Care for a ramble card? Ramble about anything and everything and anything you want for as long as you want

Aha thank you, this is a good excuse for me to talk for no reason /lh I suppose I'll discuss one of my theories about Jekyll and Hyde. One of my main theories is that Dr Jekyll lives at 28 Leicester Square. I'm pretty sure most people have this as a head canon but I'd like to go into a lot more detail about it. So, first of all, John Hunter was a surgeon in the mid-late 1700s and he was known for buying bodies and taking them in through the backdoor of his house so that he could experiment and dissect them. This, obviously, caused an uproar amongst the people of England and the debate ensued about whether it was "for the greater good" because the only way we can learn about the human body so that we can treat people is through an autopsy. Now, how does this relate to Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde? Well, at the beginning of chapter 5 it was said that Jekyll "had bought the house from the heirs of a celebrated surgeon" Suggesting that perhaps he had brought the house off of Dr Hunter. There is also a similarity not only in house the house is structured, with the main part of the house being separate to the theatre and cabinet to the point where the back door and the front door face completely different streets, but also on the basis that R.L.S also created a short story The Bodysnatcher 1884 (2 years before J&H was published) which suggested that Stevenson already had knowledge of bodysnatching and therefore must have heard about the tale of John Hunter. Thus leading me to believe that whilst it is not a directly spoken element of the story, Jekyll's House was heavily and consciously implied to be John Hunters house. Another reason why I particularly like this idea of this is that Leicester Square is only a ten minute walk from Soho which is where Hyde lives. I like this because Leicester square is shown to be quite a middle class residence (as shown on The Charles Booth 1898 map) whereas Soho was riddled with a mix of people ranging from those living comfortably and those who lived in extreme poverty. This links to the duality of man showing that despite these neighbourhoods being close, there is still such a difference between them. However it also relates to the profiling theory that some criminals like to stick close to their home base, showing that Jekyll chose a house for Hyde in Soho so that he could easily retreat to his own home if something were to go wrong, hence why Hyde has run of Jekyll's house. So to conclude, Stevenson made a conscious decision to have Jekyll's house at 28 Leicester square because it was John Hunter's house who was an unethical doctor too and also because it's close to Soho. :D So sorry this is very long but nonetheless a fun ramble. Thank you
