Answer:
The first edition of "Frankenstein" was published on 1st January, 1818.
Explanation:
Mary Shelly's famous gothic novel "Frankenstein" or "The Modern Prometheus" was first published on January 1, 1818 without an author. this anonymous publication was due to the fact that women writers were not openly accepted in those times.
This novel tells the story of a young scientist, Victor Frankenstein's creation of a monstrous being in a rather unethical manner. Though he may be unusual, he wasn't a monster initially. When he was rejected by his own creator, Victor, he started becoming more like a monster. He despised himself and hated everyone who rejected him, also people began to be repulsed by his appearance too.
Narrated from Victor's point of view, the story moved from when the created being became the master who had control over the other humans. He was responsible for the death of William, Victor's younger brother and also that of a young girl named Justine who had been accused of being William's killer. The monster approached Victor during his vacation in the mountains, admitting his actions of killing William. But he also said he has reasons and asked him to create a female for him so that he will not be alone. Everyone got their partners to be with but he is a lonely monster, shunned by everyone and with no companion, even rejected by his own creator.
Victor was eventually convinced and he started working on the new creation. But, afraid of what the monster might really do if he has a companion, Victor destroys the unfinished project. Angered by this, the monster vowed to make Victor's life hell, promising to hurt him on his wedding night. Victor was then arrested and accused for the death of his friend Henry, which of course, was the work of the monster. Some years later, he married Elizabeth. Remembering the monster's promise, he decided to send his new wife to another room, thinking the monster will come for him. But, it was his wife who would be killed instead. So, Victor vowed to hunt the monster down and made it his life mission.
Answer:
B. It is told in a serious manner using elevated language.
Explanation:
Considered to be the earliest surviving great work of literature,<em> The Epic of Gilgamesh</em> is an epic poem from ancient Mesopotamia, written around 1800 BC. The protagonist is Gilgamesh, the historical king of the Sumerian city-state of Uruk.
An epic poem is a lengthy narrative poem that celebrates the accomplishments of a legendary or traditional hero, who represents a culture's heroic ideal. The setting of an epic is large, sometimes worldwide or even larger (for example, the plot of <em>Paradise Lost</em> takes place on earth, heaven, and hell). Superhuman elements are common, and gods and other supernatural beings take interest or participate in the adventures of the hero. Epic poems are always written in elevated style. <em>The Epic of Gilgamesh</em> fits all the characteristics of this literary genre.
Based on this, we can see that statement B is the correct one. Statements C and D are not characteristics of epics. Epics do not have to originate in ancient civilizations. For example, <em>Paradise Lost</em> is an epic written in the 17th century by English poet John Milton.
