Notes:

 Clerval sacrificed his own dreams for Victor – ‘whole winter, instead of being spent in study’,
Clerval and Victor are opposites because Victor wouldn’t give up his dreams for anyone
 ‘object’ – Victor dehumanizes the creature
 ‘deserving of my love’ – very two-faced
 Theme of Dreams, Creation, Male Hubris, Abuse of Power
 Chapter VI – Introduction of the Theme of Social Justice
 ‘my own Elizabeth’ – so possessive and controlling
 Female perspective of Elizabeth (unreliable narrator)
 Elizabeth is incredible motherly, thoughtful, articulate, kind and compassionate, this
juxtaposes Victor who is immoral, unkind and selfish.
 ‘one word’ – so very desperate to be close to Victor
 Domestic Sphere, means that she cannot leave to visit Victor because it is not her place –
‘not being able to perform it herself’
 ‘our Ernest’ ‘our dear children’ – very motherly, has taken on Caroline’s role. Ernest wants to
join the army, a second son who wants to leave the family – emphasises the fact that
Victor’s isolation is really cruel on the family
 Shelley is showing that there always needs to be balance, in the family and in life unlike
Victor who is completely unbalanced
 ‘immutable laws’ – power of nature
 Justine – justice: like the story of Cinderella, very different to Victor’s only family, entered
into the family as a servant – a comment on social standing and looks, unlike Elizabeth who
was ‘a daughter of a Milanese nobleman’ and was beautiful, Justine isn’t a regular servant
but wasn’t fully part of the family, Justine is educated by Caroline
 ‘grateful little creature…adored her protectors…endeavoured to imitate her phraseology and
manners’ – also becoming like Caroline, competition for Elizabeth, ‘continually remind me of
my own aunt’ – extreme women and extreme men (masculine).
 Context: Shelley moved for two years because her step-mother was mean to her
 Theme of Social Justice, Kindness and Compassion
 ‘darling William’ – everyone loves William
 Mentions marriage of others to nudge Victor into marrying her
