' 'his affections like ivy were the growth of time' introverted and loyal but like ivy toxic and posinous too loyal  'they said nothing' 'singularly dull' 'obvious relief the appearance of  a friend' 'resist the calls of buisness' in silence and uncomfortable why go each week and go out of your way to go? VG interact with other respectable people keep their reputation out of polietness.

page 2  stevenso deliberatly juxtaposed settings like the dual features of a victorian man  hyde is the personification of evil 

the street was small floride charms contrast from its dingy neighbour hood like a fire in a forest smiling sales women    no window nothing but a door sordid negligence neither bell nor knocker    i was coming home from some place a the end of the world three o'clock black winter

pages 6-7   hour of twelve- why so late witching hour?  he opened the safe and took from the most private to his business room- kept in a safe important mysterious not any safe the most private   disappearance or unexplained absence for an period exceeding 3 calendar months- supernatural disappearance foreshadowing Jekyll's fate hole where good should be and mystery and secritism  and now i fear it is disgrace - blackmail ghost of old mistake    hearty healthy and dapper hair prematurely white- white from stress/shock wealthy rich upper class reputable  devilish little of the man - of with the devil doing no good hell Victorian men are supossed to fear god and the devil  Damon and Pythias-   Greek legend pair of friends so strong  used in Jekyll and Hyde to show that the dispute between Lanyon and Jekyll wasn't minor it could of split up the closest of friends  Lanyon=religion Jekyll=science

  pg 2-3 the man trampled calmly over the child's body -trampled has connotations of power aggression and unstoppable, calmly shows he did it deliberate and controlled action juxtaposing adverb intentionally harmed the child who has links to innocences vunribility  it was hellish to see-from a different world doesn't belong here Satan the devil  it was like some damned juggernaut - it is dehumanising damned another reference to hell as he critiques god juggernaut is a holy sacrifce juxtaposing the hell connotations of damned  I saw the sawbones turn sick and white with the desire to kill him - doctors take an oath not to hurt enough to break an oath pure evil  stumping along  really like Satan -references to hell around the exsistance of both Jekyll and Hyde 'really like Satan' desire hellish to see stumping along almost unevolved and ape like  sneering coolness - animal like [later referenced in chapter 2] - https://www.goconqr.com/en-GB/p/33094298/note_page/1391803

pages 4    Mr Enfield also was at the road and doesn't specify why putting the attention on the acts of Hyde 'some place at the end of the world' and juxtaposing 'the more it looks like queer street the less i ask'  despite the fact he was their at the scene of the crime to for a reason he doesn't specify     

blackmail was common in the Victorian era hence them jumping quickly to this conclusion 'blackmail house'  'displeasing down right detestable'- not to Victorian standards not human repulsive vile something leads to mystery =unspecified detestable Hyde is the embodiment of evil man by the name of Hyde- hidden side  no there door but nobody goes in or out of that one- secretism someone is inside unseen a shadow hidden= hyde

chapter 2 - search for mr Hyde

page 8-9-10

if he be Mr hide i will be Mr seek  hissing intake of breath - snake devil sinister  flush of anger- uncontrolable aggressive dangerous  other snarled aloud into a savage laugh  -- wild dangerous aggressive juxtaposition zoomorphism hyperbole sibilance no remorse pleasure  links to violence and animalistic qualities as well as Darwin's theory of evolution and devolve as Hyde as uncontrollable animalistic actions 

old dr fell- was hated by instinct by comparing him to Hyde shows an instant dislike  satans signiture apon his face - he is the devil 

Page 8

page 11

the ghost of some old sin the cancer of some concealed disgrace- secritisim and rumors of victorian society  must have secrets of his own black secrets by the look of him secrets compared to poor Jekyll's worst to be like sunshine -  juxaposition 

Page 9

chapter 3 : dr jekyll was quite at ease

Page 10

Pages  12-13

well made smooth faced man of fifty- well of rich older average life expectacy 45  there came a blackness about his eyes- Hyde peaking through taking over evil windows to the soul  the moment i choose i can rid of my Hyde- ironic foreshadows rid is very vauge 

Page 11

chapter 4- the Carew murder case

Page 12

Pages 14-15

full moon- uncontrolable under the cover of darkness  trifling a heavy cane- troglodic like a bat the traditional staff of Victorian man with ape-like fury-  animal unevolved Darwins theory  hailing down a storm of blows  broke out in a great flame of anger-out of control intesnifier heat anger wrath  particularly small and wicked- looking-- unevolved evil the devil only true description 

extra thoughts-- is Hyde the devil? punishing those who have sinned making him the only true good and challenging the hypocracy of Victorian society  no true un bias recount or description of Hyde. weather mentions fog and mystery showing how nature is on Hyde’s side and how fog drowns the city is trying to clean it from sin linking to baptism and Noah’s ark biblical allusion 

