    Robert Louis Stevenson was born in Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland, in 1850. His parents wanted him to become an engineer like his father, but he studied law at Edinburgh University.

  • 12. The 'Double' in 19th-century Fiction

    A ‘double’ looks exactly like another person, while the phrase a ‘double personality’ is used about a person who behaves in two very different ways. Stevenson’s novel is so famous that in modern English the phrase ‘a Jekyll and Hyde character’ refers to a person whose behaviour varies enormously. But there are other stories in which the theme of the ‘double’ is important. [...]

  • 13. The Sad Conclusion

    I was Edward Hyde and the police in London were looking everywhere for me! London was dangerous for Edward Hyde, the murderer. I needed the powders from the laboratory. But how to get them? I did not trust the servants. Then I had an idea. I remembered Dr Lanyon. He could go to the laboratory for me! I went to a hotel and I wrote a letter to Dr Lanyon. I asked him to go to the laboratory and to bring the powders to his house. [...]
