In Michaelangelo’s Creation of Adam, the “outstretched hand” signifies God instilling life in Adam, and thereby instilling life in all of humanity through the first man. It implies through physical affection, that a parent must inherently receive a child with open arms because of the intrinsic love and bond that manifests between them in their first moments together. Further, it suggests that their time with one another sets the tone for the relationship that the parent and child will have, as well as the behavior that the child will exhibit as he/she matures. Additionally, this illustration testifies to the unspoken rule of nurturing one’s offspring out of an innate duty to assume responsibility over one’s creation. In Frankenstein, Victor perceives his creation as an abominable monster incapable of meriting love and nurture (Shelley 58). The “outstretched hand” motif attests to the notion that when a parent fails to embrace a child, that child will forcibly navigate the world, unbeknownst to rules, compassion, or proper conduct. As such, it stands to reason that the Fiend behaves so brutishly; it exists devoid of its creator’s love.

In Frankenstein, Victor’s parents made a point of exuding to their family sheer jubilance and love, so Victor knew the feeling of love that stems from parents to their children. Moreover, he knew precisely that he felt that love because his parents made it so, and only ever willed to suffuse their offspring with fondness and warmth (Shelley 27). However, Victor fails to provide the Fiend with that same love that only a parent could emulate because of its physical deformities, and presumably because those very deformities diminish the grandeur in Victor’s ability to reanimate. As a zealous scientist yearning for glory, Victor believes that his innovations must stand devoid of all defects. Thus, his perfectionism undoubtedly prohibits him from finding contentment in such a groundbreaking scientific revelation. Indisputably, Victor’s actions hold no justification because he knew that by bending the laws of science and nature, he irrevocably opened the gateway to failure and calamity. Consequently, he must spearhead the situation that he bred, unabated by the trivialities of appearances.

In Frankenstein, Victor experiments obstinately to create a living being, and after two years of research, he finally uncovers the secret to reanimation. Subsequently, a few months later, he sows life into the Fiend. However, he flees in repugnance at the sight of his creature’s incongruous body parts and yellow complexion (Shelley 58). Despite the fact that Victor received unconditional love from his parents, he ironically cannot find it within himself to reciprocate that love onto his own progeny. His prejudiced behavior reflects a superficial dissatisfaction with himself as a scientist because of his inability to make a better-looking creature. Likewise, he cannot love the creature because its very existence only reminds Victor of his faulty experimentation. Nevertheless, Victor’s actions contain no justification whatsoever. He became confined to the idea of bringing an inanimate object to life, knowingly defying all codes of ethics and morality; therefore, he must proceed with responsibility and accountability by handling his creation. He already witnessed a dire repercussion of neglecting the Fiend–his brother, William’s, death–so he must exert all of his power to alter his creature’s behavior, and restore the balance of nature.

In Frankenstein, Victor deserves the title of both a mad and bad scientist. Victor becomes obsessed with the creation of life and consequently neglects anyone that cares for him. He utilizes two years of his life attempting to construct a new form of life (Shelley 45). Victor’s ambitions and desire to make a breakthrough blinded him from reality. Moreover, as Victor finally gives life to his new creation, he quickly neglects and regrets his creation. Instead of providing the fiend with unconditional love and support, Victor runs away from his creation (Shelley 52). Victor knows very well that his creation just seeks acceptance and unconditional love. The fiend even demonstrates its need for love and acceptance as it attempts to connect to the DeLacey family (Shelley 119). Victor’s failure to meet his responsibilities as both a scientist and a parent prove his merited title. A great scientist takes pride in their creations, not shame. Victor’s actions do not hold any justification as Victor held awareness of the actions he committed. Victor knew he pursued to create a new form of life. However, he needed to accept the responsibilities that came with an attempted innovation. For these reasons, Victor deserves the title of both a mad and bad scientist.

