Hello, I am looking for someone to write an essay on Compare/contrast Frankenstein and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in relation to the theme of man's dual nature. It needs to be at least 1500 words.

In comparing and contrasting the dual nature of man in Frankenstein and The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, I would first like to elaborate a thought I have about the nature of adolescence. Recently it has struck me that a young person growing up reaches that certain tender age and suddenly begins a serious rebellion against seemingly everything. This rebellion is indeed controlled to some extent by such things as family, school, religion, and the such. But I began to wonder the reason why. There is a point when the fairytale world of which we were all initially raised in, becomes clouded and suddenly uprooted. Things we had once been taught, things we felt that were true are strangely without foundation, and the young adolescent mind must begin to find other ways or other things to depend on to explain presence of evil in the world. Perhaps two of these things are Frankenstein and The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

Thesis

Victor Frankenstein and his monster are prime representatives of man’s nature, as our Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Victor is his monster’s “father”, but is neglectful and unloving. The monster becomes violent because of the neglect his “father” visits upon him. Victor represents man’s drive to achieve, and also man’s inability to always determine what responsibilities and consequences their achievements may bring. The monster represents the human primal side. The part of man that is unfiltered, without emotion and without reason. Similarly, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde represent the dual nature of man. Dr. Jekyll is the logical, thinking, loving side of man. ...

Discussion This, to me is what Mary Shelley and Robert Louis Stevenson encountered in their famous stories of Frankenstein and The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. It is significant for one could say the child growing up to be an adolescent was the country England, the United Kingdom during their time. It was the period of Queen Victoria, when England had managed to climb to the top of the world with all its worldly land acquisitions including India, Australia, Africa and interests in China. Its powerful navy had no seconds. England stood, as the United States today, as the major moral force of the world. But then England had found out things about itself in its growth. It had found out about evil that not only had it witnessed in its climb to the top, but which it too had to pursue and use. Imagine intentionally forcing a whole colony of possible international traders to become opium eaters, as it did in China. There was much more but hence the need of a Victorian strong jacket coat of moral fortitude had to be built, furnished, and locked. There were just things not spoken of. Stevenson's Henry Jekyll knew all about this hiding of evil from his early life as a youth, probably from adolescence. It wasn't a stark sense of evil that it would later become in his creation of Hyde but it was such that at some point in his life he "stood already committed to a profound duplicity of life" (p. 115). As he matured Jekyll began to accept the "through and primitive duality of man" as set.
