Duality In Language Flashcards

Q
What is the most notable use of contrasting language ?
A
Enfield describing how Hyde ‘Trampled calmly’ over the young girl
It is an antithetic pairing between the violent and careless action of ‘trampled’ to the ‘calmly’ manor in which he did it
Opposition of language is symbolic of the dual nature found in humans and the character of Jeykll and Hyde
