Mary Shelley (Cont.) While living in Geneva, the group engaged in a competition as to who could write the best ghost story. This competition led to the creation of Frankenstein. The book was published anonymously in Reviews were mixed.

Mary Shelley (Conclusion) Frankenstein was not the only book she wrote Valperga The Last Man Lodore Ultimately, she wrote six novels Shelley’s life was filled with tragedy She died in 1851

Multiple Narrative Series of secret manuscripts or multiple tales Narrative spirals inward to hidden truth Narrator compelled to speak to captive listener More Recent Example: “Found Footage” Movies

Framed Narrative Framed narratives change the point-of-view for the reader, offering multiple perspectives to one text. A story told within a story, told within a story, etc. A narrative is “framed” by another narrative A frame can give a narrative a sense of completion

Closure Create a list of the older Victor Frankenstein’s physical and psychological characteristics. Based on what you’ve read, what do you think might have happened to bring him to this point?
