Justine Why does she confess?

Victor’s state of mind Extreme guilt – He thinks his creation is responsible for the death of two family members Suicidal Depressed – Months of sickness No social life, ignores his family back in Geneva His mental state leads to his physical ailments Loss – His mother William Justine

The power of nature Nature is often portrayed as omnipresent and capable of altering human perception and perspective. Just as nature can make him joyful, however, so can it remind him of his guilt, shame, and regret: “The rain depressed me; my old feelings recurred, and I was miserable.” sparknotes.com

Prometheus What does he say? How important are his style and word choice? Where do Victor and the creature go?

Victor and the monster Both connected to nature Victor – emotionally Monster – physically at home in nature concealing aspect no fear reactions but oddly unnatural in its appearance

The transformation of the creature BEFORE Large Strong Wild Mysterious Ugly NOW Large Strong Intellectual Sensitive Even more scary

Abandonment issues The monster clearly understands his existence and abandonment by his creator, and he wants revenge. The creature takes on more human characteristics and becomes more like Victor.
