Frankenstein
27.09.2025 · AE550927
The first modern myth of artificial life — creation without divine sanction.
Victor Frankenstein as Promethean scientist: knowledge becomes transgression.
The Creature — intelligent, emotional, rejected.
From Enlightenment optimism to Romantic horror: science stripped of empathy.
Anticipates modern bioethics and AI dilemmas — the maker fears his own creation.
Hoffmann’s automaton, Shelley’s monster and Freud’s "uncanny" form one lineage: the SELF estranged by what it builds.

Feminist perspective
10.11.2025 · AE551110
A creation myth rewritten by a woman.
Victor’s experiment replaces the womb — science as patriarchal fantasy of self-generation.
Creation becomes male and mechanical.
Every woman in the novel is erased: dead, voiceless, or destroyed before she can speak.
The unmade female creature embodies the fear of autonomous womanhood.
Shelley exposes the violence behind masculine creativity — life produced by denial of the feminine.
