Hyde Flashcards
Like a Damned juggernaut
Adjective contrasts with damned emphasis the power of Hyde’s evil to Enfield
Real evil is the reaction to Hyde
As Stevenson is being ironic as he’s over exaggerating his but all he done is trample on a girl
Little man suggest
Not recognised he’s unmasked

Little suggest Hyde is hidden away and not evil
We would expect alter ego
I am naturally helpless name your figure
Honestly Victorian gentlemen values
Hyde being taken advantage of as he’s asking them what they would like
And £100 lot of money
Downright detestable
Metaphor shoes that Victorian disgust for homosexuality practices his physical appearance provoked disgust and thus is why people cannot name what is wrong with him

- eveuone uneasy as it’s a reflection of themselves
= refuses to admit its them
Stagger the unbelief of Satan
Stop believing in god
Hyde tempts Lanyon as Hyde has power as he can haunt people and not feel guilty about it
= curiosity of lanyon is dangerous
Cry out upon the name of god
Hyde is a character associated with devil but he is praying to god
= doesn’t know right from wrong morally weak character realising he’s in danger and prays to god Stevenson saying how ridiculous Christin faith is and people with no faith - appeal to it
Chapter 10
