Resumen del Recurso
Jekyll and Hyde Chapter 1
Reader is introduced to Utterson and Enfield
Chapter introduces Gabriel Utterson, a well-respected lawyer
Who narrative the majority of the novella is in
Utterson's a typical Victorian gentleman
He's "embarrassed" in conversations and hides his emotions
He's rational - as a lawyer he deals in facts and evidence
Utterson and Enfield appear to have nothing in common, but they enjoy spending time together
Two men go on Sunday walks together during which they say "nothing"
Their silence creates suspense and a lack of information
In Victorian society, discretion was preferred to gossip
It's Enfield's rule not to ask questions if something seems suspicious
He doesn't want to know about immoral behaviour
However Utterson is often "the last reputable acquaintance" of men who have ruined their reputation
Suggests that he's more tolerant of sins of others
Sets the scene for the start of the mystery
Utterson and Enfield walk down a prosperous street in London
Shown by the condition of the houses, which have "freshly painted shutters" and "well-polished brasses"
One building with "nothing but a door" contrasts with the other buildings
Stevenson uses negative adjectives such as "sinister" and "sordid" to make it stand out as unusual
Later in the chapter we're told that Mr Hyde has a key to the building and has been inside
Link is important as Hyde and the building are both sinister and disturbing
Enfield's story introduces Mr Hyde
Enfield tells Utterson that he saw Hyde trample a young girl
Enfield's language emphasises how evil Hyde is
He describes him as "like Satan"
Hyde "calmly" tramples over the little girl
Shows how easily he does violent things
When he produces a cheque signed by a man whose name Enfield won't mention - creates mystery
Enfield can't put his finger on why Hyde makes him feel so uncomfortable
He says "I never saw a man I so disliked, and yet I scarce know why" - hints at an unusual evil within Hyde
Reputation
Was important among upper and middle class Victorians
Utterson and Enfield promise not to discuss Hyde - whose cheque is signed by Henry Jekyll, in order to protect Jekyll's reputation
