About this product

Product Information

Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus, generally kwn as Frankenstein, is a vel written by the British author Mary Shelley. The title of the vel refers to a scientist, Victor Frankenstein, who learns how to create life and creates a being in the likeness of man, but larger than average and more powerful. In popular culture, people have tended to refer to the Creature as Frankenstein, despite this being the name of the scientist. Frankenstein is a vel infused with some elements of the Gothic vel and the Romantic movement. It was also a warning against the over-reaching of modern man and the Industrial Revolution, alluded to in the vel's subtitle, The Modern Prometheus. The story has had an influence across literature and popular culture and spawned a complete genre of horror stories and films. It is arguably considered the first fully realized science fiction vel. Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley (30 August 1797 - 1 February 1851) was an English romantic/gothic velist and the author of Frankenstein, or The Modern Prometheus. She was married to the Romantic poet Percy Bysshe Shelley.
