Frankenstein oder der moderne Prometheus
Frankenstein oder der moderne Prometheus, written by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley and first published in 1818, tells the story of Victor Frankenstein, a Swiss scientist who creates a sentient being. The narrative unfolds through a mix of letters and first-person accounts, revealing Victor's tragic pursuit of knowledge and the consequences of playing God as he is pursued by the vengeful creature he brought to life. This novel serves as a cautionary tale about unchecked ambition and the moral implications of scientific exploration, drawing parallels to the mythological figures of Faust and Prometheus.
