Judgement In Frankenstein

In the fiction novel Frankenstein, by Mary Shelley, the Creature that Victor Frankenstein created was originally good at heart. When he was first brought to life he had good intentions and just wanted to be loved. Although, the Creation sought acceptance from humans, he soon realized he looked monstrous and no one would ever care for him. Many humans look at him disapprovingly, and, they judged him without knowing his kind heart. The judgmental humans are what lead to the Creature 's downfall. Victor wanted to play the role of God and be a creator of a new species. He took life into his hands and was amazed but scared of the outcome (35).

His wish is to become a part of this family, and, he doesn 't want them to judge him for being so ugly. He knows he can 't approach the Delacy family because they will be scared of him, so, he takes everything slowly. He first started collecting wood for the family as a small gift of generosity.

Victor agrees because he is afraid of the Creature. The Creature promises to leave forever if Victor makes a girl for him. However, Victor does not follow through with his promise. He sees the Monster staring at him through the window as he is making the female, and, he destroys all of his work (121). Victor thinks of all the bad that the "daemon" and his companion could do. He decides he cannot complete his project. The Creature just did not want to be alone forever, but, Victor destroyed his lifelong partner. This is the last straw for the Creature, and, he is so upset he kills Henry Clerval, Victor 's best friend (129). A little while after killing Clerval, the Creature kills Elizabeth too, Victor 's wife (144). Victor was destroyed emotionally, which is what the
