STUDIES

Now I'm finishing 4th ESO with scientific electives because before I had another idea of ​​science and wanted to study scientific baccalaureate and psychology but when I started biology ang physics this year my idea changed radically. Now I want to study humanistic baccalaureate but my current problem is very difficult for me to get over the sciences subjects, anyway I will pass "scientific" 4th ESO and then I will do humanistic baccalaureate. After that I want to study sociology and human resources at the university.
I choose that baccalaureate because I like philosophy and arts, literature and that kind of things.
I think I did wrong when I chose sciences but everybody makes mistakes. Now I have to study a lot and do a lot of things to pass but it's okay. However,  when I finish this I will be proud of myself and I will be very happy to start studying things I like a lot.

'Curator Greg Buzwell considers duality in Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, exploring how the novel engages with contemporary debates about evolution, degeneration, consciousness, homosexuality and criminal psychology.'

About evolution and degeneration, Dr Jekyll was a good man but Mr Hyde was evil. 

Double lives and misleading appearences, double-consciousness just as the differing appearances of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde play upon the theories emerging from Charles Darwin’s work, so their differing personalities explore contemporary debates about moral behaviour and the possible plurality of human consciousness.Jekyll ,homosexuality and blackmail were frequently linked in this period.