In Frankenstein, after Victor achieves his obsession of creating life, he essentially becomes obsessed with killing his creation. After neglecting his creation love and affection on various occasions throughout the book, the fiend decides to make Victor’s life a living nightmare. The fiend participates in the death of many of Victor’s closest people. The fiend contributes to the deaths of William, Justine, Henry Cerval, Elizabeth, and Alphonse. Victor, filled with rage, decides to make killing his creation his last course of action. In accordance, Victor dedicates his life to killing the fiend (Shelley 182). As Victor slowly dies of sickness, he even asks Walton to kill his creation in the matter of stabbing it in its heart (Shelley 184). Although the monster causes great grief and havoc in Victor’s life, Victor’s views and intentions hold no justification. Victor holds the fault in the events that occurred after giving life to his creation. Victor did not nurture or build a connection with his creation, essentially leaving it to turn to destructive ways. If Victor nourished his creation from the start, the fiend would’ve learned a different means of living. No one can justify Victor’s views or intentions as the fault falls at his very own feet.

In Fankenstein, Victor seemingly becomes insane after his mother’s death and isolates himself at Ingolstaldt University to study chemistry. During those two years, the glorifaction of discovering the creation of life drives his insanity as he become obsessed with developing his creation. Victors vaulting desire to seemingly become God by creating his monster makes him dissociate from his reality. Consequently, he defies the laws of science and reasoning because he cannot literally create life as a mortal being. Once Victor creates his monster, his madness seemingly fades as he no longer seeks a God complex but rather regrets the consequences of his actions. He neglects his creation and ironically states “no mortal could support the horror of that countenance. A mummy again endued with animation could not be so hideous as that wretch” (Shelley 52). Victor diminishes the physical appearance of his monster yet his ability to reanimate resulted in the monsters undesirable perception. As a scientist, Victor understands that life cannot be created without biological reproduction, thus his scientific actions remain unjustifiable. He sought to create a new form of life without considering the logical reasoning behind his actions and discussing his ideas with other scientists. Victor fails to accept that creating his monster does not align with science and will result in failure. A creator aims to influence and guide their creation, yet Victor fails at his responsibility as not only a creator but also as a seeming parent to nurture his monster. He knew that his scientific innovation made it his sole responsibility as he has direct ownership over his creation, yet Victor openly abandons his monster. Ironically, highlighting that Victor does not possess the ability to create life as a scientist or seeming parent because a parent treats their child with unconditional love and a scientist does not run away from their innovation. Thus, Victor's actions remain unjustifiable because he logically understood the magnitude of his discovery yet failed as a scientist to meet the responsibilities of his creation.

In Frankenstein, Victors views about his creation shift immensely after he brings the monster to life. During the process of developing the monster, Victor describes his immense fulfillment with studying by stating, “A new species would bless me as its creator and source; many happy and excellent natures would owe their being to me” (Shelley 48). Even though his work consumed him, Victor still felt he had a purpose for creating his monster. However, once his discoveries became a reality through his creation, he became displeased with his work. Victors felt that his ambition no longer had purpose because he had accomplished his goal of creating life. He chooses to disown his creation rather than assume responsibility for its care. Victor unjustifiably makes his monster the cause of his misery by failing to accept his own mistakes. He blames his brother William’s death on his creation but does not share his conclusions with any other person. He states, “I was firmly convinced in my own mind that Justine, and indeed every human being, was guiltless of this murder” (Shelly 72). Victor places the sole blame of William’s death on his creation without considering any other possibilities even though he had no contact with his creation for nearly two years. Victor unjustly presumes his monster guilty of murder to reveal his unconsious guilt by assuming that his creation seeks revenge for neglecting him. Rather than take accountability for the discourse of his actions, Victor unfairly judges and diminishes his monsters character. He does not admit to creating his monster to others because he does not want to be associated with the consequences of his actions. Thus, Victors views about his creation cannot be justified because as a human being he has the mental capacity to understand the difference between right and wrong actions, whereas, his creation has no actual brain and remains Victors innocent creation until proven otherwise.

Upon his mother’s introduction of Elizabeth into their home, she grants Frankenstein the equivalence of a god as she utters, “I have a pretty present for my Victor– to-morrow he shall have it”(Shelley 31). Consequently, Frankenstein applies this idea to his study of chemistry as he attempts to play god by creating a new life force. Thus, Frankenstein hyper-fixates on his studies as he attempts to make a breakthrough in science. Consequently, the second he achieves his goal of recreating life, he immediately regrets it and refuses to engage with his creation. Thus, Frankenstein finds that the best solution includes running away from his problem instead of confronting it, which differs from the accountability that scientists should take when they’ve unleashed something terrible onto the world. Furthermore, instead of listening to logic, as attempting to play god remains questionable, Frankenstein enthusiastically approaches the idea and neglects the outcome as soon as possible. Thus, Frankenstein fails at both holding responsibility as a scientist and as a parent.

