Mr. Lanyon tells Utterson: "It is more than ten years since Henry Jekyll became too fanciful for me. He began to go wrong, wrong

in mind; and though of course I continue to take an interest in him for old sake’s sake as they say, I see and I have seen devilish little of the man. Such unscientific balderdash," added the doctor, flushing suddenly purple, "would have estranged Damon and Pythias." In the above passage, what is the intended meaning of the word fanciful?

Answer:

C). Beyond the realm of reality and/or sanity .

Explanation:

As per the question, the implied or intended meaning of the word 'fanciful' would be 'beyond the realm of reality and/or sanity' as reflected by the context cues provided by the author. The literal meaning of the word is 'something imaginative, fantastic, or unreal' which connotes(as per the passage) that <u>Jekyll became quite 'unrealistic or capricious.' He displays an 'overimaginative and impractical behavior' which is reflected through his 'going wrong in mind, unscientific, and estranged actions.'</u> Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
