Some interpretations of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein suggest that the story is an allegory that serves as a warning that it is da

ngerous for man to try and assume the power of creating life.
Which excerpt from the text most effectively develops this allegory?


A) “…I was oppressed by a slow fever, and I became nervous to a most painful degree; the fall of a leaf startled me, and I shunned my fellow creatures as if I had been guilty of a crime.”


B) “…the information I had obtained was of a nature rather to direct my endeavours so soon as I should point them towards the object of my search than to exhibit that object already accomplished.”


C) “Sometimes, on the very brink of certainty, I failed; yet still I clung to the hope which the next day or the next hour might realize.”


D) “A new species would bless me as its creator and source; many happy and excellent natures would owe their being to me.”

Answer:

D) “A new species would bless me as its creator and source; many happy and excellent natures would owe their being to me.”

Explanation:

In these lines, we learn about the thoughts that Frankenstein had about his creature and his creation. We learn that Frankenstein was obsessed with the ability to create life, something that had never been possible for humans before. He tells us that the new species he created would bless him as a creator, and that many creatures would owe their existence to him. This relates to the potential danger of man trying to create life.
