Essay / Research Paper Abstract
5 pages in length. When one considers the primary importance of Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein," the first thing to typically come to mind is the notion of conflict and misunderstanding. In a completely separate light, however, Shelley's "Frankenstein" also mirrors a particular component of social address that deals directly with the concept of heroism and the means by which such heroic actions do not always lend themselves to positive outcome. Indeed, the monster can be considered a heroic figure in that his attempts at being a gentle soul often cause him great suffering; through his metamorphosis of character, the ultimately kind-hearted monster as a heroic figure meets his fate after a long and violent struggle with opposing social forces. No additional sources cited.

It is any wonder, then, that his creation was to also harbor those same haunted and disturbing characteristics, as well, that manifested in violence and rage? It can readily
be argued that Frankensteins creature mirrored his maker in more ways than even Victor realized, finally metamorphosing from rage to gentleness as the direct result of Victors absence of negativity.
Perhaps Victor feels that in giving life to a pile of bones and sinew he can spare himself the pain of death not only for himself, but for those
who mean the most to him. Yet when Victor realizes his dream and sees life awaken in the pieced together body he has prepared, it is not the realization
for which he had hoped. Instead, he witnesses his creation, his wellspring of new life become a killing machine, bringing death and despair to those all about him.
