Monstrous Individual In Frankenstein
Throughout Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein the creature faces a constant struggle when he has an encounter with humans. There are many incidents that help develop the creature into a monstrous individual, however one incident that ultimately results the creature becoming a monstrous individual is when the creature is having a conversation with the blind old man about how society treats him. During their conversation, the cottage doors opened and Felix, Safie, and Agatha entered. The initial reaction of Felix when he witnessed the creature was he battered the creature, “violently with a stick” (Shelley 97). Due to Felix’s actions the creature ran away from the cottager with a heart filled, “ with bitter sickness” (Shelley 97). The creature admired
the Cottagers, and the way the Cottagers reacted to him developed a deep hatred. After the incident with Felix, and the cottagers the creature confessed to Victor how his, “feelings were rage and revenge” (Shelley 97). This incident is the most significant experience that the creature goes through that transforms him into a monstrous individual because the creature desires “revenge” on the cottagers after how he was treated. This is the primary incident that results in the creature demanding Victor to create a female companion.
