Barnes & Noble Classics pulls together a constellation of influences—biographical, historical, and literary—to enrich each reader's understanding of these enduring works. Mary Shelley began writing Frankenstein when she was only eighteen. At once a Gothic thriller, a passionate romance, and a cautionary tale about the dangers of science, Frankenstein tells the story of committed science student Victor Frankenstein. Obsessed with discovering "the cause of generation and life" and "bestowing animation upon lifeless matter," Frankenstein assembles a human being from stolen body parts but; upon bringing it to life, he recoils in horror at the creature?s hideousness. Tormented by isolation and loneliness, the once-innocent creature turns to evil and unleashes a campaign of murderous revenge against his creator, Frankenstein.
Frankenstein , an instant bestseller and an important ancestor of both the horror and science fiction genres, not only tells a terrifying story, but also raises rofound, disturbing questions about the very nature of life and the place of humankind within the cosmos: What does it mean to be human? What responsibilities do we have to each other? How far can we go in tampering with Nature? In our age, filled with news of organ donation genetic engineering, and bio-terrorism, these questions are more relevant than ever.

父子 弗兰肯斯坦是那个人造人的名字?我猜没看过书的人90%会有这印象。不过事实上,弗兰肯斯坦是造人者的姓,而他所创造的人在书中根本就没有名字(没人给他起!)。全书中,人造人最常见的称呼是怪物,其他的还包括wretch、murderer、deformity乃至vampire。至于“弗兰肯斯坦...
评分关于《科学怪人弗兰肯斯坦》是评论从它诞生那天起就不曾断过,这是一切科幻小说的鼻祖,是恐怖片的源泉,很多后期艺术都有它的影子,例如雨果《巴黎圣母院》卡西莫多一角的设立以及他的性格和遭遇、《剪刀手爱德华》中也有它的缩影,甚至连最近的国产影片《倔强的萝卜》里也可...
评分《弗兰肯斯坦》作为世界第一部科幻作品,其诞生无疑具有深刻的社会历史背景。但是在工业革命的背景下进行描述的这种“造物者”与“被造者”之间的冲突的背后,又是否还有一个更为宏巨的隐喻空间?——引我这样提问的缘故在于,至少在《弗兰肯斯坦》中引申出的“造物者”...
评分 评分前言中还在说这本小说的主旨是揭示剥削阶级剥削被剥削阶级的残酷现实和被剥削阶级的勇敢反抗,让人不禁想,现在这是什么年代,何必呢。 我喜欢的译文版呀,新出版的怎么也会这样呢,又不是那个【最高指示】的年代了,真的何必呢。 弗兰肯斯坦在看到自己造出的怪物为害人类以后...
