Rejection: from humans and labeled a monster. The aspect of Victor’s actions by making the creature he made from death led by a chain of event all impacted the creature from rejection. When the creature was just trying to help the little girl he was shot because of how he looked. When the creature accidently killed William since the creature thought the child will accept me he is not biased. How the creature lurked in the shadows while he was being educated indirectly. Even with the conflict with the DeLacey’s the creature is again isolated and unwanted. The vulnerability the creature went through. We saw the creature to be portrayed in the book as unwanted, hideous monster were we felt he was a misguided creature who just needed to have some love, nurturance, and compassion given to him, and in this way to show: the creature may see reason and think rationally rather than he has nothing to lose, even though it may be true.

Who is the real monster the creature or victor Frankenstein? We used the deaths of: William, Justine, Elizabeth, Clerval, and Victor’s father; as an example; since Victor had made a chain of events that he set into motion. Because of his actions there was a consequence and in his case it was at his loved ones expense.

Day 1- Victor's study choice dictated dark path. Father not caring what Victor was reading also played a part. Another book wouldn't have been scary. Day 2-the change of the scenery would change the monster, and that Shelley chose the location due to her feelings about her own country compared to others.

"National philosophy is the genius that has regulated my fate." -pg 21 "Ah! Cornelius Agrippa! My dear Victor, do not waste your time upon this; it is sad trash." -pg 22

"Every minute, every instant that you that you have wasted on those books is utterly and entirely lost. You have burdened your memory with exploded systems, and useless names. Good God! in what desert land have you lived, where no one was kind enough to inform you that these fancies, which you have so greedily imbibed, are a thousand years old, and as musty as they are ancient? I little expected in this enlightened and scientific age to find a disciple of Albertus Magnus and Paracelus. My dear Sir, you must begin your studies entirely anew." -pg 28

"I greedily devoured the remnants of the shepherd's breakfast, which consisted of bread, cheese, milk, and wine; the latter, however, i did not like. Then overcome by fatigue, I lay down among some straw and fell asleep." -pg 78

"The whole village was roused; some fled, some attacked me, until, grievously bruised by stones and many other kinds of missle weapons, I escaped to the open country, and fearfully took refuge in a low hovel, quite bare, and making a wretched appearance after the palaces i had beheld in the village." -pg 78

"Great God!' exclaimed the old man, 'who are you?' "At that instant the cottage door was opened, and Feliz, Safie and Agatha entered. Who can describe their horror and consternation on beholding me? Agatha fainted; and Safie, unable to attend to her friend, rushed out of the cottage. Felix darted forward, and with supernatural force tore me from his father, to whose knees I clung: in a transport of fury, he dashed me to the ground, and struck me violently with a stick. I could have torn him limb from limb, as the lion rends the antelope. But my heart sunk within me as with bitter sickness, and i refrained. I saw him on the point of repeating his blow, when, overcome by pain and anguish, I quitted the cottage, and in the general tumult escaped unperceived to my hovel." -pg 103 Elizabeth's letter to Victor-sorry I didn't have my book on me.edited by1320846575 1320716467

-Who really is the monster? -Why the North Pole? -Why did Mary Shelly write the ending the way she did - At What points did the monster turn into a "monster"

Key Arguments Made by Secondary Sources
- It's your own opinion who is really the monster? - The North Pole was a scene used in many novels at the time - Mary Shelley wanted to leave readers questioning and wondering.
