Shelleys use of language contributes to the evocation of sympathy for the creature.

point of
paragraph clear from beginning. The archaic and biblical tone used by the creature,
indicated by words such as thy and doth evidence liken the form of the novel to that of a
prophecy linking language and form together; the creature is presented as a figure of
Biblical significance which affirms his self proclaimed role of the fallen angel. This
interpretation suggests that the creature is indeed more sinned against than sinning because
the reason for which he is the fallen angel is a result of Victors negligence and the allusion
to Miltons Paradise Lost likens the creature to Adam, like Adam, the monster was created
perfectly and loved those around him evaluating interpretation by comparison to other
gothic text. He was not born evil or with the intent to do harm and violence to others, but
throughout the novel his emotions overwhelmed his mind, and he committed heinous acts
against others point developed. Furthermore, the use of antitheses and oxymorons
demonstrate the extent of the creatures sentient mind, the fact that he is thy creature and
ought to be thy Adam; but I am rather the fallen angel confirms signaling strength of
argument this idea as the use of the semicolon contrasts the two opposing analogies using
language as evidence whereas the Adam to which he refers symbolises the good, the
fallen angel is a metaphor for the sin which he has committed alternative interpretation.
This idea is repeated, for he was benevolent and good; misery made me a fiend again the
use of the semi colon separates the two juxtaposing ideas which emphasise the creatures
ability to reason morally further examples of my argument. As a moral being its difficult to
believe final sentence links back to argument set out at the beginning Frankensteins
presentation and neglect of his creature, through his references to him as a fiend devil and
abomination words which evoke the inherent evil that Frankenstein accuses his creature
of.