Victor passionately engages in the study of the creation of life and proceeds to create his being, which bestows immense misery upon himself and the fiend. Upon first viewing his creation, Frankenstein recounts, “but now that I had finished, the beauty of the dream vanished, and breathless horror and disgust filled my heart”(Shelley 51). In other words, Frankenstein can not stand the sight of his creation because of the horridness it presents. Furthermore, the terror that Frankenstein beholds of his creation greatly contrasts with the enthusiasm he first pursued the project with. Thus, Frankenstein refuses any connection with his creation and runs from it the second the fiend comes to life and reaches out to his creator. Consequently, the fiend encounters nature as his only solace as anyone he attempts to reach out to scorns him and wishes to banish him. As a result, the fiend turns into a demon as he takes revenge on his creator by killing those close to him: William, Justine, Henry, and Elizabeth. Consequently, Frankenstein dedicates himself to ridding the world of the fiend as the fiend kills off his closest companions. While the fiend did enact misery onto his creator, his creator carries no justification for his actions, as he should have taken responsibility for his creation. By taking responsibility for the fiend, Frankenstein should have understood that a new being would not look the same as those his mind has accustomed him to, affection and kindness should have formed between the fiend and himself, and running away from a problem should not present itself as the immediate solution. Thus, Frankenstein unjustly scorns the fiend until the fiend feels like the only solution to his neglect includes turning into the demon that Frankenstein paints him to be.

In Frankenstein, Victor Frankenstein maintains a zeal for anything relating to science. After entangling himself with science and nature, Frankenstein found himself interfering with the creation of man (Shelley 45). In Frankensteins' power, he creates a hideous fiend. Although his scientific discoveries led him to succeed in creating the fiend, his intellectual mind could not bear the mere creature. His intellectualness unintentionally created higher standards for his mere creations' appearance, eventually leading to the fiend's abandonment (Shelley 52). Victor Frankensteins' zeal for perfection justifies his own reasoning to abandon and name-call his creation. The readers reaction to Frankensteins' actions after creating the fiend will most likely be negative. The abandonment of creation from its creature cannot have been just because Frankenstein knew that his interference with nature and science would create consequences. Therefore, Victor Frankenstein remains in the wrong mindset and can not have justification for his actions.

In Michaelangelos Creation of Adam, the painting of the “outstretched hand” symbolizes God the Father's desire to intently have a relationship with mankind regardless of their fallen ways. God creates Adam, a man that chose to willingly sin against God leaving him, alongside his wife, to reject God. After looking closely at the hands, Adam's hand presents itself to be slothful due to his fingers pointing down while the Father's hand appears to strive more as his veins remain popped out. Furthermore, the painting reveals the unfailing love of God called agape. Agape is the Greek word for choosing to love unconditionally not based on emotions but choice. Adam represents mankind whilst God remains the father and creator. God continues striving for that relationship with mankind by simply sending His one and only begotten son to be the propitiation for mankind's sins. Although man still rejects God showing carelessness, He continues to reach His hand out ready to save. In comparison to Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, Frankenstein epitomizes the opposite characteristic. Frankenstein willingly decides to abandon his creature because the fiend remains hideous not fulfilling Frankenstein's satisfaction of perfection.

In Frankenstein, Victor overall as a scientist can be described as determined. His interest in natural science was first truly sparked at the age of thirteen when he discovered Cornelius Agrippa, Paracelsus, and Albertus Magnus. He dedicated his time to studying their research, beliefs, and findings. He then went to The University of Ingolstadt at the age of seventeen upon which he discovered that "every instant that [he has] wasted on those books is utterly and entirely lost. [He has] burdened [his] memory with exploded systems and useless names...[he] must begin [his] studies entirely anew"(Shelly 41). Despite having to relearn everything he did not give up. His determination shifted towards more of an obsession. This led him to the creation of his fiend. He worked and worked until he achieved what he wanted. Upon animating the fiend Frankenstein was shocked that he created such a monster and proceeded to run away. His action is not justified because as a scientist it is crucial that mistakes are owned up to. Victor did no such thing when he decided to run from the fiend.

