Presentation transcript:

JEKYLL AND HYDE: WRAP UP

“I Am Legend” Reflection  Alternate Ending  By the end of the novel Neville is held up in a prison, awaiting his fate  Vampires and Zombies are myths to us, they are legends  In the book, Robert Neville becomes "legendary" because he is that myth and goes out day after day hunting them  Neville has become to vampires what vampires used to be to people: An unnatural monster with special powers, a creepy horror that kills indiscriminately

“I Am Legend” Response Questions  In what way(s) is Neville responsible for his situation?  “The strength of the vampire is that no one will believe in him” belief  What does belief have to do with it? How do you see the role of science & religion play out?  How does sympathy create or destroy monsters?  Can we have science without sympathy?

Major Themes  Isolation & madness  Extreme dependence on science & technology forces us to resort to primal instincts… why?  Obsession  He continues to test despite the clearly disastrous results  Normalcy anchors humanity

FRANKENSTEIN & PROMETHEUS

Who is Frankenstein?  Young scientist Victor Frankenstein  Creates a creature in an unorthodox scientific experiment  “creature” “monster” “demon” “it”  Prometheus

THE VALUE OF SCIENCE & THE FUTURE OF HAPPINESS

Future of Happiness Questions 1. According to Aristotle, virtues become vices when they are taken to the extreme. How does the story of Jekyll & Hyde demonstrate this? Can you think of other real life examples of this phenomenon? 2. How can Dr. Jekyll’s fate be used to foreshadow the future of our happiness (according to Stevenson) if we continue to be so dependent on science and technology? 3. Do you agree that the “the future of happiness” lies in the pursuit of science and technology? Why or why not? 4. What is your biggest fear about the advancement of technology?

Richard Feynman   American Physicist  Assisted in the development of the atomic bomb during WWII  Pioneered quantum computing and nanotechnology Are scientists monsters?

The Value of Science 1. When does the pursuit of knowledge go too far? 2. Is too much knowledge a bad thing? 3. What are the limits of science? 4. Should mankind have the power to control and manipulate life? 5. What role do/should scientists play in shaping society and dealing with social problems?  Should we give scientists so much power and freedom?
