I’m intrigued by the moral judgment here–as Prof Sample talked about in class today, words like “decency” and “responsibility” have a lot of weight to them.
I agree with your assessment, for what its’ worth! My question is this–what do you think Shelley is trying to communicate through this depiction of an “inhuman” protagonist? Is she commenting on science? On exploration? On religion?
Or is that reading into the text too much?
