In a way, Victor and The Monster are both Monsters. Victor became a monster after he made the Monster. He left his creation alone, which is exact opposite of what it needed. In a sense, he left a speechless, 7ft baby alone. Who knows what havoc a 7ft baby could cause. Victor kept The Monster a secret which ultimately led to the death of his little brother. The Monster strangled his little brother and framed Elizabeth, the Frankenstein family's housekeeper, for it. Elizabeth was then later…

The Hero Frankenstein (Analysis on Why Frankenstein is a Hero) The novel “Frankenstein” by Mary Shelley was written in the 1800s. Mary was just eighteen years old when she wrote this story and it stunned thousands of people in several ways. The book was based on a scientist that brought a human back to life and called this a monster. Several good and bad things were an outcome of this discovery of being able to bring back the dead. In the story Frankenstein, the doctor is a hero because he…

Throughout the classic Novel Frankenstein, Mary Shelley reveals Victor’s true characteristics of insecurity, passion, insecurity, and more as she depicts Victor’s actions as the idea of the monster is born and finally becomes alive. Victor acknowledges “It was the secrets of heaven and earth that I desired to learn; and weather it was the outward substance of things, or the inner spirit of nature [...]” (Shelley 19). Victor’s motivations started out completely pure and only developed for a…

Question 2a The three elements of motivation are direction, intensity and persistence (Robbins, S., & Judge, T, 2017). Intensity is how hard the person tries to achieve the goal Favourable job-performance outcome will only be achieved if the effort is funnelled to the right direction that benefits the organization. Persistence is how long can the person continue their effort. In the case study, it is evident that the teams were given a direction of motivation which is the target to be met…

used to construct the creature, in a gloomy, insidious tone. Victor vividly describes the scene of him creating life from the dead, how he was amazed at first but then was disgusted. The author’s use of synecdoche presents the body parts used , such as the “eyes that were fixed on [him]”(19) and his “jaws that opened”(Shelley 20). The intentional use of body parts by Frankenstein describe a whole to portray the significance of identity. Victor was able to built the monster and create life from…

Isolation. Revenge. What do these words mean? When one thinks of the word ¨Frankenstein¨ before they read the book, they think of the monster and or the creature. But Frankenstein is actually named Victor, and he is the creator of the monster. Victor was a man who became very isolated, and did not associate with anyone for a long period of time. Thus making him get an insane idea to copy the idea of life. When he tested with life he, in my opinion, was turning himself into a monster. Looks are…

The monster has power, ambition and drive these are not only the characteristics of Victor but also his unconscious and inactive thoughts. Each character is a derived from Mary Shelley herself. The creation is well rounded and educated at such a young age and just wants to be loved. Victor is the creator and just like Shelley gives birth and they are criticized and misunderstood for being something of a different world. Elizabeth the primary female within the novel is Shelley’s idea of wanting…

the course of a few weeks. These are the results of the human conducted experiments done in “Flowers for Algernon” by Daniel Keyes and Frankenstein by Mary Shelley. These two stories follow characters that alter nature with their experimentations. Victor Frankenstein from Frankenstein animates an inanimate object that he creates using human cadavers. In contrast, Charlie Gordon from “Flowers for Algernon” grows up with a mental disability that causes him to have an extremely low intelligence…

besides his creation, desperate for his creator to feel in accordance with the joy he imagines himself to be capable of. Both characters demand that the reader engage in the “who’s at fault for the other’s dejection” debate. Even in indelible absence, Victor and the monster plague each other’s existence, both seeming to exist in excess. Victor’s volatile emotions become a constituent element of his persona, exceeding Mary Shelley’s portrayal. Similarly, the monster appears to others, and the…

In Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, Victor Frankenstein and his creation represent a relationship between creator and the created while also forming a doppelganger relationship. It is difficult to interpret which side, either Victor or the creature, represents good and which represents evil. The more Victor pursues his dream of creating a Being; he slowly slips from being a brilliant scientist to being an insane mad man looking to play God. His thirst for knowledge before the existence of his…
