Several fields have studied the relationship between creator and creation. The most significant aspect of this research considers the difference between nature and nurture. Sociologists, psychologists, scientists, and other professionals have tried to pin down the exact distinctions between these two types of upbringings. In literature, the same questions have been asked and studied using fictional characters, most famously in John Milton’s Paradise Lost, in 1667, and Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, in 1818. The complexity of the characters in these texts creates the theme of nature versus nurture before they diverge and arrive at differing conclusions.

I peered around through the rain, desperately searching for some shelter, I was drowning out here. The trouble was, I wasn’t in the best part of town, and in fact it was more than a little dodgy. I know this is my home turf but even I had to be careful. At least I seemed to be the only one out here on such an awful night. The rain was so powerfully loud I couldn’t hear should anyone try and creep up on me. I also couldn’t see very far with the rain so heavy and of course there were no street lights, they’d been broken long ago. The one place I knew I could safely enter was the church, so I dashed.

In Shelley’s Frankenstein, the monster is portrayed as a grotesque abomination. However, as Hopkins states in Contending Forces, the cultural and geographical situations, or lack thereof, in which one matures in play a crucial role in the proper development of one’s mind and brain. The monster is simply a product of circumstance. The lack of social interactions alongside geographical isolation propelled the daemon to be alienated from society, ultimately resulting in a lack of morals and an underdeveloped psyche. By being a culmination of his surroundings and experiences it is revealed that the true monstrous entities are the factors that leave the daemon predisposed to fail in a modern society. Arguably, Victor created a being, while the circumstances that said being was placed in “created” a monster.

This is the longest the twins had been separated from each other. Reggie was back in his home in Hoxton with his mother and grandfather, Jimmy Lee, while his poor brother Ronnie suffered alone at the hospital. Due to this, Ronnie was constantly begging for his mother 's attention. He was lonely and demanded his mother 's love at all times. She took him out of the hospital on her own accord since she knew he would only get worse lying in the hospital all day. She was right and Ronnie started slowly improving. Violet and Reggie also noted a change in Ronnie as the days went by. No longer was he the playful, outgoing boy he used to be. He was more shy and reserved, and much less talkative. Since Ronnie was so young when he had diphtheria, it could have caused permanent impairment. Ronnie and Reggie started to act up more as they got older, and Ronnie constantly tried to outdo his seemingly perfect brother (Pearson 25-26).

Not everyone loves musicals as much as others, but most people can recognize when someone says “FEED ME” or “DON’T FEED THE PLANTS”. The well-known musical Little Shop of Horrors took over the Dubois Little Theater this December under the direction of Ms. Shannon McNutt. Little Shop of Horrors is a fun, musical about a “young botanical genius,” Seymour Krelborn, his boss, and future foster father, Mr. Mushnik, and the young, dramatic and attractive Audrey. Seymour was a shy and sheltered man until he found a strange and interesting plant, which he named Audrey Two after his one true love, Audrey. The musical follows Seymour as he tries to get his sentient, bloodthirsty plant to grow so he can reap the benefits, but his morals quickly catch up with him as he begins to lose everything that matters. I believe that this show was worthwhile to see and be part of.
