The decision of creating a new blog‚ and calling it the Mexican Frankenstein‚ was not that hard to make. I actually think that it came naturally to me after a few days of reading the book by Mary Shelley‚ Frankenstein or the modern Prometheus. But to make it easier to understand why‚ this is the context surrounding the decision I made. A few days before my travel to Hungary‚ I spoke with one of my colleagues about his plans for the future. He had applied for (and won) an scholarship to study in

professional researchers to address is not usually a good question for someone doing a PhD thesis in lone-scholar‚ no-budget mode. (Dunleavy 2003‚ p. 20) But a topic that is too small makes it difficult for you to demonstrate that you have made a contribution to knowledge. Not being clear about your thesis topic.

Mary Shelley‚ the author of Frankenstein and The Modern Prometheus wrote during her life in the eighteenth century.

The Female’s Side of The “Frontier Thesis” England‚ a small and familiar place for many‚ was a community with very strict rules and beliefs. The Church of England was the dominant power over the country‚ and not everyone was happy with this dictatorship.

Promethian and Faustian Presences in Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein A myth may be defined‚ however loosely‚ as an answer to an otherwise unanswerable question‚ in some cases due to the incomprehensibility of such an answer. It cannot be denied that Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein (1818) poses a number of such unfathomable questions‚ largely concerning that which separates men from gods‚ and the point at which supposedly beneficial ambition becomes mindless and destructive obsession. The best alternative
