Description
Robert Louis Stevenson was one of the giants of the adventure novel, but he was also one of the great connoisseurs of human mentality, which is why he would sooner or later write an everlasting classic like El extraño caso del doctor Jekyll y el señor Hyde. As a lucid witness to the Industrial Revolution in the United Kingdom, Stevenson reflects on the limits of methods and the scientific ethics, and above all, in an absorbent and unforgettable manner, the duality between good and bad. Robert Louis Stevenson fue uno de los gigantes de la novela de aventuras pero también fue uno de los grandes conocedores de la mentalidad humana, por lo que era de rigor que tarde o temprano escribiera un clásico imperecedero como El extraño caso del doctor Jekyll y el señor Hyde (1886). Lúcido testigo de la Revolución Industrial ocurrida en el Reino Unido, Stevenson reflexiona acerca de los límites del método y de la ética científicos, pero, sobre todo y de una manera absorbente e inolvidable, de la dualidad entre el bien y el mal.
