How is Hyde presented as hyde

Mr. Hyde is presented in Robert Louis Stevenson's "Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" as a malevolent and mysterious character. Physically smaller and deformed compared to Dr. Jekyll, Hyde's repulsive appearance serves as an outward reflection of his inner darkness. His behavior is consistently cruel and violent, displaying a complete disregard for societal norms. The novella underscores the transformative nature of Hyde, a manifestation of Dr. Jekyll's suppressed and darker impulses. Witnesses struggle to articulate the exact source of their unease when encountering Hyde, emphasizing the deep disturbance he evokes. Symbolically, Hyde represents the darker facets of human nature, exploring themes of duality and the consequences of unchecked desires. Stevenson masterfully uses Hyde's character to delve into the psychological and moral complexities inherent in the human psyche.
