Frankenstein Presentation
Allusions, Gothic Lit, and the Framed Narrative
Objective: you will be creating a video, or you may choose to do an in class presentation, about the allusions, Gothic elements, and/or framed narrative found in the novel Frankenstein.
You may work solo or in a small group of 2-3 (you must get approval of your group from Mr. Li)
Overview: Synthesis of the allusions, Gothic Literature, and/or the framed narrative
Criteria: Choose ONE OR TWO of these criteria
Explore an allusion or allusions and how they connect to Frankenstein
You may explore any allusion(s) from the narrative or you may convey how Frankenstein is being used as an allusion (you must get approval of your post-allusion from Mr. Li)
Explore the elements of Gothic Literature from Frankenstein
Explore the framed narrative found in Frankenstein in a creative way
You can explore the frame from the character’s point of view or you can explore the story in its entirety
Also required: you may choose to create a video, present to the class, or you may do both (video and presentation like SWP)
Video projects may not be longer than 2-3 minutes
In class presentations may not be longer than 3-4 minutes
Before you start, you must pitch your idea with me!
Don't be afraid to share an idea with me of what you want to do with this project, you never know what I might approve of...
