Themes
1. The good and evil sides of Man
2. Friendship and loyalty
3. Women and Feminity
4. Science

1.Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Theme of Good vs. Evil

Good vs. evil is basically the novel’s biggest theme. More specifically, Dr. Jekyll and Mr.
Hyde is easily viewed as an allegory about the good and evil that exist in all men, and about
our struggle with these two sides of the human personality. In this book, then, the battle
between good and evil rages within the individual. The question is which is superior. Since
Hyde seems to be taking over, one could argue that evil is stronger than good. However,
Hyde does end up dead at the end of the story, perhaps suggesting a weakness or failure of
evil. The big question, of course, is whether or not good can be separated from evil, or
whether the two are forever intertwined.

2.Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Theme of Friendship

Friendship in Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde serves to drive the plot forward. Aside from human
curiosity, Mr. Utterson is compelled to uncover the mystery of the evil man because of his
friendship with Dr. Jekyll. In trying to unravel the secret, his many friendships deliver crucial
pieces of information. In this sense, friendship acts as both a motivator and an enabler. As for
the friendship between Dr. Lanyon and Dr. Jekyll, it’s certainly not as unconditional as the
loyalty Mr. Utterson bears for Dr. Jekyll. Instead, it’s fraught with competition, anger, and
eventually an irreconcilable quarrel. We see that friendships can be ruined by differences of
opinion.

3. Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Theme of Women and Femininity

Most female characters in Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde are passive and weak. The first female we
see is a young girl mowed over by Mr. Hyde. Although she is "not much the worse, more
frightened," she still kicks up an incredible fuss and a large group of people come to her aid.
The next woman we see is via a maid’s narrative of the Carew murder. After witnessing the
murder, she faints, awakening long after the murderer is gone. She is a passive spectator. There
is much speculation as to the reasons for the absence of females in the story; one particularly
compelling argument is that women function as moral bedrocks in most Victorian novels.
They’re supposed to be beacons of good moral influence. In Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde therefore,
women may have unnecessarily complicated the story.

4.Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Theme of Science

In Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, science becomes a cover and justification for supernatural
activities. Dr. Jekyll ostensibly derives his potion in some sort of scientific manner as opposed to
finding a magical amulet or something that releases evil as you might find in other stories. Dr.
Jekyll’s brand of science, however, veers towards the "transcendental" (indeed, supernatural),
while Dr. Lanyon adheres to a more traditional set of scientific notions. This disagreement
causes an irreparable rift in their relationship, especially after Dr. Lanyon witnesses Dr.
Jekyll’s transformation with his own eyes.
