Epilogue To Mary Shelley's Frankenstein '

Quote: He stated “I was seized by remorse and the sense of guilt, which hurried me away to a hell of intense tortures such as no language can describe…..I shunned the face of man; all sound of joy or complacency was torture to me; solitude was my only consolation–deep, dark, deathlike solitude.”(Page 88).

In Frankenstein, written by Mary Shelley, the creation, made from scraps of corpses, was built by Victor Frankenstein, a man fascinated and obsessed with the knowledge of life. Following the creation’s rouse, Victor immediately abandons him with no desire on keeping or teaching his new being. Because of his lack of nourishment and direction “growing up”, the creation goes through a process of self-deception. He endures a period of deceit by believing that he is a normal human being like everyone around him. But as time progresses, he learns to accept how he is alone in this world and disconnected with everyone. Because of the creation’s lack of guidance and isolation, he grows up feeling unwanted.

John Locke is one of the most influential Enlightenment thinkers and is famously known for asserting that all humans have natural rights. He also believed that humans are born with clean slates, and that the environment humans grow in, especially at a young age, has massive influences on aspects of their personalities, ideals, and motivations. Shelley was most definitely influenced by this claim when writing Frankenstein. As the reader, we can see the monster that Victor Frankenstein creates grow up alone, without guidance, and be formed by the experiences it is put through while trying to survive. Its emotions and beliefs throughout the book were merely a result of its experiences as it encounters the harsh reality of the world. Mary

Mary Shelley used this poem to show the freedom of one's future and the change(s) that will come with it. The poem also mentions one little thing such as a dream or a “wandering thought” can ruin a bigger idea. In the story, it was recently addressed that before the poem, “If our impulses were confined to hunger, thirst, and desire, we might be nearly free”. This passage can be implying that the non-essential things in life are the things that poison us or make us change. The poem’s purpose in this part of the book is to amplify the speaker's last words of the paragraph that state, “...we are moved by every wind that blows and a chance word or scene that word may convey to us.”. It makes the message of “things will change” very clear to the

Jack jumped off the top of the train, as a tall creature with razor teeth and red, snake-like eyes, chased him, going for the kill. They fought, but the creature was to quick, it pinned Jack, claws digging into his flesh.
The night was cold and gloomy, lights lit up the streets of London, the moons subtle glow reflected on small puddles left from the earlier rain.

Before man, there was a harsh winter. All the land of the earth was buried in snow, and all the oceans were covered in blankets of ice. There was there a very crafty creature above the rest who stored food beforehand. She had fur which covered her eyes, and a hunched back making her taller than she was wide. Basically, she looked like a lump with fur.

It is funny that you ask this assignment, because just 3 days ago, I was out for a lunch down by the lake with a few friends. There were all discussing their successes t a charms lesson, and I had done very poorly and didn’t want to be included. I began walking along the lake side and saw an interesting creature floating along. It was a merman and he didn’t look happy.

Chapter 2 of Shelley's Frankenstein, describes the relationship Victor has with fellow sister Elizabeth. And his closest friend Henry Clerval. Between Victor and Elizabeth “Harmony was the soul our companionship” (Shelley pg 38). And even though they were indifferent they got along like two peas in a pod. Henry was a son of a merchant. Who read about romances and chivalry. The connection of reading brought them together.

It was late March, about to be noon, as we were walking down the path we could feel the grass as soft as a pile of leaves. Without delay, me and my friend, Jit, decided that we would go to the beautiful waterfall that lots of people were talking about. Along the way, we could see the nice sunlight and with some clouds, but we came to a stop and saw there was two ways and they both go to different directions and we didn’t know which one to go to, because they both look the same. As a result, Jit looked at the map and requested “Go left”, so we did , but as we walked, the path got darker, but with some sunlight spot . At last, we walked further in and Jit questioned, “ What is that, he has a green vest and seem like if it could go through a hole with no problem. ” I tried to respond, but the shiny buttons on his vest were as bright as the sun, so that blind me for a couple minutes. Jit with a confused voice, “ He has a beard?”

