your research Frankenstein A. Research the
characteristics of Gothic literature and make a
list of everything you learn about it. Then
review passages from the novel Frankenstein and
compare the list of Gothic characteristics to the

Frankenstein is a Gothic novel. In your

the story such as the setting, character
development, narrative voice, tone, and theme.
Choose a few of these, and explain how they
contribute to the novels identity as a Gothic
novel. Support your findings with lines from the

early 1800s in Britain. Choose a few of
these advancements that happened BEFORE 1818 when
