Shelley uses figurative language to assist readers in how the characters feel about what is going on. In this simile, Victor is comparing men to monsters that have a thirst for blood, or vampires. The use of this simile creates a sense of how Victor is feeling about the execution of Justine.

Shelley uses figurative language to help develop how the creature feels in his situation. She uses an allusion to a fable stating, “It was as the ass and the lap-dog.” This statement is from a fable where a donkey tries to imitate a lap-dog but gets punished for it. This is similar to how the creature feels about stealing the people’s food. He stops taking the food and in return puts wood at their door every morning. Shelley’s use of figurative language helps the audience realize that the creature is not as mean as everyone may think.

“Several strange facts combined against her”

In chapter 8 of Frankenstein, author Mary Shelley uses personification to show how many people were against her in the trial. She says that the facts combined against her.

This use of personification gives the reader an idea of how the trial was against her and how the facts were all going to decide the outcome of the trial. In conclusion the author uses personification in the story to show how the trial outcome was going to be.
“Nature was broken only by the brawling waves”

In this small sentence above author, Mary Shelley uses alliteration. She begins three words in this sentence with the letter B. This is a use of alliteration in the story. She uses this because she wants to show how the waves are brawling and are able to break nature. But the reason she uses alliteration is to give the sentence a more pleasant sound and to make it understandable to the reader. In conclusion the author uses alliteration to make the sentence sound better and help the reader better understand the point of the sentence.

“Remorse extinguished every hope.”
In this sentence, Shelley is personifying remorse but is not necessarily giving it human characteristics.  Remorse cannot literally extinguish hope because both ideas are abstract ideas.  There is more emotion behind this sentence than there is a literal sense.  Shelley uses this slight personification to evoke emotion from the reader.

“The surface is very uneven, rising like the waves of a troubled sea, descending low, and interspersed by rifts that sink deep.”
In this Shelley is comparing how the frozen water looks like it did when it was not frozen.  She uses a simile to convey this message.  She is saying that the ice is very uneven just like it would be if the water was moving with the waves.  So in other words the water froze while it was still in motion.  Shelley uses the simile to help give a better picture of the ice.

Personification - “The very winds whispered in soothing accents, and maternal nature bade me weep no more.”
Ch 9
Pg 65
While on his journey, Frankenstein, remembers the feeling of bliss. With words like, whispered and soothing, a relief is created. By personifying the wind, Shelley makes the reader feel the sense of relief, a large juxtaposition from the torturous existence Frankenstein has been dealing with.

Allusion - Remember, that I am thy creature; I ought to be thy Adam, but I am rather the fallen angel, whom thou drivest from joy for no misdeed. Ch 10
Pg 69
When on his travels, Frankenstein comes into contact with his creation, and is prepared to fight to the death with it. But instead the monster, through its quickly obtained linguistics skills, questions why Frankenstein wants to destroy him. While questioning, the creature alludes to the Catholic religion, more specifically the figure of Adam and the figure of Lucifer. This can be seen as a reference from Shelley of her spirituality, and make the creature seem more personable/understandable than the scientific speak of Frankenstein.
