Moral Lessons In Mary Shelley’S Frankenstein
1. Moral Lessons in Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein
Mary Shelley's Frankenstein has become a classic in modern literature. Her tale is full of moral lessons that encompass a wide variety of subjects but
one of the most prevalent is the theme of knowledge and its pursuit. Frankenstein, Walton, and the Monster all have an appetite for acquiring
knowledge and actively pursue their perspective interests, but it soon turns to the obsessive and proves to be dangerous. Each of the character's desires
demonstrates to be detrimental to them when no boundaries are established. Through the use of consequences, Shelley's Frankenstein shows that the
relentless and obsessive pursuit of knowledge can lead to dangerous and disastrous situations.
The primary example for the search of knowledge that quickly turned obsessive is VictorFrankenstein. His profound interest for the pursuit of
knowledge and the production of life quickly becomes obsessive, thinking of nothing but "the cause and generation of life" (Shelley 31). His primary
virtue, his love for learning, quickly became obsessive. Frankenstein ignores his family and friends, and "seemed to have lost all soul or sensation but
for this one pursuit" (Shelley 33), becoming oppressed by his obsession, and failing to care for himself. His intense need to learn and expose all the
secrets of nature drive him beyond all reason, clouding his judgment and compelling him forward even when his "human nature turned with loathing
from" what he was attempting to do and create (Shelley 33).

2. Choice In Frankenstein Essay
Choices
When man decides to assume the role of God, consequences are bound to plague such an ambition. In the case of Victor Frankenstein, the protagonist
in Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, the product of such an ambition is a creature born of the dead. Despite the frightening process of his creation, the
creature wakes into the world as a benevolent being. He simply longs for acceptance and friendship, but due to his unsightly features, the world is
quick to condemn him as the monster he appears to be. With an unbearable sense of rejection in his heart, the monster begins to turn wicked. Soon
enough he is responsible for multiple deaths in the name of revenge. Although many treat him unfairly, the monster is fully aware of his actions...show

One day he finds the courage to reveal himself to the blind old man, but in mid–conversation, the son returns home and "struck him violently with a
stick" (115). The monster runs out of the home filled with pain and anguish.
When the monster returns, he learns of the family's sudden plans to move away. With no other direction, the monster seeks out answers from his
creator. He comes across Victor's papers, which reveal his identity and residence. With his newfound information, the monster decides to find his way
to Victor. Throughout his journey his curiosity begins to turn into hatred and rage towards his creator. As he treks across the continent he discloses,
"the spirit of revenge is enkindled in my heart" (119). This shows the monster's capability of harboring dark emotions; it shows his benevolence
quickly slipping away.
After his arrival in Geneva, the monster comes across a boy who reveals that he is related to VictorFrankenstein. He tells the boy "you shall be my first
victim" (122), and chokes him till he struggles no longer. As the monster gazes at the lifeless body that lies before him, he claps and shouts in triumph,
"I too can create desolation; my enemy is not invulnerable; this death will carry despair to him, and a thousand other miseries shall torment and
destroy him" (122). This statement clearly shows the he is aware of the crime he has committed and expresses no remorse. Unfortunately the boy is not

3. "There is something at work in my soul, which I do not understand."1 – Mary Shelley Frankenstein, a novel written by Mary Shelley, was published in
1818, a first of its kind. The novel is considered to be the first depiction of science fiction, with "infused elements of the Gothic novel and romantic
movement."2 Today this masterpiece largely influences literature studies and popular culture, especially in the aspect of film creation. Various
adaptations of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein has been created, but the only motion picture that remains close to the novel is Kenneth Branagh's Mary
Shelley's Frankenstein (1994). The novel and film have made many details conspicuous for comparison and contrast; details that related to the
beginning, the monster's creation, and Elizabeth's death and rebirth.

written by Walton. The author chose letters from another character to start...show more content...
Kenneth Branagh follows through with creating the same setting as Mary Shelley did in the beginning of her novel, yet leaves out details about the
family's history and the death of Frankenstein's mother. Similarly, the novel portrayed that Frankenstein did his own work, whereas the film displays
that his work was a continuation of Professor Waldman's. Related to the same scene, Mary Shelley spoke little about Frankenstein's physical
experimentation and how it was done, where in contrast it was the main focus of the film. One point of clear difference is the ending. Even though
Elizabeth dies in both the novel and the film, Kenneth Branagh takes Elizabeth's character further. He does this by allowing her to be reborn through
Frankenstein's experimentation and by then killing her off as she sets herself on

