The Modern Prometheus and his Comically Long Shovel

hi guys it’s me elaine and my eyes are burning so bad im so sleepy

[frankengrlz]

it's immediately clear that both the creature and victor find some of their greatest comforts in nature and that's one of the key features that connects them and proves they're not so different from each other, but i've also noticed that they tend to admire different TYPES of nature

victor tends to amaze at "the high and snowy mountains [...] immense glaciers [...] the rumbling thunder of the falling avalanche [...] the supreme and magnificent mont blonc" (65), typically finding the most comfort in the "savage and enduring scenes" (64) which tend to be colder and rougher yet unchanging; while the creature found that his "chief delights were the sight of the flowers, the birds, and all the gay apparel of summer" (94). there is probably something to be said about the creature's affinity for spring and summer, the seasons of rebirth, of NATURAL and beautiful life, a direct contrast to his unnatural, coldly scientific, "wretched" rebirth that he abhors so much

i was discussing this idea with a friend, who added that victor finding solace in the frozen and dead beauty of wintery environments, a typically less-favoured season, could reflect how victor often refuses himself the typical joys of life. throughout the novel, he struggles with his self-worth because of the guilt induced by his creation of the creature and the deaths that then followed, and the only reason he even desires peace and comfort is because he knows he needs to present himself that way to his family in order for them to be happy ("i [...] wished that peace would revisit my mind only that i might afford them consolation and happiness" [62]). i built on her idea by noting how the creature acknowledged that he "required kindness and sympathy; but [he] did not believe [him]self unworthy of it" (94), a completely contrasting stance from victor, who finds himself undeserving of the many comforts offered to him by his family

furthermore, it seems that victor finds beauty in glory & majesty ("[the scenery] spoke of a power mighty as Omnipotence--and i ceased to fear, or to bend before any being less almighty than that which had created and ruled the elements" [64]), while the creature finds beauty in warmth & growth. both characters seem to find what they desire(d) in the versions of the natural world that they admire most

to reference what i said in the beginning about the connections between victor and the creature, this observation only contributes to my understanding that victor and the creature are incredibly similar, and many of their identical traits involve a rejection or a reversal of the other; they both ardently wish for each other's destruction, they both ruined each other, they're the reason that the other is simultaneously a victim and a villain in their own sense, they both hate themselves but for reversed reasons (victor hates himself for what he's done rather than what he is, while the creature hates himself for what he is more than what he's done), and now this--they both find solace in nature, just opposing kinds. like father, like son

Ahoj čumblre a tumblre a všichni,

Tak napůl jsem registrovala, že tu asi byl populární Frankenstein, ale vlastně jsem se mezi takovou komunitu vůbec nedostala tak vlastně vůbec nevím, aaa

Nevadí, k věci.

Existuje skupinka lidí (nadšenců a amatérů), která dala dohromady český překlad pro Frankenstein a new musical. Celý je to plný krasný češtinky. Tyhle lidi to NEJEN celý preložili, taky to celý dotáhli, nacvičili koupili licenci a teď to JDE DO DIVADLA!

Jestli vás tohle zaujalo, koukněte na instagram @muzikal_frankenstein, nebo na stránky muzikál-Frankenstein.cz. Lístky se daj koupit na stránkách go out, stačí na nich vyhledat muzikál Frankenstein a najde se vám to. Bude se hrát v Divadle na prádle 4.,5.,11. a 12. dubna.

Taky doporučuju kouknout na donio muzikálu Frankenstein, jsou tam fantastický odměny za příspěvky, jako dopis od nějaké z postav. (A samosebou se jim ty peníze budou hodit na rekvizity, kostýmy a tak všechno)

Pozvěte všechny svoje kamarády a potkejte se tam s mutuálama. Bude to pecka :ddd

Sorry for not doing a ton of art lately… been fighting off the wonderful feelings of not liking my art. Luckily some Frankenstein was quick to fix the issue >:3

Autism be damned he can hear his name blackened by his crime haunting him and taunting as it echoes through all time
