"William Wilson" by Edgar Allan Poe explores the duality of human nature and the struggle between good and evil within oneself. The tale delves into themes of identity, conscience, and the consequences of one's actions. Ultimately, it serves as a cautionary tale about the consequences of leading a life driven by vanity and immorality.
In Edgar Allan Poe's 'William Wilson,' the narrator's second self or mirror image, serves as both his alter ego, as well as his conscience, and manages to prevent him from committing crimes or engaging in immoral behavior. It eventually becomes apparent that the double has been created by the narrator, who is obviously insane.
William Wilson is about the human mind and how it can defeat evil and be good. The story uses a criminal character to explore how men can receive freedom from his crimes and sins. Poe argues it is within control and possibliity that criminals can be freed from their deeds and consciences.