Page 13

Chapter 5-The incident of the letter

Page 14

Pages 18 

Dingy windowless structure- theme of secrecy and mystery I’d explored during this chapter via the description of Jekyll lab  foggy cupola- nature hiding the experiments three dusty windows barred with iron - nothing in nothing out 

Page 15

Incident of dr Lanyon

Page 16

Pages 22-24

The rosy man had grown pale- direct comparison from red faced  flesh had fallen away - stress weight loss  terror of the mind visibly older and balder  declared himself a doomed man - no hope    if I am the chief of sinners I am am the chief of sufferers also   secrecy private for the hands of g.j utterson alone incase of his predecease destroy unread not to be opened until the death of disappearance of dr Henry Jekyll  inmost corner of his private safe  

Extra thoughts- lanyons death represents the death of religion  hyde rips apart the fabric of Victorian society shocking lanyon a god fearing Victorian gentleman   

Page 17

chapter 7: Incident at the window

Page 18

pages 25

twilight although the sky overhead was still bright with sunset-  still respectable but when darkness [evil] infects London Hyde come out very low it wont last long thank god - foreshadows his death depressed meloncoly  no it is quite impossible -  no reason and Utterson loyal just stays 'last good influence in the lives of down going men' disconsolate prisoner- loss of freedom prisoner to Hyde and of his own doing  hyberbole unable to be solved no comfort prisoner to societies standards alone isolated juxtaposing Utterson who is happy and sticks to the rules  stay down here and speak to you where we are- theme of loyalty and friendship last good influence in the lives of down-going men no questioning just excepts it .  

other notes- Utterson and Enfield are respectable Victorian gentlemen who are happy a juxtaposition to 'disconsolate' Jekyll  this is Stevensons warning to civilisation of what happens when you break societies rules as they are there for a reason or dare to question god    

Page 19

page 26

they saw it- it something non-human animal atavist  not belonging here established through the novella that Hyde is 'it' 'it wasn't like a man but some damned juggernaut  these two words juxtaposing each other one meaning condemned by God to suffer eternal punishment and the other a holy sacrifice  they were both pale there was an unanswering horror in their eyes- pale used to show fear/sickness/hatred  e.g Lanyon after finding out the sawbones reaction to Hyde instantly 

notes- Utterson and Enfield have been used as they are religious men and Hyde is the devil causing them to think irrationally it's something they cannot comprehend  Victorians believe they could see 'it' [evil] on someone's face

chapter 8: the last night

pale moon diaphanous and lawny texture- Hyde controls nature nature is afraid weeping like a woman or a lost soul  i demand to see you  for god sake have mercy   

the double life of decon brody- cabniet  appaled by their own riot  body of a self destroyer   

Page 21

pages 32-33

Page 22

pages 34-35

pale and fearful countenances- pale as a reaction to Hyde reference to both lanyon and sawbones established through novella surely none stranger than itself- itself being hyde in case of disappearence- theme of mystery reference from chapter 2   god grant- gods name in vain god in darkest hour time of need   if you care to hear more turn to the confession of your unworthy and unhappy friend- confession links to forgiveness lanyon died from shock seeing it/devil not worthy of uttersons friendship  sealed in several places- mystery   save his credit - loyal till the end 'like ivy' 'last good influence in the lives of down going men'  

Page 23

chapter 9- Dr Lanyon's narrative

Page 24

page 36-37

if you fail me i am lost  conscience with my death or the shipwreck of my reason- captain goes down with the ship not giving up his belifes to the end his fault he will pay the price lost at sea Lanyon is last hope rock bottom sea water and water is cleansing in religion Noah's ark baptisms drowning symbolises depression  

Page 25

page 39-40

I put him back conscious at his touch of a certain icy pang along my blood- trying to show thanks is dead cold blooded not human repulsed  will you be wise? will you be guided- warning  or has the greed of curiosity too much command you - 7 deadly sins temptation Faust  oh god i screamed oh god- gos name in vain god in darkest hour repenting  pale and shaken and half fainting- reaction to hyde terror  my soul sickened at it- lanyon has a soul to feel but as hyde is not human therefore has no soul and jekyll is hyde so has no remorse tears of penitence- regretting being greedy warning ignored penitence is a religious term for a religious man as he thinks that in gods eyes he was scined 

notes- the devout Lanyon is a metaphore for religion while the heretic Jekyll is one for science Lanyon died after he saw it and lost faith this represents the enevitible death of religion as science thrives. idea of blissful ingnorence  the german legend faust is of a man who sells his soul to the devil for ultimute knowledge this is Jekyll
