• What are some myths used by Mary Shelley in the Frankenstein? 

★Myth is the word, which came to existence in the mid 19th century. Because earlier it was known as Mythos. It is a Greek word. Myth means story or word.

1:- Myth of Narcissus

  ★    The myth of Narcissus in which the legend is there. A tale told by Roman poet Ovid.Eacho, a young girl who falls in love with Narcissus. In Greek mythology, the myth of Narcissus can be noticed. It tells that Narcissus was a hunter from the territory of Thespiae in Boeotia who was renowned for his beauty. He was the son of a river god named Cephisus and a nymph named Lyriope. He was exceptionally proud of what he did to those who loved him. Nemesis noticed and attracted Narcissus to a pool, wherein he saw his reflection and fell in love with it, not realizing it was merely an image. Unable to leave the beauty of his reflection, Narcissus died. Narcissus is the origin of the term narcissism, after this story this term came into existence.

    ★  The myth of Narcissus is one of the most known Greek Myths, due to its uniqueness and moral tale; Narcissus, was the son of River God Cephisus and nymph Lyriope. He was known for his beauty and he was loved by God Apollo due to his extraordinary physique. The myth of Narcissus comes in two different versions, the Greek and the Greco-Roman version, as both Conon the Greek and Ovid, the Roman poet, wrote the story of Narcissus, enhancing it with different elements.

2:- Myth of Prometheus 

★prometheus created humans and gave them knowledge

★jupiter is the highest ' mighty one '

★jupiter becomes afraid that humans will become more powerful than him.

★he creates a beautiful goddess Pandora,meaning all -gifted .

★jupiter gives a box to Pandora containing evils in which Pandora is aware of.

★pandora opens the box , thinkins there are jewels , realise the evil.

★jupiter remains in control and punishes Prometheus .

★hercules saves promethues and all good is restored .

(Theme :- suffering , power ) 

★The human in the Prometheus myth show suffering when Pandora's box is opened by Pandora.

 ★In Frankenstein the ch. Of Justine , henry , William show suffering through the monsters wrath .

★Innocent people in both stories suffer as  a result of the evils which is brought into thier society.

●●So,...... 

★Frankenstein and the Prometheus myth related in these ways related between victore and Jupiter .

◆Write about the narratology of Frankenstein?

★As we all know that marya jelly was used multiple narratives in altriply story within story so, there are three narrators :- ....

1:-Captain Walton

2:-victor Frankenstein

3:-THE monster

Gerald gennete's Narrative Discourse ,and figurative of literature Discourse are foundational work in narratology.

Here in Frankenstein "I"narration or we can fram narrative , story within story .

The nature of the narrative in Frankenstein  is inseparably linked to its structure , which combines three different narrative stances.

These narratives sit with in one another , like a set of boxes.

The structure is tight because of embaed narrative .

★After thinking for days, Shelley dreamy about a scientist who created life and was horrified by what he had made; her dream later evolved into the novel's story.

◆
What are some major differences between movie and the novel Frankenstein ?

★MOVIE➨Victor brings Elizabeth back to life, with the monster attempting to take her as his bride
 NOVEL➡ Elizabeth is killed by the monster strangling her
In novel , monster wants to revenge oan all society because of his condition .
In film he wants his revenge only on victore , his created and Frankenstein's family .
★victore meet henry c in INGOLSTLAND An Uni.
★Henry is a friend of victore since childhood.
In book victories mother dies becauS of an illness however , in the film she dies giving birth to William.

Do you think the search for the knowledge is dangerous and destructive?



★Victor tells Walton, 'Learn from me…how dangerous is the acquirement of knowledge and how much happier that man is who believes his native town to be the world, than he who aspires to become greater than his nature will allow.'  Victor's pride or search of knowledge destroys him and everyone whom he loves.





★I think from experience, experiments , and mistakes also from that humans are know very things and so that I can say that the search for  knowledge is not Dangerous and destructive .
