📱 eBook en inglés FRANKENSTEIN (SUMMARIZED EDITION)

Frankenstein unfolds through an epistolary architecture - Waltons Arctic letters enclosing Victors confession and the Creatures eloquent rejoinder - so that competing testimonies test the ethics of creation, responsibility, and exile. Shelley marries Gothic dread to Romantic introspection, setting sublime landscapes against fevered laboratories. Precise yet lyrical, her prose engages contemporary galvanism and Miltonic echoes; the shifting roles of victim and villain unsettle moral certainty. Composed in 1818, it registers anxieties about industrial modernity and lays groundwork for science fiction and bioethics. Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley - daughter of William Godwin and Mary Wollstonecraft and partner to Percy Bysshe Shelley - conceived the tale in 1816 at Villa Diodati amid debates on electricity, vitalism, and poetic invention. Personal bereavements and her radical inheritance focused her on nurture, social exclusion, and the ethics of making. The later 1831 revision adds a darker fatalism, yet the youthful intellectual audacity and humane skepticism that sparked the original remain legible throughout. Readers of Gothic fiction, philosophy of science, and ethics will find a bracing, lucid inquiry into the obligations of creators. Read it for its ingenious structure, its unsettling compassion, and its prescience about technological ambition and the fragile communities it imperils.