Throughout Mary Shelly's novel, Frankenstein, Victor Frankenstein and Elizabeth Lavenza shared a romantic attachment at a young age due to Victor's upbringing in an emotionally-involved environment. For Elizabeth Lavenza, she portrays the essence of a dedicated and loving partner. Once the scientist devoted his attention to the creation of an unnatural existence, Elizabeth wishes to nurse her sick companion despite the notable distance not only physically but emotionally (Shelly 57). Although the scarcity of letters from Victor worries her, she continues to express her adoration and concern for the scientist. As opposed to approaching her letters with an aggressive tone, her concern and devotion to Victor disregards the assumption that her romantic interests diminished over the course of unspoken years. Furthermore, Elizabeth's character expands as she sends another letter to Victor while he travels from Paris to Switzerland. She notes with concern and dismay, "But it is your happiness I desire as well as my own when I declare to you that our marriage would render me eternally miserable" in an exception that he chooses this path for their relationship (Shelly 166). Elizabeth understands the difficulty of Victor's occupation as a chemist and alleviates the worry of romantic concerns. She does not know about the fiend Victor Frankenstein manifested into existence; therefore, her reasoning for her lover's illness and unhappiness stems from the pressure of her love. Because of Victor Frankenstein's actions, Elizabeth obliviously marries her companion without knowledge of the fiend that will end her life and the true culprit of Justine's death. Hence, Victor fails to reveal himself to his lover that, ultimately, hinders the reader's desire to justify the scientist's actions as not only a successful chemist in the eye's of his professors, but as a lover.

Professor Krempe and Professor Waldman were Victor's mentors. They believed in the more modernized side of science. They were more focused on the science discovered in the Enlightenment era. Therefore, they did not agree, more specifically Professor Krempe, with Victor's ideas when he first went to the University of Ingolstadt in Germany. He named what Victor studied "nonsense"(Shelly 40). Professor Waldman shared the same beliefs but he "smiled at the names of Cornelius Agrippa and Paracelsus, but without the contempt that M.  Krempe had exhibited"(Shelly 43). Professor Waldman didn't put Victor down despite them not sharing the same knowledge. Through the encouragement and support of both his mentors, Victor pursued his study. Despite being constantly encouraged this does not justify his actions because it was his decision to animate the fiend and go about it irresponsibly.

# data[].attributes.body
For Professor Waldman and Professor Krempe, these mentors enriches Victor Frankenstein with their profound familiarity of natural philosophy in an attempt to captivate this student's interest. Particularly, Victor listens to a lecture of Professor Waldman with immense care. The mentor distinguishes the difference of modernized, natural philosophy and the ancient teaching of the similar content, reasoning, "But these philosophers, whose hands seem only made to dabble in dirt, and their eyes to pour over the microscope or crucible, have indeed performed miracles" (Shelly 42). With great interest, Victor visits Waldman with fervor to comprehend the phenomena of creating life. The support of Professor Krempe furthered Victor Frankenstein's impulse to research for two consecutive years. These professors develops Victor into a student vigorously devoted to his education as opposed to his sentiments. As Mary Shelly accentuates through Victor, he reminisces in agitation and exasperation at the concept of his creation while Professor Waldman praises his improvement in Chemistry and natural philosophy (Shelly 60). Considering that the professors amplified Victor's yearning for knowledge, a reader could justify his actions to the extent that his logical and emotional standing blurs at the control of the unconscious. Because of the mentoring, Victor's mental instability formulates from the pressing, educational influences that bury the significance of emotional awareness. However, his actions do not justify once the scientist disregards his disruption of the natural balance of life.

