It’s clearly Victor’s fault: he was impulsive and didn’t plan on how creating this creature would impact him and those around him.

just so yall know when Frankenstein is on the hunt for the monster the monster would leave food for viktor, leave obvious clues so viktor would have a sense of tracking easily and kept a slow pace for viktor so he wouldnt get so tired quickly. very sad yet powerful story

I wouldn’t say Victor is the monster. He didn’t want people to die because of him. It’s just his lack of caution and influences from that age that led to the death of those people. The creature on the other hand got the wisdom to be able to decide whether he would kill or not.

poor thing, to think that just because he was "recycled", to be treated like this. I see a strange parallelism between the story of Frankenstein's creature that I would call him "Frank" or like "Neo-Adam" and Pinocchio the puppet, especially in the "birth" both "born" from inanimate things and come to life, but the big difference is in the "fathers": Mister Geppetto was a poor old man full of love he had the responsibilities of having children, instead Victor as soon as he sees his "paternal duties" he would say "What does it matter to me", he goes away (including at the aspect of its creation). and at the end of the comparison Geppetto gets a good son, and instead Victor... (well you know how it ends).

In the novel, while living in the shack beside the de Lacey cottage, the monster comes across some books.. among them is Milton's Paradise Lost. He reads this and begins to formulate his own self-image as akin to the character of Lucifer in Milton's telling: a tragic hero, rejected and abandoned by a creator who shows love and compassion to everyone but him. This is sort of where he begins to really perceive what he is, and understand his own emotions and trauma; then by extension to justify his future actions as the bringer of just consequences to an irresponsible father. He, like Milton's Lucifer, sees himself as a dejected wretch who craves love and acceptance, but also believes himself unworthy because no one will give it to him, and then projects the fault of that onto his creator, Viktor -- almost to the extent that he ascribes malice to Viktor in creating him in the first place. As in: "why would you create me like this just to hate and abandon me, leaving me to live a life of pain and hate?" It really is an excellent book. I'm not exactly a literary scholar, but well-read enough to say this is one of my favourite classic books. It's really accessible to read, not much longer than, say, The Hobbit, and moves the plot along at a good enough pace to stay interesting.

Victor is trying to play god and became a monster the second he left his creation to fend for itself also Victor and Frankenstein are the same person… because Frankenstein is Victors last name, the monster is only referred to as the monster hope this helps

@@sueyu7536 I call the monster Frankenstein cause he don’t got a name. I don’t need help knowing something obviously written in the book. What I do need help to understand though is why people place such a big emphasis on “playing god”. As if attempting to bring something to life will call upon divine punishment. Sure the author may have implied that theme if we take in common sentiments during her time of industrialization and scientific progress but looking at the work solely, “playing god” is not relevant to the story at all 😂 all he did was manipulating biology. People been doing that for centuries. Crop yields increase, wolf’s became dogs, spices became edible, fruits became sweeter, etc. Frankensteins only mistake was being an irresponsible bitch. The product “monster” itself was neutral and even innate goodness in him when he was born.

@techsupport154 Ай бұрын

@@Starnoch It is very relevant hence why the story is referred to as "The modern Prometheus" which provides the context for the novel about abusing power which belongs to the gods. The examples you listed of evolution are nowhere near on the magnitude of creating a superior species with human parts. God created humans to be superior for a reason, this defies God. His downfall is a significant effect of playing God. Your examples listed have nothing to do with playing God.

@Starnoch Ай бұрын

@@techsupport154 Your only argument is your differing religious beliefs. I can’t argue when logic isn’t at hand. Both Frankenstein and the list I’ve stated is Manipulating nature, tempering with “Gods creation”. There isn’t a way to objectively determine the magnitude between each, and even if there was they both fall under the same category. Give a hundred or so years and we’ll begin to see a lot more of this category. Cloning, dna manipulation, artificial stem cells to prolong life. Nevertheless my point stands.
