Frankenstein: Doppelgänger Relationship

Scientific experiments are performed to reach a specific goal, yet a reverse affect is nearly always evident. Just as science can end up creating dual reactions, electricity holds this same power, that of magnetism. This duality can be applied to many aspects of Frankenstein. In fact it can be understood as the struggle between good versus evil. One may also view the duality of electricity as a metaphor representing two parts of the same entity. This in turn forms a doppelgänger relationship. However, it is difficult to decipher who represents good and who represents evil -- the man or the monster. One would initially assume the monster is the villain, yet it is the doctor, who upon seeing his hideous creation runs away from his responsibilities. Due to such neglect and monstrous appearance the monster is misunderstood and sets it upon himself to take revenge upon his creator and haunt him endlessly.
