30 - Frankenstein-  or, the Modern Prometheus by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

30 - Frankenstein- or, the Modern Prometheus by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

Delve into this timeless gothic horror tale, one of the pioneering works of science fiction. At its heart are Dr. Frankenstein and his chilling creation, the daemon. Shelley describes the scientist as a pale student of unhallowed arts and his monstrous creation as a hideous phantasm of a man. This haunting narrative not only captivates with its frightful elements but also serves as a profound critique of the scientific advancements of its time, exploring the ethical dilemmas faced by those who dare to challenge the boundaries of creation. As Shelley poignantly reflects, Frightful must it be; for supremely frightful would be the effect of any human endeavour to mock the stupendous mechanism of the Creator of the world. - Summary by jvanstan
