They do not receive important lessons for life, and may not be kind towards their friends. The reaction of others

Another feeling that comes into play is his feeling of love and possession toward his creature. Frankenstein sees that the creature is good natured and means no harm, but he is still reluctant to accept him because of the consequences of that would follow from his fellow men due to their fear of him. When the creature forces Frankenstein to listen to his story, Frankenstein feels pity and feels conflicted because he created the creature only to have him live like an outcast. This contributes to the overall tones of confusion and betrayal in the book. The readers expect Frankenstein to love and care for his creature, but his desire to conform interferes and results in his betrayal and abandonment of the creature, which in turn results in the creature betraying and killing people. It shows readers that the desire for love and acceptance is dominant over loyalty and a sense of duty to

Another aspect of romanticism that is prevalent in Shelly’s novel is the way Frankenstein, and his creation, are controlled by their emotions. Frankenstein is continually ruled by his feelings of fear, guilt, and love throughout the novel. For instance, he works for nearly two years to accomplish his goal of creating life, only to immediately flee because of fear when his work comes to life. This was a major illustration for the reader that despite being an experienced scientist Frankenstein was still ruled by emotions. In a large portion of the novel Frankenstein seems to be completely motivated by his fear of the creature he created. When his brother died, he feared people discovering his secret so he let an innocent woman stand trial. When the monster requested a partner, his fear of the monster propelled him to try, only to have his fear of having two creatures alive stop him from completing the work. At the end of the story, Frankenstein’s anger over the death of his family members propelled him to chase the creature across the frozen waters, which lead to his death. Frankenstein was a brilliant thinker who was continually consumed and motivated by his emotions. Frankenstein’s creation was also very much controlled by his emotions. After he is created and Frankenstein flees from him, he searches across the land to find companions. The creature is repeatedly rejected because of his looks, and because of that he is self-conscience of the fact that he is

Tragic hero’s can come in all shapes and sizes. They may appear as a villain in multiple works of literature. In the novel, Frankenstein, by Mary Shelley, the tragic hero is the creature. He is a main character whose faults led to his overall downfall. Often, the creature is misinterpreted by people to be named Frankenstein because he is such a prominent character. While the creature is able to identify the faults in mankind it is only after extreme suffering on his own part.

Mary Shelley’s novel, Frankenstein, is a timeless tale of a creature who was made out of mismatched parts and that was made alive by his creator, Victor Frankenstein. The story trails both characters as they interact with each other and the world around them. Throughout the novel, the creature makes multiple references towards the Bible. Just after the formation of the creature, Frankenstein flees the scene because he did not want to face it because he found it to be hideous. He even goes as far to call the creature a “fiend, demon, and a wretch.” One of the most evident relations to Genesis results when the first interaction occurs since Frankenstein abandoned the creature. The creature says, “Remember, that I am thy creature; I ought to be

Creation is the act of producing or cause of something to enter into existence and destruction is the act of eliminating something from existence. In Mary Shelley’s novel Frankenstein, the main character Victor Frankenstein has a duality of character in which he is both creator and destroyer. This is evident in the novel through examples such as his self-isolation to develop an understanding of anatomy as well as to construct the monster, destroys his relationships with his family. Even through his creation of the monster Victor unknowingly brings about the deaths of people close to him; William, Henry Clerval, and Elizabeth. Victor Frankenstein’s duality as a creator and destroyer has a negative impact on himself and others, due to the

Throughout the novel Frankenstein written by Mary Shelley, the creature is subjected to countless acts of violence and rejection. For a monster to develop, one must have been formerly exploited either by an individual or their society. The creature is not only a physical product of science, but his atrocious behavior is also an explicit result of Victor’s actions toward him. The creature was not born a monster, but slowly morphed into one as he experiences violence and rejection from his society.

A novel’s setting contributes to the atmosphere of a story in a myriad of ways. Setting provides insight of a character’s point of view, the culture of a specific time, and transports the reader to another world. In Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, Shelley describes breathtaking scenes of nature in immense detail. Her descriptions of the Alps and the destroyed tree relate to the pursuit of knowledge, power and the idea of “playing God”, by providing places of contemplation and comparison for a reader to ponder on these issues.

One responsibility of a creator is to take responsibility of their creation, instead of abandoning it, they should nurture it. The creator should love their creation despite anything because it is something they created and their minds are still innocent; the creation just wants attention and to be loved. After Victor created his creation, he referred to him as a hideous monster because of how he looked. The creation in Shelley’s story emphasizes the loneliness of growing up feeling “miserable and abandoned,” (Shelley 165), and how Victor’s job as a creator was not carried out.

In the novel Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, man tries to tamper with nature. This is an enormous mistake, because his experiences prove that man should respect the omnipotent power of nature so man can be happy. Man should respect nature because if man goes beyond his limits, then nature lets man creates all types of consequences for himself which proves Shelley’s point to respect nature’s powers.When people look at nature, they are automatically healed just by its looks. This is a much more powerful force than anything man is capable of doing, thus nature is all powerful. Nature is constant, unlike man who is constantly changing, which shows that nature is always in control.

May Shelley crafted one of the most renowned novels of the Romantic era and gave birth the genre of science fiction. Shelley’s Frankenstein displays many themes, but none is more significant than that of the relationship between the creator and the created. This relationship is undoubtedly complex. Victor Frankenstein’s sentiments towards his creation vary from pure intrigue as he begins to build the eight-foot-tall man to utter disdain towards him as the beast begins to push back against him. Moreover, the creation receives no nurturing from the one that brought him to life, thus turning his back on his creator. This dynamic comes in sharp contrast to that of the Puritans during the time of William Bradford. Victor Frankenstein’s creation

Frankenstein was a story written by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley while she was on her vacation in Switzerland with her husband. The story got published in 1818 without letting the public about the author. It was in 1831 when the novel revised edition was out and Mary Shelley name mentioned as an author. The novel focused on social, cultural and political facet of the societies during Mary’s lifetime. The fictional character in the novel clearly shows the battle against the pre-established people’s attitude during that time. Religion and science always create a controversy in the society with religion always differencing from any scientific principles and experiments. Shelley’s tried to addresses the above controversy and showed how science and modern technology is sometimes wrong. She tried to show how scientists and inventors are sometimes selfish only care for achieving their plan without evaluating the end result.
