4. The theme of creation is at the center of the novel,
Frankenstein. The story shows how Victor creates a
monster and instills life in it after gaining scientific
knowledge of life at Ingolstadt. Victor plays God or
pretends to become one to create life. His ambition of
creating life and emulating his own creation fails.
Mary Shelley tells her readers that Byron challenged her,
Percy and Polidori each towrite a ghost story. Prompted
by Percy to further develop the story she created around
her nightmare, she could draw on material with the same
origin as the nightmare. ...

6. Depression as 21st century
Monster
Unlike physical cuts and
bruises, mental illnesses
can’t be seen.
Nevertheless, we can
recognize the symptoms
and seek professional help
to battle them. This
requires education and
awareness as well as
frequent public discourse
around the subject of
mental health.

7. The most common causes
of depression are abuse and conflict
in life, which both Victor and the
monster suffer from.Victor was
deeply saddened by the murder of
his brother, and the monster was
thrown into depression after being
abandoned by Victor right after he
was created as well as right after
Victor died.
