Throughout Frankenstein by Mary Shelley female characters are in the novel‚ but none of them have played a strong role in the book. Mary Shelley’s mother was a writer and advocate of women’s rights‚ and while Mary Shelley does write off of her personal experiences; in this case she does not. Elizabeth‚ Caroline‚ and Justine’s passive roles in Frankenstein are what Mary Shelley uses to draw attention to the monster and Victor’s behavior‚ and gender roles.

Sabrina Smith Faithful Women Anne Bradstreet and Mary Rowlandson were two influential women in early American literature. They were both women of “firsts”.

Image 3 3a. This book cover does not correlate with my preconceived notions about Frankenstein because there is a naked man instead of the stereotypical green and blockhead monster. 3b. Based on this cover‚ I believe that the creature is very vulnerable‚ as he is naked. In addition‚ I think the creature is ashamed of himself as portrayed through his curled up body language‚ almost “hiding” his body from the scientist or the society around him. Moreover‚ his face‚ which appears flustered‚ indicates

Noor Saket S00032848 Prof. Hanan Muzaffar ENGL 309 10 Oct. 2016 R&R on Shelly’s Frankenstein The first thing that I have noticed while reading Frankenstein is its simple writing style. Unlike Wollstonecraft’s and Wordsworth’s works‚ the sentences are of moderate length and simple diction. One of my favorite lines is by Victor Frankenstein: “My life might have been passed in ease and luxury; but I preferred glory to every enticement that wealth placed in my path” (P 9). I find this quote is important
