Causes Of Love In Frankenstein

Improved Essays
Not everyone is created with love. Love is the most important thing in our life. I believe that everyone in the world needs love and warmth. Like the monster, wants to love from the creator. There are many reasons that make monster killing everyone Frankenstein's love; to feel left out by maker, to want revenge, and want to know the pain of Victor.
First of all, the main reason that makes the monster killed the people around Victor is feeling abandoned by the creator. For the first time, Victor saw the work that he has created for a period of two years. The job that he built not as expected. He created the parts become the evil. Victor could not explain his feelings at the time and he can't accept what happened. According to the monster, he

In fact, the monster is a good person, but the human made him an evil demon. He felt that human nature is both good and evil in the same time. After the monster saw a travel journal of Frankenstein before he made a job. The demon could not take it anymore, he was very angry. When he has more knowledge, he found that it made him miserable. According to the monster, he said that hateful day when I received life! Accursed creator! Why did you form a monster so hideous that even you turn from me in disgust? God, in pity, made man beautiful and alluring, after his own image; but my form is a filthy type of yours, more horrid even from the very resemblance. Satan had his companions, fellow-devils, to admire and encourage him, but I am solitary and abhorred. This text reflected, the monster felt rage why Victor created it disgusting while god created the human and beautiful and charming. When you create a monster, you should make him look like human. Although the monster was ugly, you should not leave him alone. In the other hand, Victor took three years to create the monster until he forgot the wickedness. But now he left it. Otherwise the monster would not rancor until the other people have died. Furthermore, If Victor took care of the monster; I believe that it would be a good

    Here, Frankenstein is begging his creator to make him feel happy. This is exactly what the monster is asking Victor for, happiness, but Victor denies. Victor asked his creator (God) if he would sympathize for him, but Victor is quite hypocritical to ask for sympathy when he created the monster and won't give it any sympathy. The monster planned to get revenge to make Victor understand how he felt. Victor never related with the monster and still insisted the wretch was in the wrong.…

    He admires his appearance, character and health. He describes this in the opening pages through his letters to Elizabeth by saying “I must say also a few words to you, my dear cousin, of little darling William. I wish you could see him, he is very tall of his age, with sweet laughing blue eyes, dark eyelashes, and curling hair.

    By the halfway point of the novel, Victor has become the antagonist and the monster the victim- which then, reverses. As Victor makes the monster, he abandons it- calling it on page 59, “the demoniacal corpse to which I had so miserably given life.” Victor’s abandonment of the creature reflects his mother’s death early in his childhood, and the cruelty displayed by life there reflects in his own actions of abandonment- his shift from victim to perpetrator complete. After the abandonment of the creature, Victor shows other cruelties to him as well, such as refusing to reason with him, or make him a mate of any sort. By his cruel actions, Victor pushes the creature to commit his own atrocities, such as the murder of WIlliam, which the creature describes as, “... I grasped his throat to silence him, and in a moment he lay dead at my feet.…

    Victor and the creature inflicted suffering onto each other in an endless cycle; never discovering compassion until it is too late. Acts of cruelty form parallels between the creator and the creature including their transformation into monsters, descent into madness and mutual self-destruction. A true monster is not merely one with an appearance that evokes fear; rather, one that lacks humanity. A monster reverts the natural order of nature; this is clearly displayed with the obsession Victor had to create life for his own selfish gains.…

    Robert Frost once said, “Love is the irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired.” This quote encapsulates a common human longing: to feel loved, to be understood by someone else. Everyone has experienced this feeling at some point, and this stays true for Mary Shelley’s novel Frankenstein; or the Modern Prometheus. The desire for love is found in many of her characters. Characters either search for, have, or lose love, and they act and feel differently based on which experience they have.…

    I also think that Victor could have made it up to the monster by just taking him back in teaching him things letting him know that he didn’t mean to abandon him. That is also another thing that could have prevented this whole situation from escalading to something bigger and worst. There are many other ways Victor could have avoided the trials he went through but he determined his own fate by not doing anything to make his situation and circumstance. His fate only had two ways to go the good way was staying with the monster and working things out and the…
