Human and Monster Help People

In the Frankenstein, there are sextuplet characters that die in the fabrication. What is the fundamental cause of their conclusion? Who is the real sea wolf? One may argue that this question is nonmeaningful because it is obvious that the nameless freak kills almost every character keep out victors nonplus, who died natur every finally(predicate)y. However, the real killer should not be retri aloneive the one who kills people by his hand, just the one who causes the death of so firearmy innocent people, fundamentally.In the novel, initially, the nameless wildcat is a unfeignedly benevolent puppet, only, with time went by, peoples secretion gradually changed him to devil, who laid to revenge his occasion by killing his beloved. Therefore, discrimination is the real killer. First, examining how the six characters died may lead to insight for the questions on hand. Caroline Beaufort, Victors mother, dies of scarlet fever. William Frankenstein, Victors youngest brother , is strangled by heavyweight in the woods outside Geneva.Justine Moritz, a young girl adopted into the Frankenstein household, is penalize for Williams murder. Henry Clerval, victors boyhood friend and Elizabeth Lavenza, victors the wife, are strangled by the monster too. Alphonse Frankenstein, Victors father, is outgo with grief over the deaths of his close family members. The monster is, directly or indirectly, obscure every time character dies except victors mothers death. But wherefore does he do this? Is that because of his record? no The monster is virtuous at the beginning. The whole village was roused whatsoever fled, some attacked me, until, grievously bruised by stones and many other kinds of missile weapons, I escape to the open village, and fearfully took refuge in a low hovel, restfully bare, and making a wretched manner. (73) I found the monsters reaction to peoples sudden attack is not him fighting back or an act of revenge, which is the normal response o f killer or any other evil creature, barely escape. I lay on my straw, but I could not sleep. I thought of the occurrences of the day. What chiefly potty me was the gentle manners of these people and I long to join them, but dare not.The monster wants to merge into a warm family instead of refineing to juting them. It means he also really wants to be loved and love others. The above quotes suggest that the monsters disposition is good, meaning he is not the one to harm another(prenominal) purposefully. How does a delicate creature, which goes after love, gradually reach an evil devil? Some intimacy moldiness wear happens and gradually change his thoughts. catch at how he was born. It was shady when I awoke I felt cold also, and half frightened, as it were, instinctively, finding myself so desolate. (71) This description above shows the monster is left wing alone by Victor because of the monsters appearance and suffered from coldness and loneliness since the starting t ime day when he was created, while it is just the start of his miserable life. Look at the first times when he met a charitable being. pang from hunger, the nameless creature went into a small hut and an old man sat there. He turned on hearing a noise, and perceiving me, call loudly, and quitting the hut, ran across the fields with a speed of which his debilitated form but appeared capable(72).Once the old man notices the nameless creature and runs aside because the monsters appearance is terrifying and he assumes the monster result hurt him. We canful see the old man as a representative of the ordinary people. He judges the nameless creatures by his appearance instead of quality. Imagine this situation you are a really seemly person and keep trying to make friends with others, but they discriminates you because of your skin color, sex or any other characters you have. This provide make every unrestrained creature hurt.Actually the monsters situation is even worse than t hat, because he has no companion and the still reason why everyone in this world discriminate him is his terrifying appearance which is not his fault. Therefore, it is reasonable for his home(a) world to gradually become dark. If people just try to turn away him, maybe, it is still acceptable. But what if his beloved try to destroy him? Please vista at this sentence Agatha fainted, and Safie, unable to attend to her friend, rushed out of the cottage.Felix darted forward, and with unreal force tore me from his father, to whose knees I clung, in a transport of fury, he dashed me to the ground and struck me violently with a stick. I could have torn him limb from limb, as the lion rends the antelope. But my centre of attention sank loggerheaded down me as with bitter sickness, and I refrained. (94) At the sight of the monster, worrying around monster will hurt his father, Felix spares no effort to attack the monster , while the monster is the one who had always been trying to h elp this family remedy life burden and been eager to become a part to his family.Wronged and shell by those cottagers, monster still refrained from desire to fight back, even though he is strong enough to tear Felix up. It is not the deed of a killer. How many human beings can be as tolerable as him? In a sense, the monster is even nobler than many of us. However, people bet this creature, which looks scary, as a monster, which