Read the original Frankenstein in parts and see what history and the imagination have made of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley’s complex creation.
Life, death, and science; imagination, art, and personal tragedy—this seminar explores the remarkable source of a worldwide cultural legacy by turning to Shelley’s Frankenstein for weekly progressive readings. Each week’s focused reading and discussion will be supplemented by film clips and excerpts from other literary works.
