Each of these entities exists on its own.

Therefore, good does not need a justification from evil for its manifestation. Henry Jekyll admits that on daily basis his intellectual as well as moral being is in agreement that a human being can not exists in one personality. Hyde in order to have each of the personalities involving in a lifestyle that is independent of one another. Jekyll who is fed up with his dual nature of life those he posses finally succeeds in performing some experiments to himself in overcoming the complete part of evil in him that is the Mr. Henry Jekyll as a hero who understands his evil nature.

Never the less, the dual existence of the soul of human beings together with the body is clearly stipulated and outlined by the body. For instance Christianity a religion in which Stevenson’s belong, does not support the fact that people should have dual personalities. The force of bad and good are always in conflict and the force of good finally overpowers that of evil. For example during the creation of the earth, the two forces were in existence where evil was purported result from powerful forces who were bad or good depending on what brought good tidings to the community or vice versa. In spite of the two components being in opposition, they do coexist.ĭualism of the soul is what differentiates some religions especially those that believe in the existence of evil. The two components are the component of good as well that component of evil. Just as Jekyll and Hyde brings the theme of dualism, the universe in which we dwell admits the fact that there exist two components. The theme thus becomes what is now called Jekyll and Hyde which means an individual is extremely different when it comes to morality changing from one moral status to the other. Robert Louis brings out two different personalities in Henry Jekyll with purely contradicting morality levels.
