Answer: It is used as a negative and ironic word to describe Brutus.
Explanation:
<em>In Act III, Scene I </em>of <em>Julius Caesa</em>r, Caesar is brutally murdered by jealous conspirators.
<em>In Act III, Scene II</em>, Antony, a friend of Caesar's, argues that Brutus and his accomplices are<em> 'honorable'</em>. However, the constant repetition of this attribute creates the opposite effect.
Antony states that Brutus, an honorable man, said that Caesar was ambitious, and that Caesar has paid the price for this serious flaw. In this context, the word honorable is contrasted with the underlying accusations of murder, and thus carries the completely opposite meaning - that Brutus and his accomplices are murderers and are dishonorable.

Answer:
In the final chapter, Jekyll's letter highlights one of the main themes of the novel, the dual nature of man. It is this concept that caused him to pursue his disastrous experiments that led to his downfall. Hyde, the personification of Jekyll's purely evil characteristics, revels in the freedom of an anonymous existence. Although he successfully distills his evil side, Jekyll still remains a combination of good and evil. Thus, when transforming back and forth, his evil side grows stronger and more powerful after years of repression, and is able to take over completely. In this way, Jekyll's experiments are the opposite of what he hoped. Interestingly, as is repeatedly mentioned throughout the novel, Hyde is a small man often called dwarfish, while Jekyll is a man of large stature. Thus, the reader is left to assume that Jekyll's evil side is much weaker and less developed than his good side. However, appearances can be deceiving. In fact, Hyde's strength far out powers Jekyll's.
In his letter, Jekyll clearly states that he felt no guilt about Hyde's actions, as "Henry Jekyll stood at times aghast before the acts of Edward Hyde, but the situation was apart from ordinary laws, and insidiously relaxed the grasp of conscience. It was Hyde, after all, and Hyde alone, that was guilty." To the reader, this explanation seems ridiculous, because Hyde is in fact part of Jekyll, and a being that Jekyll created. Therefore, clearly Jekyll is responsible for the man's actions.
