After murdering William Frankenstein, the creature encountered Justine. This is considered enough proof to accuse and convict Justine, and she is unfortunately condemned to death. Justine's death plays an important role in the narrative, however.
The unfortunate Justine becomes yet another casualty in the creature's fatal war against Victor, his creator. In many ways, his use of manipulation suggests that the creature has become irreversibly corrupted by his exposure to humankind.
Justine remains an interesting character because she serves, almost entirely, as a mechanism of forwarding the creature's narrative. Through his encounter with Justine, readers are offered a wider glimpse of the creature's personal experience as he rejects the human race and vows revenge against his negligent creator.
Clearly, the creature becomes determined to wreak as much havoc in Victor's life by causing tragic death, both directly, as in William's case, and indirectly, as demonstrated by his actions towards the unsuspecting Justine. Of all the members of the prestigious Frankenstein clan, Ernest Frankenstein plays the smallest role. He is barely mentioned. He is Victor's younger brother by six years and struggled with his health in his youth.
It can be assumed, then, that Ernest becomes the last surviving member of the Frankenstein family. Because of this, in addition to being the sole survivor, Ernest arguably serves as a redeeming character for the doomed Frankenstein family.
The grisly murder of the young William Frankenstein is a turning point in the creature's unfortunate existence. William becomes his first intentional victim towards his mission of revenge against the clueless Victor. William is killed by the creature when he reveals his true identity. Let me go; My papa is a Syndic- he is M. It is first how Victor learns about electricity and gains an interest in natural sciences.
Then, it is assumed that he uses electricity to "jumpstart" his creation's life. Not only does Victor know that the monster is responsible for the death of his brother psychic communication , but the monster was able to find Victor's family via psychic communication. Psychic communication is a Gothic novel quality. It is at this point that Victor realizes that creation is responsible for the murder of his brother.
He cannot reveal the source of the crime without some serious inquiry about his creation of the being. Thus, Victor is on the horns of a great dilemma.
The family must put their faith in the criminal justice system to exonerate the accused. When Victor repeats his assertion of Justine's innocence, her father remarks, "She is to be tried today, and I hope, I sincerely hope, that she will be acquitted. Perhaps Shelley is making a subtle point about the criminal justice system in England during her time. Sur—if the monster hadn't killed William, Justine wouldn't have been executed. But, if Victor hadn't created the monster, the monster wouldn't have killed William.
Once you start down that path, you raise all sorts of questions of blame and morality and responsibility. Which is kind of the point of thinking about Frankenstein at all. Justine is a servant in the Frankenstein house, but it's cool: being a servant in Geneva, unlike in England or France, " does not include the idea of ignorance and a sacrifice of the dignity of a human being " 6.
Anyway, servant or not, Justine seems like a nice girl. She's "frank-hearted and happy"; she repays the Frankenstein family's kindness by being "the most grateful little creature in the world"; and, of course, she's "very clever and gentle, and extremely pretty" 6. And then she's accused of murdering William Frankenstein. Yeah: it makes no sense to anyone, but she's discovered with a picture he had the monster planted it on her , so it doesn't look good for her.
The first painful event that Victor endures is losing his mother to scarlet fever after she tends to his younger sister Elizabeth. These ambitions are best if avoided because you can really hurt yourself or harm others. For example, Macbeth was a loyal soldier to his king Duncan but he later turned on him and killed him in his sleep so he could become king.
He committed these acts because of the prophecies he was told by from three witches. He was also trying to please his wife who lead him into thinking murdering the king would greatly benefit them. It just happen to be that his plan did not work and the lovers took suicidal action on their own will. Yes, the Friar seems to be more of the culprit, but the cause of making this relationship undergo complication is because of the Capulets and Montagues. Both of them let their anger get ahead of themselves and.
It kills Elizabeth and causes guilt to himself, but he tries to blame everyone else, such as his father and college professors before he blames. A paradox for filmmakers, because most of the book consists of needlessly verbose reflections on natural scenery, emotions, and relationships, with little dramatic tension or any of the other elements that makes for a page-turning thriller; there is conflict, much melodrama, and occasional moments of horror but not enough to maintain much suspense.
Nevertheless, Frankenstein appears to be one of the stories most frequently adapted in film, and even more so if one counts films that owe it a debt without giving credit, such as Blade Runner and the recent television. Female characters, such as Elizabeth, Justine and Agatha do not have their own roles, but are there to clearly represent the male characters in the novel.
