New Siggy For Me!; come in and critisize

Okay, so I have a few days before I have to hand in my literature coursework. The essay is about the monster in Mary Shelly's Frankenstien. It is intended to be about whether the monster is actually a 'monster' or a 'victim'.

I just need some information/ a discussion about both points to help me out.
(It will also help out a few others in my English class :P )

I will try my best to pull myself away from essay writing to join in.

Please don't post in this topic if you can't help.

Manoz try and go into the ideas of how the monster can be portrayed by genral public and you and go into how you would feel if you were in the monsters positions

Also use P.E.E paragraphs from scenes such as the vottage chapters and also the creation of the monster along with how the rejection causes the victimisation and then leads onto the death of family members in the way of revenge


Hope i helped and Mr Wood Wont moan at us for having some of the same points

Id say he was a victim, just because he was created from other people's dead parts- that doesnt make him different. He didnt ask to be put into some huge scary body. The only reason people recongize him as a monster, was because he did some different things and looked different (ok maybe people dont have screws sticking outta there heads.) But still!


Thats like DISCRIMINATION.

good point. Similar to "To kill a mockingbird". Just because Tom Robinson was black, he was instantly charged with his crime <_< .

that is a good point and btw frankenstiwen had no crews out of his head in the original peice of literature that we are studing( me manoz smellyneo and others here on the forum) i must say that the phrase "do not judge a book by it's cover" springs to mind as this fits the contxt of the statements very well

This isn't the sterotypical Frankenstein we see at Halloween paties etc.

People didn't see him as a monster because he not only looked different but because he murderd many people throughout the novel. He is a very violent creature.
However, I see him as a victim, not because everyone is scared of him, but because of the fact that Frankenstein didn't show any responsibility when bringing the creature into the world, he simply ran away. This left the creature to basically raise himself, learning morals from books etc. rather than Frankenstein who could have acted as a parental figure.

Though even if he did murder people it wasnt his fault he had a "Violent" mind. It wasnt his fault the doctor created him!!!

EDIT: Yes, I read it over and your right... A LITTLE bit more than me mind you ;). That was like growing up without a parent. No one around you to tell bad or good. So anyone can make a mistake like that.
