Spider Web
Transcript: Spider Web: How a Gift Contributes to the Meaning of the Works. In the three texts Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, The Neurology of Free Will: Angie Bachmann, and Breaking the Habit, the idea of a “gift” is given to the protagonists. While it was left with good intention it causes these characters to show the side of their human nature that is inherently bad. The protagonists have to battle between breaking the habit of showing the benevolent side of their human nature to society or letting their guilty pleasures consume them. Thesis “I don’t know what’s worth for fighting for Or why I have to scream I don’t know why I instigate And say what I don’t mean I don’t know how I got this way I know it’s not alright” Breaking the Habit Breaking the Habit “Memories consume, like opening the wound I’m picking me apart again” “Clutching my cure, I tightly lock the door I try to catch my breath again I hurt much more than anytime, before I had no options left again.” “I don’t want to be the one The battles always choose… I’m the one confused” "It felt like I couldn't say no, like whenever they dangled the smallest temptation of me, my brain would shut off." Angie Bachmann Angie Bachmann "But whenever she hit the casino those tensions would float away." “It was a new sensation, so unexpected that she hardly knew it was a problem until it had taken hold of her life.” “She hardly knew it was a problem until it had taken hold of her life” “But time began at last to obliterate the freshness of my alarm; the praises of conscience began to grow into a thing of course; I began to be tortured with throes and longings, as of Hyde struggling after freedom; and at last, in an hour of moral weakness, I once again compounded and swallowed the transforming draught.” Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde “At that time my virtue slumbered; my evil, kept awake by ambition” “Not that I dreamed of resuscitating Hyde; the bare idea of that would startle me to frenzy: no, it was in my own person that I was once more tempted to trifle with my conscience; and it was as an ordinary secret sinner that I at last fell before the assaults of temptation.” “Under the strain of this continually impending doom and by the sleeplessness to which I now condemned myself, ay, even beyond what i had thought possible to man, I became, in my own person, a creature eaten up and emptied by fever, languidly weak both in body and mind, and solely occupied by one thought: the horror of my other self.”
