Literary Analysis'
-In this review Addie(author of analysis) believes that solitude was the base of the novel and that instead of solitude being a force that shows people the right path from wrong is really something that ruins the soul. Addie proves this with the quote from page 58 “’I had desired it with an ardour that far exceeded moderation; but now that I had finished, the beauty of the dream vanished, and breathless horror and disgust filled my heart,’” She explains that Victor was in a very dark place and he didn't even realize how dark until his monster was created and this creation ended up being the end of him. "’You seek for knowledge and wisdom, as I once did; and I ardently hope that the gratification of your wishes may not be a serpent to sting you, as mine has been,’” (p.31) i agree with this analysis because of the repeating themes throughout the story, like taking ownership for mistakes and also solitude and togetherness.
-I found exactly what you wanted Mrs. Hatten, your feminist view of the novel. Stephanie who is the author of this post states that facts that all of the women in the novel are tools used by Mary to get the story and point of the male characters across, to me this isn't as big of a deal because even though this book was written by a female author the motto of the time was not exactly Woman's Rights! further more she just wanted to talk about how demeaning and terrible this book was to women, an example of this she exclaimed was when Saffie was learning the language of the cottagers that the book didn't even care for if Saffie finished her studies because the monster already finished before her. Stephanie though only really seems like she is trying to make her point in a few sections of the review but i again always thought that the book is only really centered around Frankenstein and his creation because this book was written before women could even vote.
-This young lady goes by the name of Hannah and she like you Hatten absolutely hated this book whilst I read along only concerned about how much my brain could take Victorian language. Well Hannah starts off the review with something that makes sense if your gonna trash a book, she says "Well, Mary Shelley was a teen when she wrote this. Color me impressed. At 19 I was just looking for my next college boyfriend, not penning the great English classic. Kudos to Mary for that." but then she just rambles on on how the main character Victor was too dramatic and wimpy, I on the other hand was in love with how caring and compassionate Victor was towards most of the people in the novel, i often thought of how rude and uncivilized our social society has gotten. furthermore she just makes random and unintelligent comments about the book and i only used her
