Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Forum

Im trying desperatly to write an essay that has to be done by this evening the question is- how far do you agee that the formalist approach to reading jekyll and hyde is inadequete?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, I also need to produce readings using other aproaches such as phscoanylitical aqpproach, structurist approch, marxist approach etc.
-problem is I dont fully understand formalist approach and cannot find my notes!
any help

I do have the same problems, I dont even really understand the story

i hate the book and i'm gonna burn it when we're through with it.
i'm from germany so this so much ahrder for me. i hate formal texts and this is like the most formal text i've ever read.

sorry.

OK - how's this for the pyschoanalytical approach:
In Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, the human was seen as a divided self. Freud’s image of the human is also of a divided self: of warring factions—ego, id, and superego.
