Frankenstein; or, the modern prometheus
Résumé
Frankenstein; Or, The Modern Prometheus is a Gothic novel by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, published in 1818. It follows Victor Frankenstein, a young scientist who carries out an unorthodox experiment: he creates a living creature from assembled body parts. After the creature awakens, Victor responds with fear and flees, leaving his creation behind. The creature must then learn how to navigate a world that responds with suspicion and rejection, gradually acquiring language and seeking connection. Growing embittered and isolated, it eventually confronts Victor with a desperate request that places both characters on a path marked by worsening conflict and tragedy.