To begin with, in Michangelo’s Creation of Adam illustrates God stretching his hand fully to reach Adam, the focus of humanity while Adam extends his hand half-heartedly while the surround of the hands, the rest maintain to a minimum in which we see angels surrounding God in a brain shape while Adam lays on a cliff. God with his full stretched hand is ready to help humanity and also extend his knowledge to them in order for his creation to continue to exist although they have sinned specifically Adam, but if his first creation sins then what more the rest and that’s why he has his hand extended in order to save them. In addition, Adam in his careless position demonstrates humanity's tendency to neglect God or like most children growing up they want to gain independence from their parents or creators, so they tend not to reach out to them to answer their questions or such since they feel ready to take on the world. This puts into perspective that parents will instantly extend their knowledge or hand when the children make mistakes since God always puts his attention on his creation although his creation neglects him, he will not leave them alone since it’s his responsibility as a creator. This turn to Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein that derives a different meaning from the “outstretched hand” that Frankenstein’s creation does toward his creator, but Frankenstein disgusted at his creation fled from his own room and when he returned to his room with no “monster” in his room he felt delighted and relieved since he didn’t want his friend to see it (Shelly 51). This demonstrates that as a parent that gave birth to this fiend neglected his creation’s want for his father's guidance as he stretched his hand out for his father to take. In addition, he not only wanted guidance to this unknown world, but also love and compassion from the first person that he saw when he opened his eyes since most likely he wanted to get carried in the embrace of his father, but instead his father left him to fend for himself. Without this guidance and nurture of love and compassion from his creator, he turned lonely and brutish with his manners in which Frankestien’s should not have left his creation alone since as a parent he should guide his creation.

With him as a youngling he would like to find the cause of objects and such that he saw in nature instead of just observing in which after his mom died, he stated that, “Yet from whom has not that rude hand rent away some dear connection” (Shelly 39). In this portion, he refers to death and he has a quick mourning after his mother’s death, whom he had a dear connection with that guided him and provided love and showcased it through their family interactions. Once away from all this love and comfort that his family and friends brought upon himself, he fixated himself into chemistry, antimony, and physiology in the want to bring inanimate objects to life. He dabbles into this unknown path lonely without telling his professors about his projects and discovery because he believes they will tell him he’s a madman. With this lonely path along with the sleepless nights spent on this project he feels exalted at the thought of finishing his creation, but once it’s done, he runs away from it which shows that he lacks emotional response to his creation since he longer has received love and comprehension like when he was at home. But this does not justify that as a scientist he should take responsibility for the creation that he brought alive through his own two hands instead of leaving him to fend for himself that could lead to horrible consequences.

Once Frankestien arrives at Ingolstadt University, he meets M. Krempe and then M.Waldman. For instance, M. Krempe told him to leave those ancient studies that were useless in today’s world and he assigned his several books treating that of natural philosophy, but once he returned home we see his reflection, “I had a contempt for the uses of modern natural philosophy. It was very different when the masters of science sought immorality and power; such views, although futile, were grand (Shelly 41). With this reflection we see that although a professor in science told him to relearn science, Frankenstein held on to the ideas of immorality and power that he saw as a grand notion compared to what modern science presented. In addition, once he listened to M.Waldman lecture that’s when he dedicated himself truly to mathematics and chemistry, but also modern sciences research into other subjects such as blood circulation instead of immorality, they could still create miracles and that they laid foundation to modern science. This truly launched Frankestien's interest into learning science and M.Waldman told Frankenstein to become well acquainted with every branch of natural philosophy and mathematics. Waldman gave him advice to not solely focus on one object and this professor along with Krempe praised him when he made improvements in some chemical instruments. With this he felt more confident with his skills in science and this was also true when he was creating the fiend and did not inform his professor since he later regretted this decision. Although he was influenced through their appreciation of his skills as well as not dismissing his first teachers, this does not justify his decision of creating and abandoning the fiend since that was his decision.

In the two years Victor Frankenstein spent at Ingolstadt, Germany, Professor Krempe and Professor Waldman impacted his studies and the path he took as a scientist. Although both these professors focused on the recent  science during that time period, they both influenced Victor in different ways. Professor Kermepe although called Victor's studies nonsense, Victor found "a great deal of sound sense and real information" in his lectures (Shelly 40, 45). While with Professor Waldman, he "found a true friend" (Shelly 45). Unlike Krempe, Waldman did not reject Victor's studies, instead he helped him further and expand his studies and at times would "[express] the most heartfelt exultation in [his] progress" (Shelly 45). The information, encouragement, and praise Victor received from his professor led him to feel as though everything he achieved needed to be perfect. This of course led him to be disgusted by the creature he created, because the deformities and the imperfection it exhibited. This however does not excuse his rejection towards the hand that his creation held out for him.