It was dark and without motion, then a sound. It was a boy, saying my name. “Maria, are you awake?” the boy said. I woke up, there, sitting next to me, was a boy who looked eerily similar to me. Same brown hair, green eyes, pale skin, we were even wearing the same outfit! “Who are you?” I asked. “Maria, are you kidding me, it’s Edward!” To which I gave a confused face, ‘I don't know any Edwards.” I said. “I’m your twin brother Maria! Man, you must have hit your head hard.” He said. “Ok, I guess that makes sense.” I replied. We sat there waiting for a few minutes in a dark, lifeless forest. Until, from behind some bushes, appeared a large and beautiful woman. She had blue skin and hair as well as a long flowing dress and a trident in each hand. When she saw us, she imediantly strapped both tridents to her back. I jumped up and hid behind Edward, because the creature was definently not human. The giant woman came up to me and asked me how I was doing. “What are you?” I asked. “Oh! I’m a spirit, your spirit. But, you call me Naide.” The giant woman said. “Do you not remember me?” she asked.

Then, with his call the ground beneath our feet began to shake as if a second train were about to cross over the bridge. The vibrations pace quickened to a tremor. Stones and other pieces of loose gravel scattered over the ground started to slide dancing to the sudden earthquake. Old deadfall branches and piles of half-rotten leaves began to make their way down the hillsides as they tumbled into the creek. The sounds of subsiding earth, then became replaced by sounds of deep, hoarse moaning than seemed to resonate throughout the air as it flooded in from all around us.

I hastily fled to my newest place of work. I had inhabited the world with a second creation. This demon, though a woman, was more terrifying and hideous than the first. A monstrous creature created only for longing of a new beginning. A world where I would forget this horrible deed I had bestowed upon the universe. I had only promised my first creation a companion, not a family. His companion would never get the chance to conceive, for no more demons will wreak havoc upon mankind. I fled knowing the creature was close looking for what I had promised him.

I'm that little ugly monster that Frankenstein created.All I remember is laying on this bed with my arms and legs tied down to the bed.I was in this dark lab which had many tools all over the place with no light except a little crack which I could only have one eye open to see out of.There also was a single light bulb swinging making single shadows that crept me out.This creation took 2 years out of my life.It's kinda scary because the parts he made me with is from a graveyard.Frankenstein wanted me to be so cute but guess what I came out ugly.His skin was crinkly and his aroma smelled like he just came from a pig pen.

After getting back from the hospital that night, Aileana made plans with Kendrick to pick him up the next afternoon after the doctor released him. She already had thoughts about what wicked things she wanted to do to him. It had been a long month without his hot, passionate ways. She never thought of herself as being as sexually driven as most of her friends. But since being with Kendrick, she realized she just hadn’t been with the right male. Now sex and his hot sculpted body were constantly on her mind.

Introduction: Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein” is a book with a deep message that touches to the very heart. This message implies that the reader will not see the story only from the perspective of the narrator but also reveal numerous hidden opinions and form a personal interpretation of the novel. One of its primary statements is that no one is born a monster and a “monster” is created throughout socialization, and the process of socialization starts from the contact with the “creator”. It is Victor Frankenstein that could not take the responsibility for his creature and was not able to take care of his “child”. Pride and vanity were the qualities that directed Victor Frankenstein to his discovery of life: “...So much has been done, exclaimed the soul of Frankenstein-more, far more, will I achieve: treading in the steps already marked, I will pioneer a new way, explore unknown powers, and unfold to the world the deepest mysteries of creation”[p.47]. He could not cope with this discovery and simply ignored it. The tragedy of Victor Frankenstein and the tragedy of his creature is the same – it is the tragedy of loneliness and confronting the world, trying to find a place in it and deserve someone’s love. The creature would have never become a monster if it got the love it strived for. Victor Frankenstein would have never converted his creature into a monster if he knew how to love and take responsibility for the ones we bring to this world.
