Should The Creature Be Considered Human Frankenstein
I believe that The creature can be considered human because, he has the same great emotions just like humans he understands pain and he knows what it is like to be miserable for the sake of himself, he has developed great knowledge over the years and has begun to understand the purpose of humans, he has understand the emotions of himself and others, he should be considered human because of his knowledge with that, he shouldn't be left behind without a specific purpose besides for the way that he looks. Over the years of being miserable he had understand the meaning of happiness when he had seen the man and the couple that had all lived together in a cabin, the had showed happiness to each other, the creature knew what it was like to be miserable, but he did not see them acting the way that he was acting which made him change his emotion on how he saw things, besides thinking about Victor, he knew that was how you would treat someone, because Victor had never treated him that when the family had showed kindness to each he felt a warm welcome …show more content…
He has great logic that he had kept through his years of living he knew what it was like to be miserable and happy and when it was taken away, he deserves some respect out in the world from some humans, because of his knowledge I believe that even he will be a creature and not really a being he has a gift of reading books as well and logic, he still deserves a mate in general to create love with her and see what it is like to be happy and not miserable. He needs love just like other humans do and if so the humans think that they don't belong there then then can go to a secret place where they can be happy. He doesn't need to be a disgusting creature just Victor said he has a gift that not even Victor himself can

    During the creation scene, the creature is portrayed as a malicious beast by Victor and the reader blindly accepts his perspective because in the reader’s mind, Victor is a human while the Creature is not. As humans, we have a tendency to sympathize with the human Victor as opposed to the non-human Creature. As the story progresses to volume two, Mary Shelley challenges the reader’s perspective by providing a panoramic view of the Creature so the reader can gain a perspective through the Creature’s eyes and thus it allows Shelley to challenge what the reader views as…

    The main character trait between Victor and the creature is their love of nature. For example, “My country, my beloved country! Who but a native can tell the delight I took in again beholding thy streams, thy mountains, and, more than all, thy lovely lake” (Shelley 52). Even though Victor is grieving over William’s death, he still finds peace and tranquility through nature. The creature also indulges in the beauty of nature and he also finds peace. “Soon a gentle light stole over the heavens, and gave me a sensation on pleasure” (Shelly 75). When Victor left the creature right after he created him, the creature had no one to care for him so he fled to woods and found that nature enlightens him just as it does for his creator. “The sky became clouded; but the air was pure, although chilled by the north-east breeze that was then rising. But it refreshed me, and filled me with such agreeable sensations…” (Shelly 134). When Victor through the female creature in…

    One reason why the creature should be considered human is because he has emotions, he thinks alike, and he makes mistakes like any normal human would. When the creature first approaches Victor, they both explicitly start arguing with each other and Victor accuses the creature of "murdering" his younger brother William and pinning it on…

    Victor begins to tell the story of how he became interested in natural philosophy, and what kept him interested. He had a thirst for knowledge, and when his father defiled the book Victor was reading and learning from, it lit a fire within him to do everything possible to prove his father wrong. Although Victor felt upset by this situation, it pained him more that his father did not teach him why he felt this book was “sad trash” (68). Therefore, Victor felt neglected by his father and maintained an unfulfilled desire for a father that truly cared. Along with this neglect came the feeling that he was “destined for some great enterprise.” Alas, to an outsider, Victor did just that. He created a living being from nothing. However, Victor only viewed his creation as a monster and not as an astounding scientific discovery. One last thing that Victor wanted for numerous years was to see the death of his creation (118). He became aware of the horror that he had created at the exact moment it came to life and tracked Creature down for years. Because neither Creature, nor Victor were real (they were broken parts of Walton’s psyche), only Walton would be able to put Creature to…

    In the chapters 4 and 5 from the book “Frankenstein”, explains how he creates the creature and the ideas that lead him to his creation. In the beginning of chapter 4, it made it pretty obvious that Frankenstein was interested in the idea of dead people. For example, Frankenstein stated that “to examine the causes of life, we must first have to recourse to death,”(Shelley 18). This proves to show that Frankenstein was already planning on making his creature apart of death. Another process that Frankenstein used to construct his creature was when he thought about the creature as himself. To further explain, he says that “I should attempt the creation of a being myself,”(Shelley 19). Frankenstein then created the creature with characteristics…

    In the book Frankenstein, the Monster adopted a crime and hate filled life mainly because of his interactions with humans. This is a reflection of Mary Shelley's views on human nature. While Mary Shelley was writing the book, she believed that humans are mutable, and that what they become is based off of events that occur in their lives, and decisions they make during their lifetime, and the Monster is a perfect example of this; he starts out innocent, but the abandonment from Victor Frankenstein, and the harsh treatment from people turned the Monster into an angry being.…

    Despite the fact that after being treated the way he was by others, the monster seeks revenge for Victor’s abandonment and for making him an unbearable scene to be seen by mankind. Throughout the novel, the creature seeks revenge by killing Victor’s love ones one by one. In Chapter 11 when the monster is telling his tale to Victor he states, “… but I had hardly placed my foot within the door, before the children shrieked, and one of the women fainted…and fearfully took refuge in a low hovel...” Yet, after seeing the dark side of the monster Victor is still un-human for his abandonment of his creation. It’s a horrible thing to abandon one’s creation and very cruel to leave a defenseless thing roams about by itself in the world and hoping that it will die soon. Victor was wrong to abandon his creation because of its appearances; he didn’t bother to get to know the poor monster. The author did a great job making the reader feel more sorrow for the monster than for Victor. The monster has been attacked and hurt for doing either nothing at all or helping others.…

    The first thing that the creature experienced when he was “born” was Victor running and hiding in fear of what he had created. Seeing this would have a huge mental impact on what he thinks of other people. This would create a negative association with humans. Another time people ran from the creature was when…

    Transhumanist ideals and human enhancements find themselves under great scrutiny again and again because of ethical concerns over whether humanity should possess the capability to alter what it naturally is. Bioethical attacks jump on new and controversial procedures and are quick to compare them to the experiments of the Nazi Mengele or the fictional Victor Frankenstein. The two are quite similar, performing unnatural experiments kept away from the public eye. Both played God in their own ways, but only because their actions were deliberately gruesome and unnecessary in nature. It is not truly understood if these scientific tragedies and those similar are performed for the sake of experimentation with a dangerous lust for what is seen as…