In Michelangelo's Creation of Adam, the "outstretched hand" signifies God attempting to give life to his creation in order to fill out the empty voidness that it lays in. Victor creates life from death and attains the power of God, however unlike God himself instead of reaching out to his creation he rejects it. Believing that the creature he created does not deserve love because of its deformities, the antithesis of Victor's mother believing Elizabeth deserves love because of her beauty (Shelly 30, 58). He leaves his "child" in an empty void. Undoubtedly this leads to the creature wandering the world with no guidance.

In MichelAngelo's creation of Adam, the “outstretched hand” motif, he suggests that parents who show physical affection to their children end up with a greater bond with their child. Affection is  a significant factor to building a strong relationship with parents and a child as the child feels loved and wanted, where if the child feels as if their parent denies them of their love, they tend to act out in order to obtain the parents attention. This interpretation relates to Victor’s denial of his responsibilities for his fiend along with his blindness to the world around him and his denial. Victor denies his fiend he created and does not give him love nor attention. This caused the fiend to act out, where if Victor was more present and showed affection and care towards him the outcome of the fiends character development would have been different and possibly positive. Overall. Mary Shellys image of the outstretched hand is portrayed as a symbol of the Fiends longing for Victor's compassion.

In Frankenstein, Victor becomes an obsessive scientist. After the passing of his mother, he goes off to Ingolstadt to study. Before leaving the University, he was already interested in science and natural philosophy. At the University, Victor becomes more attracted to chemistry and natural sciences. He works for two years to accomplish his goal of creating life. For example, “Life and death appeared to me ideal bounds, which I should first break through, and pour a torrent of light into our dark world” ( Shelley 48). Victor has become too obsessed with creating life that he will go to whatever extreme to accomplish his goal. He became so obsessed with creating life that he pushed his family and did not visit his home. Once Victor achieves his goal, he does not want contact with the creature he makes, eventually leading him to become an obsessive and bad scientist because scientists should take responsibility for their actions, and Victor does not.

In Michaelangelo’s Creation of Adam, God, and Adam are reaching out to each other. The outstretched hand motif signifies the birth of Adam. God is reaching out to Adam to give him life and to show his love. The way that Adam’s body lays shows that he is powerless and has no life in him. The outstretched hand signifies God's love for Adam and is putting all of his energy into Adam. God receives Adam with his hand open and puts all of his attention on him since, in the piece of art, Adam stands out with the landscape behind Adam. God, a father, sets the example that a parent must show to his child from the very first time they meet. However, In Frankenstein, when Victor gives life to his creation, he turns his back on him. He proceeded to leave the room and said he could not handle staring at the horrible creature he had created made him feel horror and disgust (Shelley 51). Victor does not put his hand out to his creation but instead pushes and neglects him. He abandons the creature, and when he tries to reach out, Victor rejects him making the creature feel lonely and rejected. He did not allow him to get to know him but instead judged him for his looks. Fiend feels devastated because of the love his creator did not give him, leading him to be vengeful toward Victor.  Although both ideas have the outstretched hand, they have different endings, one that shows love to his son and the other that neglects him.

Victor received unconditional love from his affectionate parents, although Victor does not reciprocate that love towards his monster and simply disowns it. Victor abandons the creature due to the intense feeling of guilt. This does not justify his actions, he became fascinated with electricity and decided to achieve glory through his contribution to scientific advancement, and yet abandons it because of its horrifying appearance, coming to the conclusion that it was a bad idea.

Victor left his creature with no guidance, nor love, Although Victor dealt with such grief, it does not give him the justification to allow him to abandon his own creation. The creature came into a work with no understanding and simply was left to learn on its own. Victor is left with so much grief and simply detaches himself from reality and makes impulsive decisions. Resulting in creating something that he eventually neglects, and does not meet the role of being a scientist nor a father to his own creation.

