SUMMARY:Frankenstein at 200
DESCRIPTION:2018 marks the two-hundredth anniversary of Mary Shelley’s
  classic novel Frankenstein – a book about birth\, death
 \, fragmentation\, monstrosity\, and knowledge that continues t
 o haunt contemporary thought and culture. In the two centuri
 es since its publication\, readers have variously interprete
 d Frankenstein as a cautionary tale of scientific hubris\, 
 an allegory of motherhood\, a political commentary\, and a got
 hic horror. Meanwhile\, the loquacious monster at the heart o
 f the novel has left the book to become a figure of inarticu
 lacy and terror in the popular imagination. Recent scholarsh
 ip on Frankenstein juggles between these polarities\, while
  also considering manuscript evidence of a collaborative wri
 ting process shared by Mary Shelley and her poet husband Per
 cy.
