About a week has passed, and I am now finishing this statement under the influence of the last of the old powders. This, then, is the last time, short of a miracle, that Henry Jekyll can think his own thoughts or see his own face (now how sadly altered!) in the glass. Nor must I delay too long to bring my writing to an end; for if my narrative has hitherto escaped destruction, it has been by a combination of great prudence and great good luck. Should the throes of change take me in the act of writing it, Hyde will tear it in pieces; but if some time shall have elapsed after I have laid it by, his wonderful selfishness and circumscription to the moment will probably save it once again from the action of his ape-like spite.

And indeed the doom that is closing on us both has already changed and crushed him. Half an hour from now, when I shall again and forever

reindue

that

hated personality, I know how I shall sit shuddering and weeping in my chair, or continue, with the most strained and fearstruck

ecstasy of listening, to pace up and down this room (my last earthly

refuge) and give ear to every sound of menace. Will Hyde die upon the scaffold? or will he find courage to release himself at the last moment? God knows; I am careless; this is my true hour of death, and what is to follow concerns another than myself. Here then, as I lay down the pen and proceed to seal up my confession, I bring the life of that unhappy Henry Jekyll to an end.Slide10

Question a) – 30 MINUTESRead the question and UNDERLINE key words (theme/character)Read through the extract with your coloured pens/highlighters.

1. Look for significant words

2. Look for imagery

3. Think about structural elementsSlide21

Question a) – 30 MINUTESRead the question and UNDERLINE key words (theme/character)Read through the extract with your coloured pens/highlighters.

1. Look for significant words

2. Look for imagery

3. Think about structural elements“doom”“scaffold”

“release”“destruction”“miracle”

“confession”“ecstasy”

WORDS: are they powerful or evocative? Is there any repetition? Is there a strong semantic field?

DEATH

RELIGIONSlide22

Question a) – 30 MINUTESRead the question and UNDERLINE key words (theme/character)Read through the extract with your coloured pens/highlighters.

1. Look for significant words

2. Look for imagery

3. Think about structural elements“the doom that is closing on us both”

IMAGERY: What does it describe? How does it affect the reader? Is it echoed or repeated elsewhere in the novel?

Suggests that death is coming… linked to the rest of the novel where it seems that things are getting worse and worse e.g. when

Utterson

breaks into Jekyll’s lab.

ALSO creates the image that the walls are ‘closing’ in – as if Jekyll is trapped an claustrophobic.Slide23

Question a) – 30 MINUTESRead the question and UNDERLINE key words (theme/character)Read through the extract with your coloured pens/highlighters.

1. Look for significant words

2. Look for imagery

3. Think about structural elements

Jekyll is telling this part of the story – this is the FIRST TIME we get the truth, so the reader would be gripped by this section!This is the END of the novel, so it is very dramatic!

Jekyll keeps talking about death, so it signals to the reader that he dies at the end of the novel.

STRUCTURE: WHERE does this come in the novel? Is this a point of change? Building tension? An Ending? A Beginning? WHO is telling this part of the story?Slide24

Question a) – 30 MINUTES How does Stevenson present the characters of Jekyll and Hyde in this extract?

We have just spent time talking through this. You should have notes on the extract in front of you. Write a paragraph for each idea you have. Start with the best one!

Aim to write at least three paragraphs

Stevenson presents Jekyll as…

Jekyll appears distraught and confused in the extract because…At the end of the novel…

The word, ‘…’ is significant because…The image, ‘…’ creates…

Write for 25 minutes…Slide25

Question b) – 30 MINUTES How is the theme of duality explored elsewhere in the novel?Read the question and highlight key words (themes/characters) THINK about

three

events/descriptions/places/characters/ideas in the novel which could answer the question…Slide26

Question b) –

30 MINUTES

How is the theme of duality explored elsewhere in the novel?

DUALITY

Jekyll & Hyde are two halves of the same man…

Good and evil… “demon” “devil”

“black secrets, by the look of him; secrets compared to which poor Jekyll's worst would be like sunshine.”

Two sides of London… “sinister…discoloured…neglect”

“polished…gaiety”

Contrast Hyde and Carew…

“black secrets, by the look of him; secrets compared to which poor Jekyll's worst would be like sunshine.”

Two sides of London… “sinister…discoloured…neglect”

“polished…gaiety”

Contrast Hyde and Carew…

You DO NOT need a big introduction! ONE sentence is enough:

Stevenson presents duality in the novel through his use of characters and setting…

Aim to write FOUR paragraphs. For each one give a relevant QUOTATION and talk about DUALITY

BIG PICTURE: HOW is duality significant to the novel as a whole? What is Stevenson saying about mankind?

Write for 25 minutes…Slide28
