Page 1 of 2 Far away setting- “I accompanied the whale-fishers on several expeditions to the North Sea; I voluntarily endured cold, famine, thirst, and want of sleep; I often worked harder than the common sailors during the day and devoted my nights to the study of mathematics, the theory of medicine, and those branches of physical science from which a naval adventurer might derive the greatest practical advantage” (letter 1 Walton) Far away unexplored areas like the Artic were very mysterious to people of the 1700’s. This setting creates a tense feeling for the reader because they don’t know much about where the characters are and what could be hiding there. Dark and gloomy places- “We saw many ruined castles standing on the edges of precipices,

In the passage Shelley skillfully paints an intense image in the audience’s mind. Although it should be an exciting moment for Victor, Shelley purposely makes the scene dark, drab, and dreary. She chooses illustrate this scene in a sinister way because this moment is only the beginning of the horrors come. She achieves her dark image by incorporating details such as the lighting, weather, time of day, and even the time of year. All of these details come together to effectively paint a vivid picture of Victor and his creation as he breathes life into it. The imagery in this passage also greatly affects the tone of the passage.

Although some of these labels may be correct, many are misconceptions. The monster, needed to be accepted by society, but instead was scorned, attacked, and shunned because of his outward appearance. The treatment of the monster was on the assumption that he was actually a monster. The only justification of this treatment was his outward appearance.

     In her novel Frankenstein, Mary Shelley explores a wide range of themes concerning human nature through the thoughts and actions of two main characters and a host of others. Two themes are at the heart of the story, the most important being creation, but emphasis is also placed on alienation from society. These two themes are relevant even in today’s society as technology brings us ever closer to Frankenstein’s fictional achievement.

Friends will determine the direction and quality of your life. Loneliness is a battle that all people will once face at a certain point in their life; it is how they handle it that determines the outcome of that battle. In Mary Shelley's Frankenstein loneliness is the most significant and prevailing theme throughout the entire novel. Shelley takes her readers on a wild journey that shows how loneliness can end in tragedy.

     The challenges of race, class, and cultural privileges are frequently questioned, and how a person is perceived by society often is decided upon by these aspects. Although it is an everyday occurrence that a person is judged by what color their skin is or how much money their family has, it is a topic that most feel too uncomfortable to examine. However, Mary Shelley had the courage to verbalize the pain and suffering that results from oppression and judgment. She lets the reader delve into the mind of the subjugated, and in doing so she allows them to challenge the traditional ideas of cultural privilege, race, and class. It is proven that looks determine the way a person is perceived by the contrasting

I sit on my log, lurking in the leaves. I'm starving, but I must be patient. I will never get food unless I lie perfectly still in the jungle undergrowth. All I hear are the endless drones of the insects and the loud chirps and squawks of the jungle birds. All are simply local pests, not large enough to satisfy my hunger. From afar I hear a strange, new noise, similar to the incessant ruckus of the birds, but lower. I concentrate on the noise. Could this be my lunch? The sound comes closer and closer. I hear the leaves and branches rustle. A flock of strange creatures emerge from the brush. If I could laugh I would have! These hideous creatures look like enormous beak-less birds whose feathers have been plucked entirely off except for a small

There is nothing too special about my name. It's said that my name became popular and dedicated to the Legendary Princess Sabrina, an illegitimate daughter of the King of Britain who was drowned by the King's ex-wife out of jealousy. I am often asked if I am named after “Sabrina the Teenage Witch” but no I was not, I'm named after my grandmother who’s middle name is Sabrina. I’m not as familiar with my grandmothers as I would like as she is not really involved in my life. What I do know: Is that she has worked in construction for twenty plus years and is a very unusual and intelligent woman,she grows her own vegetables, and ironically believes in witches and magic.

Several fields have studied the relationship between creator and creation. The most significant aspect of this research considers the difference between nature and nurture. Sociologists, psychologists, scientists, and other professionals have tried to pin down the exact distinctions between these two types of upbringings. In literature, the same questions have been asked and studied using fictional characters, most famously in John Milton’s Paradise Lost, in 1667, and Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, in 1818. The complexity of the characters in these texts creates the theme of nature versus nurture before they diverge and arrive at differing conclusions.

Today I will be telling my story of how I had an encounter with an Imp. I was walking through a swampy marshland, taking a walk out of boredom, when all of a sudden I tripped! When I looked around I saw a teeny tiny creature laughing at me! Then I remembered learning about this creature in class! I remembered how the Imp was only about eight inches short, were known as beasts, and that they only had an XX harmless rating. I wasn't scared since I knew that they were practically harmless to me, but I was nervous. I quickly remembered the Verdimillious charm and cast it very quickly, so that it would get distracted and I could make a quick getaway. Unfortunately I wasn't able to move quickly enough, and found myself casting the Knockback Jinx.

As a young child Victor Frankenstein was loved unconditionally by his parents. They adored him and provided him opportunities and stability to develop into a well-rounded person. Victor becomes a scientist and is intelligent and loves research. As he develops, Victor became obsessed with creating life. He accumulates body parts for the local cemetery and begins to put together his monster. He is confident that he can be like God and has the skills to create life. Victor eventually creates a monster, and he comes to life. However, Victor is horrified by his monster, because of the way it looks. Instead of relishing in the joy of his accomplishment he runs away from it. The monster is left alone to fend for itself and doesn’t have the right skills to take care of his basic needs.

The monster is hurt and because he cannot make physical contact with anyone he decides to observe people secretly. During his observation, he watches human interaction and studies what is socially acceptable and what is not..
