Responsibility Flashcards
Oh god I have murdered my darling child
Elizabeth takes excessive parental responsibility vs Victorio and his lack of it
The first hapless victors to my ungallowed arts
Víctor at benefit of hindsight relegate on how it may not have been all the creatures fault
Unhallowed- suggests unholy and unnatural we are forced to think of the creation of the monster when victor chose to ‘dig up charnel houses’ god forbidden madman
Hapeless - innocence of his victims
My unhallowed arts - creature
Do your duty towards me and I will do my duty towards you and all of the rest of mankind
Creature realised his injustice
Simple ask
Wants to be loved
Here I retreated from the barbarity of man
He’s rejected and alienaréis by man
Shows how society has failed its responsibility to the creature due to his looks
Creature has human features and desires love but he still doesn’t fit in shows us the dangers of predjudice ( mary Shelley was still racist towards the ‘Turks’ but she is seen as progressive for her time )
