    Whenever we hear the tale of Frankenstein‚ our natural instinct is to demonize the creature himself. We’ve heard of his heinous acts and known of his unnatural upbringing; yet‚ we never question the origins of his trivial motives.

    Compare the ways in which ambition is presented in Act 1 of ‘Macbeth’ and chapter 5 of ‘Frankenstein’. Pay close attention to the writers presentation of ideas and relate your thoughts to the social and historical content of the texts.

    inanimate body. I had desired it with an ardour that far exceeded moderation; but now that I had finished‚ the beauty of the dream vanished‚ and breathless horror and disgust filled my heart.” (Shelley‚ 1831‚ p. 74 (Chapter V – Paragraph 3).
