Themes (Frankenstein)
Fichas del conjunto (5)
- 1CreationWhile Victor usurps the role of God, his primary crime seems less the act of creation than the failure to take responsibility for what he creates.
- 2AlienationBoth Victor and the monster are isolated individuals, but Victor rebels against human ties and chooses alienation, while the monster's imposed isolation makes him miserable.
- 3DoubleEmbodying a division within the human psyche, such doubles as Victor/monster demonstrate tension between the laws of society and the desires of the individual.
- 4FamilyWhile the Preface claims "Frankenstein" demonstrates ideal 'domestic affections', the family is actually criticised for imposing artificial gender distinctions and for its insularity.
- 5Monstrous and humanThe distinction between these terms is problematic: the monster is initially more humane than the father who rejects him and the villagers who stone him.
