Statements of Inquiry:
Factual: Shelley’s novel serves as a warning of science gone awry and the irreversible outcomes of well-intentioned experiments. What are some scientific inventions/experiments that are happening right now that could lead to monstrous results?
Conceptual: What factors influenced Mary Shelley’s perspective and perceptions in “Frankenstein”
Debatable: How do Hollywood, pop culture, and Frankenstein’s many incarnations play a role in your previous perceptions of the novel? What wasn’t in the story that you thought would be because of your preconceptions?
