Who Is Victor Frankenstein Human

In Gris Grimly's Frankenstein, Victor Frankenstein a scientist, who wanted to discover the scientific fields in which led him to create a creature that had never been seen before. Victors monster was only a monster in appearance yet has the qualities of knowledge and intelligence as a human. He was a rational thinker and can be considered human.

The creature is most certainly human because he feels like a human, he developed the emotions of mankind, the creature's capacity for good is demonstrated by his positive viewing of the cottager's kind qualities. Once he realizes that the cottagers rarely have enough to eat, he stops eating their food and starts to try and help them by using their tools and cutting wood for them. This action demonstrates

that the creature has kind manners and is considerate about others just as any human would.

Another reason why the creature can be considered human because he has the qualities of the average human, intelligence.

He is called a monster and yet we see him speaking fluently, telling the story of how he came into this world, unwelcomed with inhospitality. He speaks very articulate for a ''creature'' and displays such a human-like character in the book. When he and Victor had reunited for the first time in two years he defines himself as ''benevolent'' (101) & '' {with a soul that} glowed with love and humanity''(83), which is true considering the old blind man welcomed this so-call ''abhorred monster''(82) into his home with kindness and hospitality.

He was made of scientific inquiry but nonetheless he is still rationalized and human-like.

He intends to merge himself into society, but because of the way he looks, he feels abandoned and unwanted. These feelings lead him to seek revenge against Victor. His appearance should have nothing to do with his persona for instance, his height makes him ''scary'' and ''abnormal'' but he is still shorter than the tallest human ever recorded, Robert Waldow with the height of 8'11. The creature was not always a great person all the time, but what motivated him to such horrible things was Victor, Victor created him in such a monstrous way which allows every character to not view him as

human.

In conclusion, Victor Frankenstein's ''monster'' was made of scientific inquiry, however, was still considered human. He is just as human as any other character in the book, he was only a monster in appearance, as stated before and what is needed is to just get passed his looks and focus on the things that are human about him. In my opinion the creature is human.
