Creature. Please refer to attached document to see what needs to be considered in essay.

-In 3-4 pages consider the following: 1.
In 3-4 pages, you will need to consider the following:
· What is the
significance of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley’s title Frankenstein or The Modern Prometheus? How can Frankenstein be
likened to a Byronic hero? In other words, what is his quest? To what extent
does Frankenstein fulfill his quest?
· Mary Shelley
Wollstonecraft includes this epigraph from Paradise
Lost beneath the title: “Did I request thee, Maker, from my clay / To mould
me
man? Did I
solicit thee / From darkness to promote me?” What do these lines mean? In other
words, what sort of analogy can be drawn here between Adam and God in
comparison to the Creature and Frankenstein in this context? How does the
Creature identify himself with Adam in terms of his request? How does
Frankenstein identify himself with the “Maker”?
· After
Frankenstein’s death, the Creature admits: “But I was the slave, not the master
of an impulse, which I detested, yet could not disobey” (Shelley, Norton, 1032). How would you
characterize his “impulse”? Do you agree or disagree that the Creature was a
“slave” to the “impulse” that he “detested” and “could not disobey”? Why? Or
why not? Conclusions?
