The term indulgence is connected to the concept of sin, or actions in opposition to God's laws. In Luther's time, when a person did something that was considered a sin, he or she was required to confess the sin to a selected church authority (usually a priest).

<h3>How are indulgences connected to the concept of sin?</h3>

The Catholic Church leads that indulgences relieve only the temporal punishment resulting from the effect of sin (the effect of rejecting God the origin of good), and that a person is still required to have their serious sins absolved, ordinarily through the sacrament of Confession, to receive salvation.

<h3>What does Luther think about indulgence?</h3>

Committed to the idea that salvation could be reached through faith and by divine grace only, Luther energetically objected to the corrupt practice of marketing indulgences.

Once the creature has learned how to satisfy his basic needs, he learns language and then how to read.
dusya [7]

Answer:

The Monster learns to speak by spying on the DeLacey family. He lives for over a year in a “hovel,” a small shed attached to the DeLaceys’ cottage. Through a chink in the wall, the Monster can see and hear everything that happens inside the cottage. He learns to speak by listening to the DeLaceys. When Felix DeLacey’s fiancée Safie arrives, the Monster is able to learn more: Safie is Turkish, and the Monster overhears Felix teaching her French as well as the history and politics of Europe. The Monster learns to read when he finds three books abandoned on the ground: <u>Paradise Lost</u>, <u>Plutarch’s Lives</u> and <u>The Sorrows of Werter</u>. These books point to major themes of the novel. <u><em>Plutarch’s Lives</em></u> is about the “great men” of history, which reminds us that the <em>Monster exists because of Frankenstein’s ambition to be great</em>. The <u><em>Sorrows of Werter</em></u> is a novel about the <em>alienation of a young man</em>, which underlines <em>the alienation of both the Monster and Frankenstein</em>. <u><em>Paradise Lost</em></u>, by the English poet John Milton, is the most significant of the three books. It tells the <em>Biblical story of Adam and Eve</em>, focusing on <em>Satan’s ambition and alienation from God</em>. The Monster frequently compares himself to both Satan and Adam.

What does the creature learn from this book? How much of a monster can someone be who can say "but when I heard details of vice and bloodshed, my wonder ceased, and I turned away with disgust and loathing"?

The creature learns all about the history of civilization and all the wars man has waged on one another.

What happens when the creature begins to think about himself? How does he compare with the humans described in the book? What questions does he ask himself? How does his knowledge make him feel?

The creature realizes he is the only one in existence. Like himself he is monstrously ugly and he is utterly alone. He asks, "What am I?" and "Who am I?" He feels absolute misery.

What are the three books that the creature reads, and what does he learn from each of them?

Plutarch's "Lives", Goethe's "Sorrows of Werter", and Milton's "Paradise Lost". He learns of man's cruel history of war in "Lives", of man's melancholic nature in "Sorrows of Werter" and the noble thoughts of man in "Paradise Lost".
