Prompt: How does the origin myth, the excerpt from Frankenstein, and Shaw's play deal with the power and importance of creation,
the need or desire or obsession to create, as well as the results of this process, the thing that is created, and what it means or can mean to its creator, or to mankind at large?
In Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, characters must reckon with the conflict between personal glory and human connection. Through the story of an alienated monster and his ambitious creator, Shelley raises themes such as familial loss, the search for belonging, and the cost of ambition. Other characters serve to reinforce the importance of community.
