Mary Shelley's 'Frankenstein': Feminism And Patriarchy
[ send me this paper ]
18 pages in length. Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is a celebration of gender, with particular emphasis upon issues of feminism and patriarchal control. Indeed, Shelley portrays the early birth of feminism; not only are her writings a solid reflection of her sentiments but so is the manner in which she reflects the female reawakening. Shelley displays her craft well and does not hesitate to apply her talent as more of a social statement than one of mere entertainment. The writer discusses the author's primary argument: that the female gender -- no matter how seemingly fragile and delicate -- was indeed just as much an emotionally strong and self-reliant individual as her socially-accepted male counterpart. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
