Essay / How a Guardian article relates to Mary...
I chose this particular article from the Guardian newspaper because I thought it best related to what was happening and was a great part of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. For example, when you walk into a nearby no-frills store to buy cereal. The box is categorized “Contains GMOs. The first thought that comes to your mind is: A. “Cool! GMOs can offer valuable additional nutrients and superior crop resistance, leading to longer, healthier lives for many of the world's most disadvantaged people. Plus, it makes my cornflakes inexpensive! » B. “Scandalous! Humans have no right to interfere with nature, mainly because the long-term effects of genetic alterations have been completely unstudied. Who knows what effect this food could have on our figure or on the environment around us? » If you were Mary Shelley, you would definitely choose “None of the above.” Frankenstein doesn't say that new scientific discoveries are bad, but that's not the case either. telling us “oh, that’s what’s going to happen if you mess with nature, that’s for sure.” Instead, it is a warning against the mismanagement and mistreatment of science by unwitting or careless people.

Without knowing it, they taught the monster to speak. The monster also makes a journey from helpless to enforcer. When Victor abandons the monster, the wretch feels abandoned. But when the monster takes the life of the victorious brother, he becomes the executioner.8. I read The Hunger Games: the mockingjay it is about has made many similar journeys. The protagonist is a girl named Katniss Everdeen. Katniss starts off as an innocent girl, much like Victor, as she has no introduction to the real world. Once she gets on a train and goes to the big city, she learns that sometimes you have to be wild to get what you want. Thanks to this trip, he wins the hunger games. Unfortunately, the opposite happened for Victor. He learned that crossing boundaries had consequences..
