Frankenstein

The author's definition of a human, is any being who is conceived, either by intercourse, or by artificial insemination, who has the same general appearance, thoughts, emotions, and genetic similarities as a normal human being. With the use of this definition, we find that while Frankenstein is indeed obviously human, the creature that is created can not fit into each of these categories. While the creature was not conceived, he does feel all of the …

…innocent, but that he hated it. We see the change again in the creature when after Frankenstein has died, the creature is truly remorseful that it has lost its "father." In conclusion, the creature is more human, as it exhibits better moral aspects than its creator. While the creature can not be considered as fully human, we know that its feelings and emotions were more powerful and evident than those of Victor Frankenstein. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Bibliography**