Chapter 16's main theme consisted of the mental battle between man and monster. Frankenstein has generally tried to fit in as part of a normal
society but later finds out that he will never truly be accepted. After reading notes and books from Victor Frankenstein's jacket, the monster battles his
demons of why he is the way he is especially contemplating intimacy of another. One of the books the monster read on explained a woman by the
name of emma who found love in another and was able to share her feelings and secrets. Friendship was another theme of the book the monster read,
causing the monster to also feel a mourning towards companionship. His struggles finally reached a peak and resulted in the death of William and the

In Frankenstein, the shifting point of view brought the story together in a way I was unfamiliar with. Most of the books I read were either strictly
first or third person instead of the retelling of a monster's life through his creator's own retelling of his life all narrated by Robert Walton. To make it
clearer, Frankenstein was told through Walton's letters which tells Victor Frankenstein's story, which tells the monster's story, which tells Felix's and the
cottager's story. It was slightly confusing, initially, but not unwelcome. Especially since it made me almost sympathetic towards Frankenstein's
monster's plight. Looking through his eyes made it harder to dislike him because his short life was filled with loneliness...show more content...
My thought on this comes mostly from the subtitle, The Modern Prometheus. It makes sense to me because Prometheus was a demigod, one of the
Titans, and thought he knew better than Zeus who believed that man was not ready for the gift of fire. Prometheus went beyond his station and
disobeyed the King of Gods to return fire to the earth. He was brutally tortured as punishment until Hercules saved him. Victor Frankenstein acts as
Prometheus, going against higher powers to reach his goal. His desire is fulfilled and ends horribly, leaving Frankenstein tortured and despaired over
the death his actions caused. Also, as a little tidbit, Prometheus was associated with science and culture which makes him and Frankenstein even more
similar. Nature could be considered Zeus in this situation because it is the one being tricked and made a mockery of. Robert Walton would be
Frankenstein's Hercules since he rescued Frankenstein from his torment.

The story of Frankenstein hops all over Europe. The time period is in the 1700s and it is obvious. The clothing, the speech, the villages, everything is
very old fashioned. I am surprised that Justine's trial did not turn into the Salem Witch Trials. Moving on, the setting and time period clearly impact
the characters. One of the clues that is most noticeable to me is the lack of strong women. I am not saying that the female characters are weak, they are
just extremely passive and that makes sense considering the time they are in.

8. The essay written by George Levine " Frankenstein and the Tradition of Realism" is published in a scholarly journal called Novel: A Forum on
Fiction in 1973. As from what we can assume from the title is that the journal focuses exclusively on novels that are a work of fiction. It does not deal
with poetry or even short stories.It is most likely that the audience are those who focus their research interests on the novel form. Levine's essay focuses
on how Frankenstein fits into two different traditions of novel writing, the realistic novel and the Gothic novel.
Levine's main argument is that although Frankenstein is a gothic novel, it is not a typical gothic novel with many realistic ideas. It aims to generate
terror in the reader like other gothic novels but does not involve the supernatural. The events that Mary Shelley writes out in Frankenstein are not far
from ordinary and the commonplace. Levine's more interesting argument is that Mary Shelley's use of the Gothic tradition allows her to dip in the
imaginative and subjective inner truths that a realistic novel would not allow. For example how the characters reflect or double each other. Also most
of the characters represent aspects of Victor Frankenstein

9. Essay On Frankenstein
Mary Shelley is one of the best known authors of gothic literature. Her most famous work is the horror novel Frankenstein which she wrote at the
early age of 20. Since she was so young when writing the novel, it is interesting to ask for her ideas and the source of inspiration for the content of her
story. In literary studies, Roland Barthes' theory says that the author – and so his or her life – should not be the reference point for an analysis (Jannidis
et al. 182). Nevertheless in some stories, the traces of the author are so strong and important that they cannot be ignored when analysing the story.
Therefore, this essay will examine the traces of Mary Shelley's biography in Frankenstein with reference to mother's death, different places...show more

