ESSAY ON: Frankenstein's Monster and Marx

Number of Pages 3

This research paper: A 3 page essay that contrasts the social position of Mary Shelley and Karl Marx. The writer argues that both writers looked at the rapidly evolving industrialization of Europe with a critical eye, Shelley through fiction and Marx through his political writing, such as the Communist Manifesto. This examination of Marx's political perspective on morality demonstrates parallel points of view with Shelley's conception of the oppression that shaped the formerly innocent being known as the Monster into a rampaging murderer. In both cases, behavior is related to the mechanisms of society and the manner in which the bourgeoisie was failing during this era to live up to its obligations in a moral manner. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
