Monsters and Humans ThemeTracker

The most striking thing about Glendell is that this novel is spoken by monsters. Gardner took the oldest story in English literature, the hero broke Beowulf and saw the story through the eyes of Monster Glendell. Therefore, novels always ask about the meaning of monsters and the differences and correlations between monsters and humans. When Glendell and Man first met, they realized that they were all different creatures, but the two were actually alike. It is worth noting that they speak the same language. Shaper uses the Cain and Abel Biblical story to mark Grendel as a descendant of evil Cain. This refers to a distant common ancestor of humans and Glendell. Though Grendel unexpectedly devastated his bloody desire, human beings also killed each other as Grundel believed, without real purpose. In many places of the novel, the distinction between monsters and humans looks ambiguous. Because Grendel is more human than Danish people, because Danish people are awful than Glendale.

However, although it seems that Grendel and humans are very similar, it is important to emphasize the difference between them. Both Grendel and Danish people use each other as "others" to better define themselves, as the dragon expresses most clearly. The dragon said to Glendel that he "learned that the Danish people define their own barbarians." In contrast, the Danish people became civilized using the image of the Glendell monster, became glorious and human. After meeting with the dragon, Grendel also noticed that it is the same for him: his identity as a terrible monster relied on raids and intimidation by human adversaries. Glendell did not kill all the Danish people, it did not completely destroy the town. Relationships can be seen as interdependencies - after all, they may not be very different, but both rely on different things to contrast with their own identity

The essence of relationship with humans is very important. Because monsters are made by many human organs, he is closer to humans than animals and monsters. That's why when a monster meets Franconstein, his creator, he asks for partners, people who share love with others and build close relationships with others. Victor began making partners, but critically thought of the actions of the monsters, retreated his work and even destroyed creation. This made the monster who swore to retaliate for his creator in turn. He did this by killing all relatives owned by Frankenstein.

Mary Sherry is intentionally referring to the difference between humans and monsters in her novel "Frankenstein". Mary Shirley creates monsters by combining them using parts of the body to create a "monster" that calls the rest of the novel. This is a monster but he speaks a fluent language and tells you how he lives in a world that he describes as a very cruel world. The Frankenstein monster seems to be very suitable for others, especially Victor Frankenstein. Frankenstein's monster said, "If you obey my requirements, I will calm them with you; but if you refuse, I will eat the belly of death until the blood of the rest of your friends is filled "(83)) This creature tells Frankenstein that if he is not happy he will make Frankenstein miserable. Crazy about new technology

The expectation of modern monsters is that they must be strong, ugly, dead, bloodshed, evil, and huge. However, "Frankenstein" monsters are different from these expectations. Monsters in the story can feel human emotions because it can be kind and help people. I want to accept, love and associate. The main plot of "Frankenstein" is that Victor Frankenstein created the body, parts of the body, and dead body, then he gave up.