Shelley's stepmother did not want the children to be highly educated due to her own only average education. Shelley probably educated herself
through reading a lot and "the comings and goings of such rare personalities as Lamb and Coleridge to the house" (Sparks 13). This might serve as
an argument why books and reading are often mentioned in Frankenstein. Education is also important for Victor Frankenstein. He studies in
Germany and becomes a scientist with deep knowledge in this area. Not only for Victor, education also plays a major role for other characters. For
example, Elizabeth is sad because "she [has] not the same opportunities of enlarging her experience, and cultivating her understanding" (Shelley 106)
when Victor leaves to visit France, the Netherlands, Scotland and England. So even for a woman, knowledge was desirable. Due to the lack of a high
education, it might be that Shelley was not able to speak any foreign languages. She might come to terms with it and the probable wish to speak other
languages through the detailed description of the acquisition of a language (Shelley 74–79). In conclusion, one can see that education played a key role
in Shelley's life even if she was not allowed to take part in it as much as she would have

Why is Frankenstein such a popular text?
Frankenstein is a science fiction novel written by Mary Shelley during the time of the Romantic Movement. It has remained popular ever since it was
first published and still sells well today, with many reprints of the book since the first edition.
One of the main characters of the story and probably the most
(in)famous, Frankenstein's monster, has become an icon of all that is monstrous and wrong. The story has been adapted and interpreted many times all
in different ways, causing the monster and the stereotypical view of him to become intertextual. The most popular and well recognised representation

Frankenstein is popular for a number of reasons. The most prominent I believe is the fact that it was the first type of story of its kind, and what is
now referred to as sci–fi, short for science fiction. Some people also claim it to be a horror novel, due to the monster and his hideous creation, but it is
generally classified as science fiction.
Science fiction works are based loosely on actual scientific principals and discoveries. For example, Mary Shelley had seen experiments where
electricity was passed through dead creatures and they twitched slightly. This was the starting point of Frankenstein and the first time a text of this
nature had been written. It single–handedly created a whole new genre for writers to discover. She wrote the story as the result of a challenge that
was set to her, her husband and a group of their friends. The challenge was to write the most terrifying story that they could, and the scariest would be
the winner. The story predicts the future uses of man's ever growing scientific knowledge, to further preserve life and, in the most extreme cases,
actually create new life artificially. It tells the tale of
Frankenstein's experiments and his eventual success in creating a new human man from the body parts of other dead people. The new human,
however, becomes a "monster", killing the innocent in his search for

13. Short Essay On Frankenstein
1.Introduction
When people hear the name Frankenstein, the first thing that comes to their mind is a hideous–looking monster with green–colored skin. That is
because the media and the popular culture industry have been portraying the character of the world–famous master narrative in this particular way.
Ironically, the name Frankenstein points to the creator of the monster and actually, the monster itself was never given a name.
Frankenstein; or, the Modern Prometheus is a famous novel written by Mary Shelley, who was only eighteen years of age when she first wrote it. The
first edition was published anonymously in London in 1818 and instantly, it became a great success.
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the characters of the master...show more content...
Then it accuses Frankenstein of its life of misery and solitude. In the end, the creature demands its creator to create a second but female counterpart as
it desperately needs a companion. The being convinces him by promising that it will never disturb Victor again. Although skeptical of the proposal,
Frankenstein agrees to its request.
Almost finished with his second work, Frankenstein however, destroys it as he fears that the new monster might be more evil than the original.
Furthermore, he is horrified by the idea of two creatures creating a new "race of devils". (Shelley 170) The original monster, who observed
Frankenstein's act, swears revenge against its creator, deciding to torment him for the rest of his life. He starts by killing Victor's best friend Henry
Clerval.
A few weeks later, Frankenstein marries Elisabeth Lavenza – another girl who was adopted by his family and his long–time love. On their wedding
night, the monster strangles his newlywed wife to death. Moreover, Frankenstein's father later dies of grief. Now having lost everyone the protagonist
ever loved, he vows to destroy the monster and runs after it, eventually arriving in the North Pole where he meets