In Michaelangelo’s Creation of the “outstretched hand” he illustrates God extending his own hand towards Adam’s outstretched hand beyond that of human nature with their fingers almost touching ensuring life in all of humanity. Adam, the ancestor of the human race, made by God being a part of the original creation through the vibrant colors. Implying that through the physical parents must be there for their children with support and love through a bond in their first moments brought to the Earth together. The parent and child relationship remains one that nurtures physical, emotional, and the social development of a child. The unique bond that children carry with parents. This relationship lays the foundation for the child's personality, life choices, and behavior.Suggesting that the time with one another sets a tone for the relationship the parent and child will have and create. The behavior the child will exhibit with maturing over time. Michelangelo depicts Adam as an older being in comparison to an actual newly born child. Furthermore, it depicts the interference under nature with the creator providing Earth with creation of life itself. It solidifies the illustration of the nurturing of children with innocence developing as their duty to aspire to do so for their offspring with their responsibility. In Frankenstein written by Mary Shelly’s, Victor forms his creation out of body parts not making it a newborn baby but instead an older individual. Victor makes his creation- a monster incapable of being loved, "the beauty of the dream vanished, and breathless horror and disgust filled my heart." (Shelley 55). Making this relationship with the creature and its creator different than most found within parents and their own children. The creation of Victor Frankenstein questions himself in appearance and worthiness struggling to find meaning in his existence striving for revenge against his creator, Victor. Put aside to the, “outstretched hand” art by Michaelangelo it exhibits the unnatural construction and motif within parents and children or for this case creator and fiend. Parents' failure to give attention to a child will force them to navigate the world around them without guidance or permission much like when Adam bit into the forbidden apple told not to touch. Curiosity strikes a pose within children giving the Fiend a reason to behave how he does with love and understanding from their creator it would be navigated.

In Frankenstein, Victor is portrayed as a madman scientist. As a scientist he was powerful but not attentive towards his creations.Victor feels drawn to creating life and ends up creating his fiend. He ends up feeling overwhelmed by his creation and results in neglecting him. After he spent 2 years creating his fiend, he throws it away due to him being scared of what this new chapter would hold. He left his fiend alone and pushed him away. Victor not only did this to his fiend but to his family when he left to Germany to study he lost contact with them. Becoming a powerful scientist filled the void for him in a way for needing support.

Victor's parents, in Mary Shelley's gothic novel, emphasized love, kindness, and understanding in their family. They made sure they loved one another as a couple ans also as a parent of their child caring for their son Victor Frankenstein. He felt love because his parents put an emphasis on it (Shelley 32). When victor creates his fiend out of body parts conjugated together with one another, he fails to provide with the love that his very own parents gave him to his own creation. He was not fond of him due to his physical appearance that was not so appealing with deformities diminishing the love for him. Victor wants to accomplish major ideas with being a scientist. Frankenstein had many characteristics of being a great scientist as he had the initiative to study topics such as mathematics moving into accomplishments within discipline. His creation was not only a groundbreaking creation it also showed how much he was involved and infatuated with science. Victor's demeanor contains no justification towards treating his creation the way he did.

After Victor achieves the creation of life by composing body parts together he becomes obsessed with his creation specifically killing it. He neglects the fiend through the countless encounters of love and affection within the book. The fiend decided to make Victor's life a nightmare participating in the death of even his wife, whom he was supposed to love and protect along with many others mentioned. He slowly dies of the sickness that consumes him, asking others to kill his creation for him. The monster causes hectic events and much grief towards Victor's life. His views and intentions toward the monster should not be something that is justified. If Victor solely took his time to get to know and appreciate the fiend it's plausible that events would be different. He did not take time to form a connection with his creation instead leaving him behind alone with no guidance or love. Leading the fiend to turn to destructive ways. Victor is essentially his own downfall as the horrid events have happened because of his own fault.

