Frankenstein
What are the creature’s first impressions of the world and the new discoveries he makes?
Chapter 11 of Frankenstein opens with these sentences:
“It is with considerable difficulty that I remember the original era of my being; all the events of that period appear confused and indistinct. A strange multiplicity of sensations seized me, and I saw, felt, heard, and smelt at the same time; and it was, indeed, a long time before I learned to distinguish between the operations of my various senses.”
From this point forward, everything the creature experiences is new to him. What are the creature’s first impressions of the world and the new discoveries he makes? Describe his perspectives about his new discoveries, choosing at least two discoveries to focus on. Provide examples of his thoughts and feelings about each discovery, using evidence from the text to support your response.
