Mellor is one reader who was effected so much she wrote a response in a critical essay called Possessing Nature: The Female in Frankenstein.

Discuss the presentation of women in the novel. Do Victor and the monster differ in their views of women‚ and if so how? In “Frankenstein”‚ Mary Shelley exemplifies each woman as submissive and disposable.

Kel Kelsey Rama Zappa English 4 3/26/13 Mirrored Selves Victor Frankenstein‚ the creature and Robert Walton are three characters in Mary Shelly’s novel “Frankenstein” that are very similar due to their contribution to the duality in the story.
