Answer:

   Atticus was brought up to be racist. He was surrounded by racism from an early age and was taught that black people are somehow inferior to white people. Despite this, he "goes against his raising" by treating African Americans the same as he treats white people; with respect and dignity. This is uncommon for Maycomb, a small town in the South where racism runs rampant. Mrs. Dubose disapproves of Atticus's decision to defend Tom Robinson, claiming he is going against his upbringing.

Read the excerpt from Chapter 18 in Frankenstein.
baherus [9]

Answer:

Moral Pressure and Repentance

Explanation:

In this chapter, Victor is hugely burdened with moral pressure and a sense of repentance. His meeting with Elizabeth is 'horror' and 'dismay' since it is conditional due to the fact that he gave word to his Creation to create a female to enjoy 'happiness'. That Victor fails or rather intends to fail another such creation he is in two minds whether to fulfill the promise he vowed to the Creation or not to do it since the devastation and ruin they may unleash. Hence, his conscience carries a huge weight. He promises again to perform another experiment to create a mate for the Creation so that he could enjoy life with Elizabeth.

The tone is of a unprecedented struggle with self with which Victor fights, a sense of doubt, a lasting terror and regret and repentance though he is filled with 'lonely and maddening reflection' and 'feeling haunted'. The creation that Victor began with so much delight has become a monstrous reality with no solution for its end. Victor goes on to create a mate though with a feeling ' intermixed with obscure forebodings of evil that made my heart sicken in my bosom'.