The “outstretched hand” represents the connection of mortals with God, yet also depicts the power and ability that remains out of reach from humanity. Regardless of human intelligence, complex reasoning, and introspection, human beings don’t possess the power to create those qualities, but only to wield them. The motif not only represents God out of reach, but also his power, knowledge, and wisdom. In chapter four, Victor describes his excitement and enthusiasm after discovering the secret behind the creation of life. It states, “After days and nights of incredible labour and fatigue, I succeeded in discovering the cause of generation and life; nay, more, I became myself capable of bestowing animation upon lifeless matter” (Shelly 47). As shown, Victor couldn’t resist the temptation of applying this knowledge into practice symbolizing his proximity to God. Hypothetically, Victor had the option to “take that hand” for the better, but was determined to use that closeness to God’s power for the sake of superiority, not science, already eliminating all justification for his actions. Moreover, after Victor seizes this power, he visualizes his future, an obscene future. He states, “A new species would bless me as its creator and source; many happy and excellent natures would owe their being to me” (Shelly 48). As shown, Victor came to visualize himself as a God seeking the gratitude of a future creation. His admiration for nature and life created a delusion, a belief that he could become a God and possess the powers of one. However, once in the presence of his creation he was repulsed and when the time came for him to lend that hand to his creation, he refused simply because it did not manifest beauty. It states, “He might have spoken, but I did not hear; one hand was stretched out, seemingly to detain me, but I escaped…” (Shelly 52). Victor didn’t even think about the well-being of his creation like God did, who immediately and selflessly lent that hand to humanity. In time, Victor realized that such a discovery didn’t necessarily mean he had the capability to utilize it. He states, “Learn from me, if not by my precepts, at least by my example, how dangerous is the acquirement of knowledge, and how much happier that man is who believes his native town to be the world, than he who aspires to become greater than his nature will allow” (Shelly 47). In other words, the human mind can only cope with what they understand and can’t resist acknowledging the unknown. Naturally, humans want to comprehend what they encounter to determine whether it represents a threat or not.

As Victor resided at Ingolstadt University, he introduced two particular professors that became a significant impact to his scientific investigation. M. Krempe, a dedicated natural philosophy instructor who embraced the ideals of modernized theories and discoveries, questioned Victor’s learning material and considered his ideals quite ridiculous. It states, “Have you really spent your time in studying such nonsense?” (Shelly 40). As shown, Mr. Krempe has a particular perspective regarding science suggesting that Victor accumulated useless knowledge of forgotten philosophers who are no longer reasonable to consider. Victor felt ridiculed and ashamed of such remarks and as a scientist, I personally expected him to have an open mind and consider learning from modern natural science, but he refused to let go of his knowledge to an extent to probably prove this professor wrong. Furthermore, Victor introduces M. Waldman, who unlike Mr. Krempe considers Victor’s perspective crucial. He states, “...these were men to whose indefatigable zeal modern philosophers were indebted for most of the foundations of their knowledge” (Shelly 43). In other words, it seems the Mr. Waldman acknowledges these ancient philosophers and their limited to none, but significant accomplishments. As a result, Victor decided to listen to Mr. Waldman agreed with his ideals although as a scientist, a realistic and logical thinker, he should have considered Mr. Krumpe's ideals as well. In respect to this, Victor isn’t justified for his actions because he didn’t follow that common scientific ideal of being unbiased towards new discoveries and knowledge.

In Mary Shelly's "Frankenstein", Victor is a scientist, one that has been allured by power from a very young age. He was given life as a gift. Now grown up with the power of science he created life of his own, but only had room in his heart for the first part, and none for the developing of life. He created the Fiend just to feel that power, just because he could, there weren't any good intentions in it. So the fiend became inferior. Victor became obsessed with focussing the powers of science for his personal gain. Although he was a great scientist he didn't put his power into good doings.

In Frankenstein we see an immense shift in Victor’s views, especially regarding the fiend. At first we saw Victor’s heinous obsession in creating life. But when his years of hard work finally saw their fruit, he turned away in horror. Upon seeing his creation Victor shares “...but now that I finished, the beauty of the dream vanished, and breathless horror and disgust filled my heart” (Shelley 51). Victor reveals that his view’s in creating did in fact change what was once his “dream” became his “horror. Furthermore Victor went from wanting to bring the fiend to life to wanting to kill the fiend. Even with Elizabeth, Victor’s views changed. In the beginning we saw Victor regard Elizabeth with admiration and eventually when his mother died he held resentment towards her.

In Mary Shelley's Frankenstein we see that Victor certainly had the drive and dedication that a scientist must have in order to succeed, which he did. However Victor lacked morality and responsibility. Victor recounts the following upon seeing his creation “he might have spoken, but I did not hear; one hand was stretched out seemingly to detain me, but I escaped, and rushed downstairs” (Shelley 52). He was a coward and ran away from his creation. It was Victor’s responsibly to guide the fiend and show him right from wrong. He chose to bring life but turned away and left the fiend to fend for himself.
