DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE : MORAL VALUES

Moral values are the lessons that the reader learns after reading the story. The moral values in the novel are:

i. Good will overcome evil and all bad things will come to an end.

- No matter what bad things happened and how it happened, in the end of the story everything turn up settled. Bad things that happened eventually come to an end.

ii. Man must control his desires or else it will be disastrous. We must be responsible for our actions.

- Dr.Jekyll was not responsible for his evil acts. He created another image and used him to commit his cruel and evil acts. As a doctor, his duty is to save lives but instead he created Hyde to do the things he could not do as a respected doctor.

iii. The value of friendship and loyalty. Friends stay with each other in times of trouble or uncertainties.

- Dr Jekyll’s good friends, Mr Utterson and Dr Lanyon cared very much for him. It was Dr Jekyll who did not appreciate their friendship and secretly indulged in unlawful experiments to satisfy hi fancies. However, Dr Lanyon followed his instructions and watched Hyde transform. What he saw eventually killed him.

iv. We must think rationally when we make decisions

- Dr Jekyll believed that there are two sides to a person’s character- the good and the bad. He attempts to follow his heart’s desire to separate the good and evil parts in man so that he can enjoy his evil doing’s without being caught. But his experiment was only successful for a short while and it brought him discontentment and unhappiness.
