Synopsis

This is my Senior Thesis on Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and why the creature turned out the way he did. Through abandonment, rejection, and alienation, the creature turned into the monster that people treated him as. When Victor Frankenstein creates a human (his child) and abandons it, the creature just wants Frankenstein's love; however, Victor refuses that gesture. The creature then tries anything to get Victor to love him, showing how the creature is a lost child whose parent abandoned him, and how he hurts others so that his father can love him.