is hostile to human. Nobody cares close it comes with a heart of gold. In this case, how does he feel? His feelings are afflicted and intensively contradictory. When I thought of my friends, of the mild voice of De Lacey, the gentle eyes of Agatha, and the exquisite salmon pink of the Arabian, these thoughts vanished and a gush of tears somewhat soothed me. But again when I reflected that they had spurned and deserted me, anger returned, a hydrophobia of anger, and unable to wrong any affaire human, I turned my fury towards dyspneic objects. (97)Throu gh these sentences, we can feel the monsters inner struggle. He wanted to vent his indignation and hatred, but at the thought of his protector, he calmed down. Then, once he thinks of their passing play and aversion to him, rage came back.However, he only turned his anger to inanimate stuff. He wants to revenge for what people have done to him but his nature tells him he shouldnt do that. Even if he cant control his anger, he still tries to minimize the damage by only destroying inanimate stuff. He wants to be a genuine person and gets on well with human being, but was rejected and hurt again and again. The earth tortured him emotionlessly. He was perplexed at that time. His thought was not as benevolent and pure as before. The discrimination of human being towards him make him started thinking of revenge.However, there is some amour worse waiting for him. This was then the reward of my charity I had saved a human being from destruction, and as remediate I now writhed under the miserable pain of a wound which shattered the flesh and bone. The feelings of kindness and gentleness which I had amused but a few moments before gave place to hellish rage and gnashing of teeth. Inflamed by pain, I vowed eternal hatred and vengeance to all mankind. (99) This is the description of the inner world of monster after being piquantness by a peasant whose daughter was saved by monster.He tried his best to save a girl and its the assure of his heart of gold. However, the girls father never thought of why he save her life and try to restore her animation, but chilliness him because his appearance makes him look like a monster which will hurt human being. What if it is a human being that saves the girl? Usually, the peasant will show his gratitude and might even ask him to have a meal. If we compare these two conditions, we will find the deed of the savior is the same and but the attitude of peasant will be different. What determines the differences is the appearance of the saver.Humanlike saver is regarded as a nice person and creature which has strange or frightening appearance is regarded as devil. Isnt that a kind of discrimination? The cruelty of reality kept swallowing his benevolence until the only thing left him to do is revenge. When the monster compromised to victor at the condition of creating a egg-producing(prenominal) companion for him, Victor broke his promise because he thought creating another creature like monster can only bring troubles. It is a reproach of discrimination. As I looked on him, his countenance expressed the limit extent of malice and treachery.I thought with a sensation of lyssa on my promise of creating another like to him, and trembling with passion, tore to pieces the thing on which I was engaged. (119)This scene happened after Victor seeing the guinea pig of monster. When Victor was about to finish his work, he started to think creating another creature like monster can only bring more tragedies and d istinct to destroyed the monsters female companion. It is true that the monster killed his brothers, but it is because there are too many miseries happened, revenge becomes the only thing he want to do to vent his indignation.We should notice that the monster can bring more sorrow to Victor and even other human beings, if only he wanted. However, if he didnt do that, it means, in his deep heart, he is still benevolent creature. Nevertheless, Victor never care about how many good deeds the monster has done or the ecstasy of the creature he create, but only thought that the negative takings of what the creature would make. Victor assumed the monster can never be a good creature, so his thought and decision are the reflection of discrimination on the monster.When we try to synthesis every part of novel I mentioned before, we will find the nature of this monster is good, but, gradually, the only thing in his mind is to revenge. What kind of thing makes a so nice creature become an evi l? The answer is countless misery and manginess he experienced. Why does a nice creature have to suffer so much? Is that because of the fault of God? No It is because of the discrimination. No offspring how many times the monster help people, everyone in the novel, even children, thinks this creature is evil and tries to hurt people, so they avoid him, hurt him and even try to kill im. A nice creature never receives love or even sympathy because of his appearance, and, regardless of how the monster felt, his creator destroyed his last hope of being loved, so he wanted to see his creator was as painful as he was and decided to murder victors beloved. at one time we can see that discrimination makes the nameless benevolent creature become a devil, contributing to the death of innocent people. So the real killer should be human beings discrimination.
