Focus of Study:

Examine the novel for evidence of Mary Shelley's views of parent/child 
relationships.


Compare / Contrast Frankenstein and his creature

Research Nature vs. Nurture and Scientific view of behavioral geneticists


Is Frankenstein responsible for his creation?  Does he cause his creation to 
turn into a monster?

Rewrite the "birth" scene from the novel using the creature's point of 
view.  Give him the point of view that reflects your research.
