“Hi Frankenstein”, I exclaim. I am standing in my yard watering my scare flowers. Frankenstein is working in his potion garden outside of his house. “Hi Monster”, replies Frankenstein with a wave. “Ineed help scaring people on Halloween, could you help me?”, I ask. Frankenstein grins and replies, “ I have a potion for you, it makes you super scary!”. “Cool”, I exclaim with a grin. “I will bring it tomorrow”, Frankenstein promises me.

THE NEXT DAY
“Here are the rules: 1. this potion only lasts one hour; 2. you can’t tell anyone I gave this to you; and 3. you can’t give it to anybody else”, Frankenstein tells me. Frankenstein winks and hands me the potion. The potion is a green color with sparkles in it. All it looks like is glitter

    While the creature is a character that the audience cannot help but to sympathize with, several parts of his story indicate that he might not be as reliable of a narrator as he appears to be. His acquisition of human characteristics in such an efficient manner is highly unlikely since the brain which resides in his head has most likely not been used in a long time and thus would not immediately be able to make the connections necessary to interpret the world. For instance, the creature somehow manages to “improve more rapidly” than the Arabian which seems unlikely since she has had more experience with the world and a far more extensive education than the creature ever could have given himself (Shelley 127). Additionally is seems rather unlikely…

    Although this novel is rich with imagery, the use of light and dark along with life and death imagery are especially used to portray the good and evil in Frankenstein. Though he thinks he brings “light into [the] dark world,” (5-6) he collects materials for his experiment in “the unhallowed damps of the grave” (29-30) while trying to “bestow animation upon lifeless matter” (12). This imagery is used to convey Frankenstein misconception that he works for good when he really creates…

    In Frankenstein, Mary Shelley portrays the idea that positive connections draw people to their better selves, by demonstrating that no companionship in a person’s life can lead to their downfall which limits the potential of being good. Connections can guide positive choices, which can ultimately uplift a person emotionally. Making good choices and having a good state of mind can lead to increasing a person’s health. Victor and Walton, the protagonists, lack companionship because they are self-involved, and are oblivious to the outside world. To increase their solitude, they both pursue obsessions that limits their potential of success showing that nature is unassailable.…

    The need for control is a struggle for authority and power over others. In Chaim Potok’s, The Chosen, Reb Saunders controls his son in every aspect of his life by the way he raised him to his day to day interactions. Throughout Mary Shelly’s, Frankenstein, Victor controls his creation by condemning the monster’s actions or thoughts that aren’t approved or conceived by Victor, dictating the monster should live his way or not at all. Reb and Victor, two main creators, demonstrate how futile the meaningless pursuit of control is through experiences and differences in the relationships with their offspring. Reb Saunders is a Rabbi considered by his followers not only a holy man but a medium between God and their congregation.…

    Can you imagine not being accepted by people because of your looks? The horror novel, "Frankenstein," was written by Gris Grimley, which was about Victor Frankenstein's creation. In my opinion, Victor Frankenstein's creature would be considered human because he had the ability to learn and feel emotions. To begin with, the creature is human due to him having the ability to feel emotions. The creature feels emotion when he states," … I discovered that he, the author of my existence, sought his own enjoyment in feelings and passions from the indulgence of which I was forever barred, then impotent envy filled me with an insatiable thirst for vengeance,"(Grimly, 190).…

    Did you know that Mary Shelley, the author of one the most studied books in our recent history, was less than twenty years old when she started writing the novel Frankenstein? Pretty impressive considering how complex the book is, plot, characters and all. One of the things we all know about this book is how a doctor created a creature and this creature went on a rampage and killed people and we all think we know how monstrous he is. But that’s not the full story, some could argue that Victor Frankenstein, the doctor who created this monster, is actually more of a monstrous character than the creature that we all have come to know as the “monster”. Victor is cruel to his creation, he is neglectful, so much so that he gets his own creation to…

    It has been said, and proven, that humans are social creatures. One’s humanity relies on companionship. The monster, in Frankenstein, shows that he has a need for companionship, even if he doesn’t receive it. He says: “I am alone, and miserable; man will not associate with me but one as deformed and horrible as myself would not deny herself to me.” This quote not only displays the monster’s rejection from society but also his need for companionship, from any being.…

    In Volume 1 of Mary Shelley‘s ‘Frankenstein’, horror and terror are themes that evidently run strongly throughout, for example the horror of the creation and the awakening of the Creature, and Victor Frankenstein’s fearful response. According to James. B. Twitchell – “Horror – horrére means to stand on end or bristle”, which most definitely applies to Frankenstein. Written in the early 19th century, Shelley took inspiration from society at the time – particularly science – with the use of Galvanism, electricity, and scientific theories – which fascinated her. This was seen as something completely horrifying at the time of the novel – which emphasizes the horrific nature of the novel itself, as it challenged and fascinated readers with the idea of turning something completely terrifying into a reality.…

    Frankenstein as a Historical Metaphor, written by Elizabeth Young, is a strong article centered mostly around race relations and U.S. foreign policy. Susan Tyler Hitchcock’s piece, The Monster Lives On, focuses more on previous events and how the myth has been misinterpreted throughout time. However, both authors agree that the Frankenstein metaphor is an effective way to bring attention to world issues pertaining to politics especially. Hitchcock references political cartoons to demonstrate the changes in political power worldwide. Contrarily, Young argues that issues related to politics, science, technology, and race can all be explained through this metaphor.…
