Choose an event from Chapters 3-5 in Frankenstein that demonstrates the relationship Romantics have with the Supernatural.

1 answer:

8 0

In chapter 5 of Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein", Victor completes his project of giving live to a dead creature made of pieces of different corpses.This happens after months of study and obssession with unveiling the secret of life. Moreover, the creature comes to life during a stormy night.

This event signals the relationship the Romantics had with the supernatural. Traditional ideas of science and logical thought from the Enlightenment were vanishing as writers were engaging in new ways to thing and approach the world, and this was reflected in Victor's approach to new supernatural ideas that go beyond traditional scientific thought. The coming to life of the monster is clearly an embodiment of the supernatural, as is the fact that he comes to life with thunder and lightning (another supernatural phenomena used by romantics along with fog, fire or spirits).

Answer:

1. The old couch springs moaned as the rather large man sat down on it.

Personification. It personifies the 'couch' as a human, 'moaning' when the large man sat on it.

2. The hot sauce burned like fire when I bit into the taco.

Simile. Compares the hot sauce to a fire using 'like'.

3. I am so tired, yet I still have a million things to do before bed.

Hyperbole. Uses an exaggerated expression to describe the things to be done.

4. You can't find your book because your room is a pigpen. Please clean it.

Metaphor. Comparison between the speaker's room to a pig pen without using the words "like" or "as".

5. The piece of chocolate cake taunted me each time I went to the kitchen.

Personification. Personifies the cake to a human, 'taunting' the speaker.

6. The neglected little kitten was as light as a feather from having no food.

Simile. A comparison made between the kitten and a feather using the word "as".

Explanation:

Similes and metaphors are two ways comparisons are made. The only difference is that similes use "like" and "as" to compare while metaphors do not use the two comparison words.

Hyperbole is when the description is given using too much emphasis, way beyond what it really is. The description is done with exaggeration.

Personification is when non-living ideas or things are given human attributes, characteristics, etc.
