Answer:

The role of Dr. Jekyll is that of a doctor who, within the search for himself and the liberation of his "evil" part, makes the mistake of separating the two parts, good and bad, into two beings whose vision of ethics and morality were completely opposite.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the literary novel Henry Jekyll has realized the ambiguity of which every person suffers, where a man must bear the burden with his good and bad personalities, which overwhelms him to the point of wanting to free himself from the evil part by means of of a formula created by himself, with which he creates two completely different beings, on the one hand the renowned and esteemed doctor Jekyll who usually thinks about the benefit of others, on the other hand Mr. Hyde who is not afraid to murder or harm to another person.
