Dr Jekyll And Hyde Character Analysis
From chapter one, we can see that, Enfield is Utterson's "distant kinsman, the well-known man about town", and a gentleman with moral personality. When he "was coming home from some place", he sees horrible thing, which is Hyde trampled over a young girl's body and left. Then Enfield catches Hyde and brings him back. From this, Enfield seems like he was just watching this accident rather than rescuing the young girl. Moreover, when a doctor comes and cheek up the girl, Enfield calls him "Sawbones".

    Compare And Contrast Dr Jekyll And Mr Hyde

    In the novel The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson, although Dr. Henry Jekyll and Mr. Edward Hyde are of the same body, they have completely different personalities, as well as completely different physical appearances. While Dr. Jekyll “‘is a tall fine build of a man” (Stevenson 45), Mr. Hyde is described as “pale and dwarfish” (19). This contrasts the stature of both men. Dr. Jekyll is written to be tall, and Mr. Hyde short. The author writes Dr. Jekyll as having a “large handsome face” (24), yet creates a grotesque image for Mr. Hyde by giving him “an impression of deformity” (19) and “a displeasing smile” (19). These two men are written to be extremely different, not only in nature and appearance, but also…
