AB In this final project what I am going to work on is an approach to the concept of the monster in relation to Robert Louis Stevenson's book the Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Stevenson's different vision of the figure of the monster. I am also going to relate this to the historical and later on mythical character of Jack the Ripper, who happened to commit his crimes not long after Stevenson released his book, and the different speculations revolving around him. This finsl project will also include how this comes in relation with the English society of that time and Stevenson's interpretation of the dualty of human nature. This means, reflecting on the similarities between both the fictional character Dr. Jekyll and his other salt Mr. Hyde and the culprit of the so called Whitechapel Murders. I will also mention how all of this affected the reception of Stevenson's work during these times. The beginning of a new concept of monster. Physical aspect as a representation of the real interior self
