"Frankenstein's Monster" - Expanding Horizons

What this episode covers

Why is the story of Frankenstein's Monster so popular, even over 200 years since it was written by Mary Shelley? The original title gives a hint: "Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus". Mary Shelley was inspired in part by a classic myth and, like all great stories, it reflects many enduring themes, such as loss, guilt, father-child relationships, and the consequences of defying nature's laws. Here Kris explores these themes and their links to spirituality.
