Comparing the Act of Creation in Grendel and Frankenstein

Creative methods of Glendell and Frankenstein were born. By inventing the story of heroes and monsters, we continue to shape the world around us by creating the ideal of complexity but passionate good and evil. Some people are pleased that this reality operation is prolonged, others are more innocent than others simply to succumb to the general desire to believe in things. In John Gardner's Glendell and Mary Sherry's Frankenstein, creation is a central theme.

In Mary Shelly's Frankenstein, Victor Frankenstein and his work are symbolically comparable to the characteristics of Adam and Satan, the god of John Milton's epic "Paradise Lost". In Frankenstein, JVC is the person who wants to be the first person to live. JVC succeeded in his creation, but he was a self - adulter who discovered the truth of morality himself and gained more knowledge as it was in the paradise where God was lost. Victor's work, the monster symbolizes both Adam and Satan in Milton's epic. Monsters created by Victor are not created to intentionally hurt others, but are created with human images. But this monster eventually was overwhelmed by his emotions and he was forced to commit violent acts. The monster of Victor is also a symbol of Satan. Initially, Satan was created by God, righteous and faithful to serve, but Satan also lost God's grace.

Mary Shelley 's Frankenstein raised the wrong idea that the creation of Victor is a monster, but it was not so. The true monster of this novel is actually Dr. Victor Frankenstein himself. Victor is a hostile and selfish person who refuses to create him and leads to the death of him and his family. The only aim of Victor to create his creations was to gain a reputation When he realized that his creation is the only one that brings him to him, he I turned my back on creatures. Shocking fear will be seen as vulgar. "(Sherry 127)
