“Seventh Grade” Academic Paragraph Victor is a boy who is continuous embarrassing himself in order to gain a girl’s admiration. For example, Victor mumbled under his breath, “La me vava me con le grandma. ”(para. 48) This is important because I think Mr. Bueller knew that Victor didn’t know French.…
Throughout time, there have been characters intended to be mortal enemies in novels who end up being extremely similar in both character and actions. Although enemies create conflict and hardship for the other, this can end up being due to the characters being so similar and strong willed. This relationship between people can be seen in situations such as families and social groups in everyday life, not only literature. In Mary Shelley’s novel, Frankenstein, the two enemies, Victor and the monster, reveal themselves to be strikingly similar, despite their hatred for each other. These two characters are similar due to their lack of motherly figures, the comfort they both find in untouched nature and their lack of respect for life.…
He isolated himself from his family for years because he only cared for his experiments. When Justine was wrongfully accused and charged with Victor’s brother’s murder, he could have spoke up and saved her but he was more worried about himself. He was more concerned what people would think of him creating such an abomination. “My tale was not one to announce publicly; its astounding horror would be looked upon as madness by the vulgar” (Shelly44). Victor shows in this quote how self absorbed he truly is.…
Cognition, as defined in our notes, is the “mental processes related to acquisition, storage, and retrieval” (Frank P. Gengaro, Ph.D., MSW, M.A., LCSW, SI, TM, TM, TL, TMC, TTP). This basically means that cognition has a huge part in acquiring information and storing the information in an efficient way so that we can access it whenever we need to. The main way that we study human cognition is through the humanistic perspective. The humanistic perspective suggests that we are social creatures who interact with other social creatures for the sole purpose of survival. We use cognition in an adaptive, as well as, maladaptive way to survive.…
Be Humble; The Key To Success Having the desire to be powerful is a great trait to contain but when it includes an enormous amount of obsession that may cause a disruption of nature, it turns into a whole different situation. In the novel Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, the character Victor Frankenstein withheld a great deal of obsession for power and control which was useful to illuminate the main idea of the novel. Sometimes one must humble themselves and play their respective part to society rather than being above all for this offsets equilibrium in society. From an early age, Victor expressed his love for owning others when he was given Elizabeth as a ¨gift¨ from his parents.…
His first interaction with Teresa fails and leaves Victor feeling embarrassed. On page 2, lines 53 and 54 it states “He smiled back and said, ’Yeah, that’s me.’ His brown face blushed. Why hadn’t he said, ’Hi, Teresa ‘ or, ‘How was your summer?’ or something nice?…
In the words of Mitch Albom, “All parents damage their children. It cannot be helped. Youth, like pristine glass, absorbs the prints of its handlers.” Parenting, much like cruelty, leaves an irrevocable mark. In Mary Shelley’s novel Frankenstein, Shelley uses cruelty to expose the contrast between the perpetrator and victim-…
We learn that Victor was embarrassed and mad at himself that he didn’t even dare to glance at Teresa. On page 4 it says, “Victor was too weak from failure to join the class”, then later the text states on page 5, “Victor couldn’t stand to look at Teresa. He was sweaty with shame.” The first text shows that Victor was embarrassed too much to even continue with class. He was humble because he was too ashamed to join the class.…
We think story-telling played a role in character development for Victor. In the short story, more light is shown on Victor and Thomas’s relationship when they were younger through flashbacks. With these flashbacks we understand why the characters are the way they are now in the present. We see less anger and hostility from Victor as his older self towards Thomas in the short story. We can also infer that maybe this is a growing respect for Thomas from Victor, due to Thomas’s way of being able to remain positive despite his struggles.…
In the exposition of the story, Victor is introduced as being an awkward person. He doesn’t know what to say especially to the person he likes. One page 2, he went to talk to Teresa. He said, “Yeah, that’s me” and he regretted saying that.…

For example while he was in french class “He tried to bluff his way out by making noises that sounded French.”. He was trying to impress Teresa, since no one else else spoke French he pretended to, even though the teacher might ridicule him. He took his chance and replied making a fool of himself..…
In the novel Frankenstein, or The Modern Prometheus, written by Mary Shelley in 1818 there are many central themes. I will focus on the themes of revenge and isolation which are highlighted not only in the passage from chapter twenty-three, but also throughout the novel. This passage comes from the scene in the novel where Victor and Elizabeth have just been married and are now starting their honeymoon. But when they arrive at their destination Victor is very nervous and upset because he remembers that his Creature vowed to get his revenge with him on his wedding night (Shelly 140). The themes of the novel and the themes present in the passage are very similar in how isolation affects the characters.…
In Mary Shelley’s book, Frankenstein, the reader experiences the complex relationship between a creator and its creation. One gathers an insight on the desires a creator has for its creation to be without blemish, and gains an understanding for the aftermath of when that futile ambition is not met. The effects experienced by Victor Frankenstein and his monster, after the monster was created, can be compared to the effects that postpartum depression has on a mother as well as her child.

For example, Many new mothers are not able to deal with postpartum depression due to…
