Example Of Protagonist Character

Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Hyde is an evil double of the honorable Dr. Jekyll. Jekyll creates Hyde by scientific experiments, to prove his statement: “… man is not truly one, but truly two.” He means that the human soul is a mixture of evil and good, and Hyde is the manifestation of the evil that existed in Dr. Jekyll. As a respectable Victorian gentleman, Jekyll can never fulfill the evil desires existing in him. Therefore, he separates his “evil-self,” giving him a separate identity. However, as Vladimir Nabokov explains in an introduction to the Signet Classic version of the book, "[Jekyll] is a composite being, a mixture of good and bad...[and] Jekyll is not really transformed into Hyde but projects a concentrate of pure evil that becomes Hyde” (Stevenson 60). Unfortunately, rather than separating and equalizing these forces of good and evil, Jekyll's potion only allows his purely evil side to gain strength. Jekyll is in fact a combination of good and evil, but Hyde is only pure evil. Thus, there is never a way to strengthen or separate Jekyll's pure goodness. Without counterbalancing his evil identity, Jekyll allows Hyde to grow increasingly strong, and eventually take over entirely, perhaps entirely destroying all the pure goodness Jekyll ever

Although some argue that Good vs. Evil is not the best fitting theme because if one side of a person is evil, the whole is evil. Certainly, this may be true, but Dr.Jekyll was always trying to right Mr. Hyde’s wrongs. Throughout the book, Dr.Jekyll does all he can to be in control of his dark side. He tries to cover his mistakes up and fight the urge to transform into Hyde. He fights for his good side to win.

The explicitness of the descriptions of two seemingly two separate men make it seem as though they are in fact two men caught up in dangerous business. Only through the foreshadowing through the pervasive theme of