14. Alienation In Frankenstein
In her novel Frankenstein, Mary Shelley explores a wide range of themes concerning human nature through the thoughts and actions of two main
characters and a host of others. Two themes are at the heart of the story, the most important being creation, but emphasis is also placed on alienation
from society. These two themes are relevant even in today's society as technology brings us ever closer to Frankenstein's fictional achievement.
First, let's examine the alienation from society suffered by Frankenstein's monster. The cause of his ostracism was his horrificphysical appearance. It
was so bad that people would not even allow him the chance to speak or get to know the person...show more content...
And when Frankenstein rejected him, he sought to make Victor an empathizer by killing those whom he loved. Perhaps less than revenge, the monster
only wanted someone to know what it is like to be alone and denied love.
This brings us the theme of creation, which really contains smaller 'sub–themes.' There is the relationship between the creator and his creation as well
as the question of whether or not the created owes his allegiance to society. What should the relationship between Victor and the monster have been?
In Shelley's criticism of all who were disgusted by his looks, Victor would be in the wrong for having shunned the monster. It was his fault the
monster existed, so he should have taken it in and shown it compassion. As the creator, he owes his creation the basic means to a happy life. As for
the monster, in turn for his creator's gift of life and happiness, he would pledge loyalty. But because Frankenstein dropped his end of the contract from
the start, all bets were off and the monster tried to be as diplomatic as possible about the whole affair. This goes back to the alienation theme starting
with Victor's abandoning of the monster.
What about the monster's role in society? As a man's creation, did the monster owe any debt to society or have a right to be part of it? He did not
choose to be born into it, but he was forced to seek refuge in the world upon

15. Theme Of Friendship In Frankenstein
"Frankenstein" is a gothic/science fiction novel that keeps the reader at the edge of their seat. It is filled with scenes of love, power, tragedy, and
much more. This novel, is packed to the rims with themes and lessons, most of them dealing with creation; however, I wanted to discuss a theme that
is lying beneath the surface and is buried in the text. This paper explores how Frankenstein mistakes friendship for possession. This theme will be
analyzed using gender, class, a tone of disgust, possession, and disappointment, imagery of beauty, and lastly, metaphor.
Due to Victor Frankenstein's wealthy upbringing, he views friendship as a possession. From the very beginning of the novel, Frankenstein's family is
conditioning him to take...show more content...
The relationship between Elizabeth and Victor lead to the assumption that possession of someone results in some sort of an intimate relationship:
"my more than sister, since till death she was to be mine only" (Shelley, 37). The tone of this passage is incredibly possessive. It seems as if the
only reason Victor is giving any praise or importance to Elizabeth is because she is his until death. Due to the powerful proprietorial tone of this line,
I got the impression that Victor believes he is the only one who gets to decide when Elizabeth can die. Another tone I get from this line, is a sense of
pride. He doesn't actually have pride toward Elizabeth, but rather he has pride in the fact that she was his and only his.
Victor's first possessive experience with a relationship imprinted–how his next relationships throughout his life would go. After going away to school,
Victor felt quite isolated and longed for a friend or an equal. He obsessed over the thought of possessing an equal to the point of him bringing a
creature to life. He dedicated all of his energy and time into creating the ultimate equal who was beautiful and as intelligent as he, but immediately
after the creature came to life, Victor was disgusted: "I felt the bitterness of disappointment; dreams that had been my food and pleasant rest for so
long a space were now become a hell to me" (Shelley, 59,60). Drawing back to the fact Victor's family is privileged, I believe the

Introduction:
We have all heard of the big scary monster of Frankenstein. It has been a story told through decades, each story a little different.
Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is the original story of Frankenstein's monster. She wrote the story of Victor Frankenstein and his creation.
Through decades of this story being told, society has stripped away Shelley's original description of the monster and created an entirely new set of ideas.
Victor Frankenstein's creation has been molded into a big zombie–like monster. Society has changed the monster's appearance and emotions and for the
sake of what?
Body Paragraph 1:

