7 0

The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde talks about the duality of human nature. What is Duality? It's a philosophical theory that the world can be divided in two basic entities. In the novel it's good versus evil. As we go through the novel, we realize that humans have both good and evil and one without the other can't exist.

Dr. Jekyll has a socially accepted behavior, but he also wants to do things he has been told all his life not to do. That's why he creates Mr. Hyde, and in a way he releases all his demons. Mr. Hyde takes joy in being evil and doing bad things. But soon Dr. Jekyll realizes that good and bad balance each other, as evil starts to take over.

Basically, the novel talks about the good and evil that exits in every person. We need both to have a balanced life.

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

The title 'The Accursed House' is relevant to the story as it depicts a society that is accursed with negative thoughts.

Explanation:

The Accursed House is a short story written by Emile Gabriau. The story is a sarcasm on the society where we live in, which does not get suspicious when people charge extra or does something bad but when stores charges less and do something good to you.

The author has used the sarcasm to portray a society 'under curse' (accurse) which represents the shallow thoughts of people. It presents a society where people are accursed with negativity.

Thus the title of the story 'The Accursed House' is relevant to the story as it depicts a society accursed with negativity and negative mind-set.
