Title of the paper: Frankestein's pre-creators

Author or topic: Mary Shelley

Abstract:
Mary Shelley's Frankestein is one of the most representative novels of the genre we now know as Gothic but we´ll see she took many ideas from her parents, for example Godwin´s William Caleb and also Wollstonecraft´s Vindication of the Rights of Woman.

What I´m going to do is to try to reflect these influences on her novel. First of all I´ll analyse the work (plot, narrator/s, characters...) and then I´ll connect the aspects she shared with her parents.

This last question is the aim of my paper; to show that Frankestein is a "heritage".
