Frankenstein is a novel written by British author Mary Shelley about eccentric scientist Victor Frankenstein, who creates a grotesque creature in an unorthodox scientific experiment. Frankenstein is infused with some elements of the Gothic novel and the Romantic movement and is also considered to be one of the earliest examples of science fiction. Brian Aldiss has argued that it should be considered the first true science fiction story, because unlike in previous stories with fantastical elements resembling those of later science fiction, the central character "makes a deliberate decision" and "turns to modern experiments in the laboratory" to achieve fantastic results. It has had a considerable influence across literature and popular culture and spawned a complete genre of horror stories, films, and plays. Since publication of the novel, the name "Frankenstein" is often used to refer to the monster itself. This usage is sometimes considered erroneous, but usage commentators regard the monster sense of "Frankenstein" as well-established and an acceptable usage. In the novel, the monster is identified via words such as "creature", "monster", "fiend", "wretch", "vile insect", "daemon", "being", and "it". Speaking to Victor Frankenstein, the monster refers to himself as "the Adam of your labors", and elsewhere as someone who "would have" been "your Adam", but is instead "your fallen angel." [mehr]

Jugend-Dark-Fantasy-Roman von A. F. Morland Der Umfang dieses Buchs entspricht 118 Taschenbuchseiten. Mein neuer Freund ist ein Monster, dachte Oliver. Ach, du lieber Himmel. Geht es noch verrückter? Wohl kaum. Er wusste nicht, wie er damit umgehen sollte. Damit ihm seine Eltern nicht ansahen, dass ihn etwas über alle Maßen beschäftigte – und ihn mit neugierigen Fragen bombardierten -, hatte er sich kurz nach dem Abendessen auf sein Zimmer verdrückt, und nun lag er im Bett, lag auf dem Rücken, hatte die Hände unter den Kopf geschoben, starrte im Dunkeln zur Decke und wälzte sein zurzeit größtes Problem, über das er mit niemandem reden konnte.

Mary Wollstonecraft (/ˈwʊlstən.krɑːft/; 27 April 1759 – 10 September 1797) was an English writer, philosopher, and advocate of women's rights. During her brief career, she wrote novels, treatises, a travel narrative, a history of the French Revolution, a conduct book, and a children's book. Wollstonecraft is best known for A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792), in which she argues that women are not naturally inferior to men, but appear to be only because they lack education. She suggests that both men and women should be treated as rational beings and imagines a social order founded on reason. [mehr]

Genf, um 1800: Victor und Konrad Frankenstein lieben einander so innig, wie es nur Zwillinge vermögen. Allein die schöne Elizabeth steht zwischen ihnen. Dann erkrankt Konrad plötzlich an einem lebensgefährlichen Fieber. Die Ärzte stehen vor einem Rätsel. Victor, rasend vor Verzweiflung, ist bereit, alles für seinen Bruder zu tun. Im Chateau Frankenstein stößt er auf eine geheime Bibliothek, in der ein Buch das »Elixier des Lebens« verspricht. Dessen Zutaten scheinen der Phantasiewelt eines kranken Geistes zu entstammen. Oder doch nicht? Zusammen mit Elizabeth macht sich Victor auf die Suche. Unvorstellbare Prüfungen erwarten die beiden – aber auch unerwartete Versuchungen. Was wird stärker sein: Bruderliebe oder Leidenschaft? Das größte Opfer seines bisherigen Lebens steht Victor bevor ... Wie wurde Victor Frankenstein zu dem, den wir kennen? In seinem originellen Prequel zu Mary Shelleys Frankenstein gibt Kenneth Oppel eine schaurig-romantische Antwort. [mehr]

To Mrs. Saville, England St. Petersburgh, Dec. 11Th, 17-- You Will Rejoice To Hear That No Disaster Has Accompanied the Commencement Of An Enterprise Which You Have Regarded with Such Evil Forebodings. I Arrived here Yesterday, And My First Task Is To Assure My Dear Sister Of My Welfare And Increasing confidence In the Success Of My Undertaking. I Am Already Far North Of London, And As I Walk In the Streets Of Petersburgh, I Feel A Cold Northern Breeze Play Upon My Cheeks, Which Braces My Nerves And Fills Me With Delight. Do You Understand This Feeling? This Breeze, Which Has Travelled from The Regions Towards Which I Am Advancing, Gives Me A Foretaste Of Those Icy Climes. Inspirited by This Wind Of Promise, My Daydreams Become More Fervent And Vivid. I Try In vain To Be Persuaded that The Pole Is The Seat Of Frost And Desolation; It Ever Presents Itself To My Imagination As The Region Of Beauty And Delight. There, Margaret, The Sun Is Forever Visible, Its Broad Disk Just Skirting the Horizon And Diffusing a Perpetual Splendour. There--For With Your Leave, My Sister, I Will Put Some Trust In preceding navigators--There Snow And Frost Are Banished; And, Sailing over A Calm Sea, We May Be Wafted to A Land Surpassing in Wonders And In beauty Every Region Hitherto Discovered on The Habitable Globe.
