Robert Louis Stevenson's "The Strange Case Of Dr. Jekyll And Mr. Hyde"
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. Robert Louis Stevenson's The Strange Case Of Dr. Jekyll And Mr. Hyde illustrates the manner by which social status establishes a primary element of acceptance, inasmuch as Dr. Layons, Mr. Utterson and Mr. Enfield are able to overlook Dr. Jekyll's indiscretions due to his class distinction. Indeed, are all professional men of the upper-middle class, while Mr. Poole is a trusted servant – the code of behavior among these men remains constant even in spite of one member's significant deviation. Clearly, if Jekyll were not one of the set his colleagues' reactions would be quite diverse in nature, inasmuch as the code of behavior extends far beyond the scope of superficiality.

Robert Lowell/Skunk Hour
[ send me this essay ]
A 7 page explication of Robert Lowell's poem "Skunk Hour," which was written in 1959 and describes Lowell's impressions of a Maine sea town (Lowell 131). At the beginning of the poem, that is, the first four stanzas, Lowell describes a sterile, decaying setting, which he tries to lighten with a "tone of tolerance, humor and randomness at the sad prospect" (Lowell 131). However, even in this section of the poem, Lowell's perspective drifts as it "sinks out of sight into the causal, chancy arrangements of nature and decay" (Lowell 131). Then, in the later half of the poem, i.e., the last four stanzas, Lowell's tone dramatically changes as he describes the "dark night" of his soul, which is not "gracious, but secular, puritan and agnostical. An Existentialist night" (Lowell 132). A close reading of this poem demonstrates the accuracy of Lowell's personal assessment of his poem's meaning. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
