Frankenstein And Man-Made Monster: Article Analysis

The articles “Frankenstein” and “Man-Made Monster” convey the theme “We should not judge people by their appearance.” Both articles include several examples of this saying. Most of the examples are in the passage “Frankenstein.” Another way of expressing this is “We should not judge a book by its cover,” mostly because the story is represented by the monster’s face. Just by seeing it people would think that the monster is an evil creature, however if they read the story they would realize that it’s not even a little bit dangerous.
According to the passage “Man-made Monster,” the Frankenstein monster is a man-like creature created by a mad scientist named Baron Victor von Frankenstein. This tremendous creature had been assembled from the

limbs and organs of cadavers. This science-fiction story was written by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley in 1818. The story was first put into words in Switzerland on a stormy evening in 1816. The monster was said to be incredibly tall, yellow-eyed, and having skin-like parchment. On the other hand, in the movie Frankenstein, the monster’s appearance was astonishingly monstrous.
Just by looking at such monster, people would think it’s evil and dangerous. And indeed it happened. As stated in the article “Frankenstein,” when the monster escaped from the oubliette he’s been kept in by the Baron, he was harassed by the misinformed villagers. They thought he was dangerous and evil because of his looks. The monster, scared, ran away and met an old blind man, who treated him nicely and carefully. The monster didn't have any instincts to harm the old man. For in spite of his horrible looks, he has a nice and caring heart.
