Its two central characters, the scientist Victor Frankenstein and the being he creates, have gained mythic status in their own right. Engaging with the novel's characterization is crucial to gaining a real understanding of its themes and contexts, including education, gender difference, imperialism, personal identity, revolutionary politics, and science. This study includes: an introductory overview of the novel, including a brief account of its historical and literary contexts; its reception history; discussion of the major themes and narrative structure; detailed analysis of, the representation of main characters, such as Walton, Frankenstein, and the creature; and a conclusion reminding students of the links between the characters and the key themes and issues. 410 0$aContinuum character studies. 606 $aFrankenstein, Victor (Fictitious character) 606 $2Literary studies: general 606 $aHorror tales, English$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aFrankenstein, Victor (Fictitious character) 615 0$aHorror tales, English$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a823.7 700 $aHiggins$b David Minden$f1974-$01470385 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786833003321 996 $aFrankenstein$93682166 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01222nam0 22002891i 450 001 UON00386043 005 20231205104550.753 010 $a978-88-343-1724-2 100 $a20101119d2010 |0itac50 ba 101 $aita 102 $aIT 105 $a|||| ||||| 200 1 $aˆIl ‰Giappone e il nuovo ordine in Asia orientale$el'altra faccia dell'ascesa della Cina$fNoemi Lanna 210 $a Milano$cV&P$d2010 215 $a140 p.$d22 cm. 410 1$1001UON00256400$12001 $aRelazioni internazionali e scienza politica$fCollana dell'Alta Scuola di Economia e Relazioni Internazionali$v36 606 $aGIAPPONE$xRELAZIONI ESTERE$xASIA$3UONC057053$2FI 620 $aIT$dMilano$3UONL000005 686 $aGIA V$cGIAPPONE - POLITOLOGIA$2A 700 1$aLANNA$bNoemi$3UONV152532$0704617 712 $aVita e Pensiero$3UONV247269$4650 801 $aIT$bSOL$c20240220$gRICA 899 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$2UONSI 912 $aUON00386043 950 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$dSI GIA V 084 N $eSI SA 128291 5 084 N 996 $aGiappone e il nuovo ordine in Asia orientale$91353405 997 $aUNIOR
