1 Mary Shelley s Invention Did you know that one of the most well-known and enduring monsters of all time was created by an 18-year-old girl during a ghost story writing contest? Surprisingly, in the summer of 1816, Mary Godwin bested two well-known writers, Lord Byron and Percy Shelley, when they each set out to see who could create the most frightening story. Be a Better Reader As you work through the study guide for Frankenstein, you will also practice these skills, which will help you when you read novels in the future, for school assignments or just for fun. 1. Describe the development of the main character. 2. Discuss how the plot develops throughout the novel. 3. Describe themes in the novel and trace their development throughout the text. 4. Cite textual evidence to support discussion of the novel. 5. Describe and analyze the role of setting in the novel. Behind the Scenes Despite being a horror novel, Frankenstein also fits boasts the characteristics of Romanticism with its emphases on personal expression, nature, and emotional responses. It is, however, also categorized as a Gothic novel due to its creepy, far-away settings the supernatural characters and as one of the first science fiction novels since it includes scientific principles and technology. Get This! 1. Mary Shelley s Frankenstein is subtitled The Modern Prometheus, after the Greek mythological character who creates the first humans from clay. As you read, watch for reasons why this is an appropriate subtitle for the novel. 2. Notice how Shelley uses creation stories, fire, lightning, and nature to parallel and symbolize aspects of the novel. 3. As you read, think about how Mary Shelley s Frankenstein compares and contrasts to the Frankenstein creature shown in popular culture books and movies.
2 The Plot Mary Shelley s Frankenstein allows Robert Walton to narrate the story of Victor Frankenstein s creation of the monster and its difficulties relating to humankind.. As you read the novel, fill in the boxes for each element of the plot.
3 The Character of Victor Frankenstein Frankenstein focuses on Victor Frankenstein s life story, his choice to create the monster, and the disastrous effects of that decision. For each of the instances below, identify a passage about or a quote by Victor Frankenstein. Then discuss what the author is trying to convey through it. Look for a pattern that describes Victor Frankenstein and write a few sentences about his character. Example 1. How Victor Frankenstein thinks his creation will regard him Passage about or Quote by Victor Frankenstein What the Author is Trying to Convey 2. Victor Frankenstein s reaction at seeing his creature come to life 3. Victor Frankenstein s reaction to seeing the creature in the Alps 4. Victor thoughts while working to create another monster. 5. Victor s reasons for pursuing the creature Summarize the character of Victor Frankenstein:
4 The Setting In Frankenstein, Mary Shelley consistently utilizes settings with a faraway, haunted feeling to evoke a Gothic mood. For each location, provide a specific passage which describes it from the novel, then explain the message Shelley is trying to convey. Location 1. Robert Walton s description of the Arctic Passage Describing the Location What Shelley is Trying to Convey 2. Victor Frankenstein s process of making the creature 3. Victor spends time hiking in the Alps. 4. Victor retreats to the Orkney Islands to create a female monster. 5. The weather on Victor and Elizabeth s wedding night Summarize how Shelley uses the settings to enhance the novel:
5 Tracking Themes Mary Shelley uses the story of Victor Frankenstein and his creation to address the themes of using knowledge for good or evil purposes, the desire for companionship, and the power of nature. See if you can identify and analyze those themes in the novel. Step 1: What parts of the plot seem related to a possible theme in the novel? (Think about the main conflict and how it get resolved or worked out.) Step 2: Which characters seem related to a possible theme? Which characters change, and what do those changes suggest about knowledge, companionship, or nature? Step 3: How does the author use symbols to hint at the novel s themes? What objects, people, or places stand for something bigger in the story? Step 4: What does the novel s title suggest about the novel s theme? Step 5: Write one or two of the novel s main themes in your own words.
6 Talk About It What do you think about Frankenstein? How does it compare to the Frankenstein of popular culture? Could Victor Frankenstein have done anything different to help his creature acclimate to his new surroundings? In the space below each question, write an answer based on your own understanding of the novel. Include some textual evidence or examples that helped you arrive at your answer. 1. How does Mary Shelley s Frankenstein creature compare to the monster portrayed in movies and popular culture? Use specific examples to compare and contrast the creatures. Textual Evidence: 2. Assess Victor Frankenstein s behavior after he gave life to the creature. What, if anything, could Victor have done differently to help the creature acclimate to his new surroundings? Textual Evidence:
7 Represent! Show what you know about Frankenstein and its relevance to your life. Choose one of these projects to complete and share with your teacher, classmates, and others. Choice 1: Update the Novel Mary Shelley s Frankenstein incorporates minimal technology into the monster s creation, even though it does allow a modern-day reader to ponder questions of life and death. Create an updated version of Frankenstein and bring it into the 21 st century. Think about how the monster s creation would differ if he was created today. What aspects of the creature s early life would differ from that portrayed in the novel? Create a DVD or Power Point presentation to share your updated Frankenstein with your class. Choice 2: Let Him Explain Himself Many readers fault Victor Frankenstein for the creature s behavior, but perhaps Victor gets a bad rap. Let s give him a chance to explain himself. Create and perform a monologue as Victor Frankenstein to allow him to express the reasons he behaved as he does toward his creature. Be sure to write your monologue in the form of a play.
