ESSAY ON: Frankenstein/ Levels of Fear

Number of Pages 5

This research paper: A 5 page research paper/essay that investigates the levels of fear in Mary Shelley's classic novel. However, the writer argues that fear in the novel is distinctly different from the way the story is portrayed in film. By the time that Shelley portrays the monster committing violence, the reader has learned to sympathize with the travails of this miserable creature. The violence is horrifying, but mitigated by the sympathy that the reader feels for the rejected and socially ostracized creation of Victor Frankenstein. In the novel, unlike the films, levels of fear escalate in sympathy for the monster, rather then on fear or horror of the monster. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
