One of the characteristics of Victorian life that The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde exhibits is the preoccupation of people with good and evil, and barbarism and civilization.

The Victorian period was a time during which England was conquering many new territories. As the empire expanded, many of the cultures that came to be included in the British empire practiced acts that English people considered barbaric and uncivilized, much like the acts of Mr. Hyde. These acts reflected a human nature that the Victorians wanted to control through habits, politeness and proper behaviour. The Victorians were concerned that barbarism might not only be found in other societies, but that it might be present among them, underneath a layer of good behaviour, much like Mr. Hyde was an intrinsic part of Dr. Jekyll.
