Victor, Tomas, And Victor 's Dad All Change

That seemed to be the only time that Victor was nice enough to Thomas. Victor was a hypocrite when it came to his roots. He was disappointed in the Tribal Council because they wouldn’t give him more than one hundred dollars. Then he turns around and treats Thomas the same way. The flashbacks were useful when Victor discussed his father.

Braeden teased that these scenes will be emotional, as this will make Victor feel all alone similarly to how he felt when he “was left on the doorstep of an orphanage at the age of 7 by people who supposedly loved him”. Braeden went on to share how much similarities he and his character share. He lost his father at the tender age of 12 and the family he grew up in was destitute. Upon losing his father he made some life changes some he highlights resonates with his character’s sense of being alone.

As of now, Victor is in a bit of a tricky situation. After being asked to be taught French by the girl whom he loved, the teacher recognizes this moment as one of which he’s braved through before. He as well lied about having been able to know how to do something, and felt like he should perhaps help Victor in this situation. The idea often recurs in the story that lying and deception might in some ways, be risky, yet profiting for the purposes of “good.” This follows my theme statement, of which states how lying could be a risk people can take in order to love them. A third time this happens, where it is very lightly touched upon. Victor’s friend often scowls throughout the story in order to make him look like the men on magazines in brightly lit homes. He believes that this “makeup” as one might call it, make him look handsome and

Victor’s questionable actions are apparent, however his benevolent qualities are greater. Victor truly does possess a lot of good qualities, but sadly, the creation of another human tainted him. One of his most predominant moral characteristics is his love and cherish for Elizabeth Lavenza. For example, Victor states “I would die to make her happy” (Shelley 167). This is evidence that he cares about others and he is not entirely immoral. On the other hand, Victor’s only major evil quality was his desire to become God. “A new species would bless me as its creator and source; many happy and excellent natures would owe their being to me” (Shelley 48). This is proof that he wanted to become godly and control life and death which ultimately caused his downfall.

As a romantic novel Victor is responsible, because he abandoned his creation. As an archetype novel, Victor is the villain, because he was trying to play god. Finally,

Even though she said so many good things about his father and about things he was afraid of, Victor did not want to show any compassion for his father. It is like the story on Real Boys, Inside the World of Boys: Behind the Mask of Masculinity. Victor was hiding behind this mask so he would not show his emotions. However, after the accident, he began to think about his father. He understood that no one could be perfect and he finally saw that he really loved his father.

The little hurricanes that came brought destruction in many ways, shapes and forms. Victor grew up with alcoholic parents and family. He had a furious love for them even when they could not return the love back. He could remember the good times, they were quickly brought low when the recollection took a turn for the worst. The hurricanes came and went, leaving him to pick up the pieces.

So Vengefulness and Family ties are one of the best significant aspects affecting the resemblance of both victor and this monster created by him. As a Youngin victor was left without a mom and as a result he missed out on the experience of (one would say) a mothers love and warm touch. Like the monster not only missed out but didn’t have anyone at all to love, but he had to teach himself things. Back on track to what I was saying, as a result, the missing feelings in there lonely lives caused the two to be driven with way more rage then patience and true pure love.

The major turning point of the novel then begins; Victor endeavors to create a human being.  If he would have been unsuccessful, the novel would have ended, but the question of whether it was moral to even attempt to create life would have still remained.  Thus, the single most important and overriding theme in the novel begins - morality versus scientific discovery.  “Questions of morality did not enter Victor's mind a single time before the creation of his human being."(Botting 112)  He did not ponder the effects of his creation.  Victor had a goal - to create life.  By doing so

22. How does Victor feel when his father offers the idea that perhaps an immediate marriage to

Victor describes his childhood in chapter two. Victor’s description of his childhood is quite perfect. The poverty of Elizabeth is quickly overshadowed by the love of Victor’s family. Victor’s image of Elizabeth in his nightmares could foreshadow her future death. Throughout chapter two Victor makes many statements talking about his fate foreshadow his imminent demise. The use of foreshadowing in chapter two seems to have two opposite effects. On one side it creates suspense leaving the reader to speculate about the tragedy that Victor has faced in his past. On the contrary it takes away some suspense because the reader knows Victor is hopeless and that he is doomed.

At this point Victor is responsible for two deaths and must keep this all to himself. By suffering through the guilt and the illness it is clear that his decisions that were made in order to deepen his knowledge of the scientific world are becoming dangerous to himself and the people close to him.

His relationship with his father influenced his behaviors later in the novel when Victor is given the chance to guide someone else in a foreign world, he choose to let them have a ‘child’s blindness’ since he only knows how to guide himself.

Victor Frankenstein, a complex character created by Mary Shelley, experienced a complete change in attitude and perspective on the scientific world as he knew it. Between the deaths of his close family and friends, to the constant fight for survival as his own creation stalked him, Victor was under straining circumstances that allowed for his evolution as a character. Pre monster, Victor had strong morals and close relationships with his family. His family was his priority. Victor’s dedication to science was always a constant nagging in the back of his mind, but it did not mean more to him than his family dead. During the formation of his creation, he began to block off his family, especially his fiancee, Elizabeth. His dedication to science was his only priority, above food and hygiene. He was driven by the creation of his monster. After creation, his family members were killed off, eliminating any type of relationship he had with them, he rejected all science and moral values.

Victor is noted for blaming himself throughout the entire plot, which characterizes much of his personality. He claims, ?I, not in deed, but in effect, was the true murderer? (63). He, therefore, blames himself for the murders of William, Justine, and Henry.