These changes have stripped the idea of the monster having any human–like physical qualities. The alterations have created an even uglier and foul
creature.
Body Paragraph 2:
Besides just altering Frankenstein's Monster's physical appearance, society has changed Shelley's depiction of his intellect and mental ability drastically.
Mary Shelley's describes Frankenstein's monster as equal intellectually developed as a human being. He is emotional and psychological advanced. He
can speak and read English as well as some other languages.
These details and characteristics are very very human–like in nature. He is psychologically equal if not more advanced than an average human being.
"Everywhere I see bliss, from which I alone am irrevocably excluded. I was benevolent and good; misery made me fiend." p.87
The monster was once good. He has the mental capacity to feel lonely enough to change into the monster he is currently portrayed to be.
Today's society has completely stripped the monster of all of his mental capabilities.
The monster was once portrayed and a very intelligent and emotional creature with exact human psychology.
"Unlike so many of his on–screen interpretations, the Creature of the novel is eloquent, thoughtful, and – at least at first – inspired by the beauty of the
natural world. Later, he uses his gift for language to articulate his anguish, telling Frankenstein, 'I am content to reason with you. I am malicious
because I am miserable. Am I not
18. Themes of Shelley's Frankenstein Essay
Mary Shelley discusses the themes of birth and creation, appearance and the necessity of companionship, love and acceptance in her novel
Frankenstein. The themes that are explored in Frankenstein are relevant to today's modern world. Shelley challenges readers by endorsing and
confronting attitudes and values in her text through the events, circumstances and outcomes that take place in the novel, thus causing the reader to
reflect upon their own lives and in turn the society around them.
Shelley raises in her text an issue that is on the forefront of discussion in the modern world, that of man taking the place of God and the role of woman
in the creation of life. The modern world is currently grappling over the concerns of cloning,...show more content...
One of the main themes in Frankenstein is appearance and acceptance. In today's society and the society in which Frankenstein is set, people often
judge one another solely based on appearance. Social prejudice is often based on looks. Be it the colour of one's skin, the clothes they wear, facial
features or even ones body expressions. People make snap judgements based on what the eye beholds. Today's schools are a prime example of this as
people are classified instantly and almost unknowingly.
"There's a lot of hate around here, Gentry Robler, 16, a sophomore at Santana High. He reels off the high school cliques: the gothics, the freaks, the
dorks, the jocks, the Mexican gangsters, the white supremacists." Time March 2001 pg. 24
This example of the significance of appearance in modern society is also echoed in Frankenstein. The parallel between the society in the novel and
modern society is that of snap judgements based solely on appearances. In the novel, Victor Frankenstein is a perpetrator of such judgements. Victor
"selected his features as beautiful." Here it is seen Victor's shallowness as he picked the most perfect body parts and beauteous features, all to be
pieced together in great anticipation. However as one can see, the result is horrific and due to the hideousness of the wretch that he has created, he
abandons him. This same shallowness of judgement due to appearance again surfaces when Victor accuses the creature of murdering William

his brother. Upon arriving at home, Victor learned that Justine Moritz, a kind adopted girl, was accused, tried, and executed for William's murder.
Victor became even guiltier knowing that his creation was responsible for both deaths. To ease his grief, Victor took a vacation to the mountains. The
monster followed him there, admitted to William's murder, and begged for understanding. The monster claimed it was an attempt to hurt Victor in
return for the pain Victor had caused by hating and abandoning his creation. The monster begged Victor to create him a mate. At first, Victor refused,
but the monster eventually convinced him. After his vacation and with plans to make a female, Victor went to England with Henry. While Henry was
in Scotland, he secluded himself on an island and began a second creation. When partly done, Victor glanced out the window and saw the monster

It must be noted, in any case, that in spite of Shelley's message about the naturally impartial nature of science and learning she is not saying that
science and information can't be risky. There is certainly an uncertainty to science, one which is produced out of the way of humanity. Chris Baldick
contends this point in his "In Frankenstein's Shadow", saying "learning is appeared to be twofold edged, its advantages and risks relying on the
circumstances, and the soul, in which it is sought after" (Baldick 45). Human culture and researchers must be capable with their manifestations and

monster's existence, he was trying to obtain knowledge of humans. The monster made an attempt to learn the ways of nature, and even acting in such a
way. In order to tell readers that they should take a chance, Shellely not only shows Frankenstein being ostracized by the village, but also by his father.

In the book creation is described as very intelligent, well–spoken, fast and very strong, but is only called things such as: "monster", "creature",

"abhorred monster", "fiend", "wretched devil", and "abhorred devil". By being called such names, the creation's perception of the world becomes
bad, and realizes hoe humanities are thinking. "Sometimes I allowed my thoughts, unchecked by reason, to ramble in the fields of Paradise, and dared
to fancy amiable and lovely creatures sympathizing with my feelings and cheering my gloom; their angelic countenances breathed smiles of
