Biography: Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley was born in 1797 in London. Her mother died 10 days after giving birth to her She is considered to be one of the first feminists stating that woman should not lower themselves to please their husbands or lovers Her father William Godwin was a writer and political journalist who had a revolutionary attitude towards social institutions.

Young Adulthood She met her future husband Percy Bysshe Shelley (who was a married man) when she was 16 After her father forbade her to see him, they both ran away to France in 1814 In 1815, Mary Shelley gave birth to her daughter Clara who died a few weeks later, year later she gave birth to her first son, William Finally in December 30, 1816 Percy and Shelley married. They both wrote about their experiences around Europe in History of Six Weeks Tour

Her husband expressed throughout his poems the longing for an open marriage, this was around the time Shelley had started writing Frankenstein She had 2 more children in which one died and her firstborn child died. In1822 she suffered a miscarriage which threatened her life, the same year her husband was killed in a boating accident in Italy

The Final Years Shelley took it upon her responsibility to compile the poetry and writing of her late husband She returned to England with her son Percy where she wrote Valperga and her second most popular novel The Last Man In 1851 she died at home at the age of 51

There are many explanations as to why Mary Shelley wrote or came up with the idea of Frankenstein – While staying with half sister Claire, husband Percy at Lord Byron’s the challenge among the guests was to come up with the scariest story, it is thought that Dr. Frankenstein’s monster presented itself in a dream she had. connection between Shelley’s personal life and Frankenstein Mary Shelley began to write the novel while she was on her 3 rd pregnancy, it is rumored that the fear of her child dying or born deformed transmitted itself to the creature in Frankenstein.
