The story of Baba Abdalla is a classic Arabic folktale that appears in the collection of the One Thousand and One Nights. It tells the story of a man who was so consumed by avarice it led him to his downfall.

In the story, Baba Abdalla ends up being a beggar, after all his struggle and the loss of his wealth. He then asks everyone who gives him money to also give him a blow to the head. The reason, he argues, is that he wants to expiate the sin of avarice, that has caused him so much suffering.

nordsb [41]

The correct answer is "the desire of wise men".

In her play "Frankenstein" (1823), Mary Shelley uses different syntactic strategies in order to put emphasis on certain information. For example, she could have written something like this: "within my grasp is the study and desire of the wisest men...".

Instead, she chose to present the information in a rhetorical way. She introduced the "wh" word "what" opening the window for the reader to question himself what is the meaning of "what"?

What is THAT THING that had been the study and desire of wisest men since the creation of the world? What did they want to know?
