                              All literature is influenced by the time period in which it was written; whether it be war,
                              poverty, or any other social trends. People tend to write commentaries of political events,
                              or just describe the time period. Whether it is intentional or subconscious, an author can
                              not help to include some aspects of the time period in which they are in. The Romantic
                              Period had a tremendous influence on Marry Shelly’s writing of the novel, Frankenstein.
                              The Industrial Revolution in England during the late 1700’s was a time of great change.
                              The populace was moving into cities, and people were disillusioned by the destruction of
                              nature and the living conditions in the cities. In response to this disillusionment, people
                              started to envision the world differently than they had before. They saw nature as all
                              beautiful, powerful, and perfect. Previously, the inspiration for literature was law, order,
                              and religion; now, it is in the writers imagination and powerful emotions. This change in
                              the attitude of the people is called Romanticism. The Romantic Movement is one of the
                              most important literary periods in history; affecting the literature, music, and art of the
                              period. It encouraged spontaneity, and acting with emotions, not common sense. In the
                              more classical style of writing, writers addressed their books to the upper class, but now
                              writers addressed the common man and his problems. Their was a new feeling of
                              spirituality. People were seeking eastern concepts of nirvana, transcendentalism and being
                              one with nature. People wanted to experience life, not study it. They seeked extreme
                              emotions, whether they were good or bad. Marry Shelly used all of these philosophies of
                              the Romantic Period in writing, Frankenstien.
                              Victor Fankenstien is a man with great ambition, he is obsessed and self-centered. His life
