1. Initiation
The human psyche is an appealing and complex construct that varies from individual to individual. And it is particularly difficult to walk in a serial killer’s shoe’s and understand his or her actions. A case eminently hard to see through and to comprehend is the Jack the Ripper case. Jack the Ripper was as Serial Killer who murdered In Whitechapel, London, in the late 19th century. And because his identity is still unknown, I am particularly interested in his case and therefore chose it to be the topic for this research paper.
I will walk in his shoe’s and reveal, what person the Ripper was rather than being able to reenact the Ripper’s decisions and actions.
In the following pages I am going to compare and contrast the Jack …show more content…
Kerri Maniscalco didn’t mince her words and portrayed the murders as cruel and horrifying as they really were, as far as we know from the historic facts. In this novel, we also encounter five victims, the same five that the Ripper actually killed, and the dates also didn’t change. Also, the ferocity of the case has no differences from the fiction novel to the proven historical facts. The only thing that differs from the novel to the bygone reality is the perspective of how the deed gets told. In Maniscalco’s “Stalking Jack the Ripper”, we follow the investigation of Audrey Rose and her companion Thomas Cresswell, two forensic students, in Whitechapel during 1888, the year in which the murders occurred. The historic facts are collection of information obtained by witnesses, Scotland yard investigations, forensic and medical reports and the research of historians. Of course, Kerri Maniscalco most likely received her information from this gathering of information, but she put it in a whole new story from a completely different perspective. From a young girl, with a for her gender during that time uncommon passion: science and crime. Additionally, although the historic facts, which basically are this collection of information from several sources chiefly give assumptions and theories on the perpetrator and his impulse and objective based on this final gathering of information. In the novel, we trail the investigations of the forensic students from the first murder to the last and we get to know every single theory and how those change with newly gathered information and the following murders. So, besides the final theory, which Kerri Maniscalco expresses with a revelation, we get to see the development of every single theory to the final one, which normally comes too short in every historic paper or article.
