3) My first impression of the monster is that he is accepting.
From “Beautiful… not like a human being. But we have our owen beauty”. Through this quote I can tell that the Monster shows that he is trying to accept his brides appearance, he understands the concpet of “beauty” and how he tries to find the beauty of his bride despite her appearance. Even if his bride was “not like a human being” he still manages to try and accept his brides beauty.

Additionally, from “A companion! Don’t worry, man. We’ll go off into the wilderness together, and we’ll live in peace and kindness”, we see how the Monster wants to make a future with the bride despite her appearance.

Hence, we see how the monster is accepting his bride despite her appearence and tries to find her beauty. Not discriminating her by her appearence.

From “But I am good. I want to love them, not hurt, not kill.”, the Monster was inherently kind but he was being mistreated. This shows that the monster’s true intention was not understood by others.
From “Men see me, they hurt me - dogs - they shout, they throw stones”, the word “see” shows that the people and the dogs judges him based on his appearance and think that he was evil.

Point: My impression of the monster is that he is assertive.

Evidence: From “another attack. This time Clerval falls, and the monster bends down and snatches the knife from him.”

Analysis: Through this qoute,the monster shows his assertive  nature from the word “snatches” we can show the forceful action of the monster. He concluded to use violence and not reasoning, taking action immediately,hurting Clerval in the process.

Evidence: Additionally, from “I’m to quick and to strong for you”

Analysis: This shows the assertive nature towards Clerval. Threatening to hurt him, by intimidating him with his physical abilities.

My impression of the Monster is that he is desperate. From “Still turning the wheel with one hand, he reaches down and picks up the last loose wire”. Through this quote, Monster shows that he is very desperate. The word ‘Still’ shows that he is still trying to save his bride even though he knows that his bride might not come back to life. Additionally, from “Faster and faster, the Monster turns the wheel, groaning with effort”. We see how the Monster is giving it his all just to save his bride. Hence, we see how the monster is desperate to save his bride.

my impression of the monster is that he is obsessive of his bride. “[howling] Live! Live!” this evidence shows that begging and hoping that his bride would live. the word “howling” signifies how desperate the monster is to see his bride alive as he is dolefully crying that his bride lives. “…  as the monster and his bride cling together in a desperate embrace…” the word “cling” shows that the monster did not want to let his bride go until she comes back alive, he was clinging onto her in a protective manner, showing how obsessive he is. “… she’s mine…” this evidence shows that he is obsessive and only wants the bride to belong to him and him only. therefore, my impression of the monster is that he is obsessive of the bride.

The Monster is miserable and he is suffering. From the epilogue, “I shall go north until I can go no further, and then I’ll set fire to my sledge and lie down in the flames until my bones have turned into ashes.” The Monster wants to end his life so badly to the point he wants to burn and kill himself, showing that the life he is living in is unbearable and has given up on trying. “I hope I have no soul” shows us that he wants to end his life because he thinks that ending his life will end all the miserable things happening to him and he desperately wants to stop all of it from continuing. Therefore, he is suffering so much that he wants to end his miserable life.

From “The Monster’s eyes follow him, as if confused,” we can see how naive and unfamiliar he is to the environment through the word “confused”. As he is new to his surroundings, he has not been exposed to the harsh real world, showing that he is  inherently kind as he is curious to his surroundings and wants to understand it, not to immediately destroy the environment he is in. From “ The Monster stands there, swaying” shows how vulnerable and innocent he is. The word “swaying” shows how the Monster is trying to find his balance and is unable to walk properly, just like a newborn baby that has not been fully developed yet and is still adjusting to the real world. This gives an impression of Monster as innocent and vulnerable just like a newborn baby.

Act 3
My impression of the Monster in this passage is that he is lonely. From, “Give me a mate — a wife — a friend, and we shall leave you alone forever.” Through this quote, this tells me that the Monster does not care who his companion is, only desires a creature by his side. The repetition, “ a mate—a wife— a friend” proves his desperation to get a companion. Additionally, “Foxes - bears - wolves have their mates ; every birds has its partner; even rats and mice have their nests, their homes, their families… am i to be the only creature in the universe doomed to live alone?” From the quote, Monster elaborates how even the loneliest of creatures in nature are able to meet their mate and are able to share their companionship with one another. This way, Monster shares how unfathomable it is that even the lowest of animals manage to share their love to their families and mates. Hence, we see how Monster is lonely due to being the only creature of his kind on Earth with no companion by his side.

My impression of the monster is that he is intimidating. As seen from the passage, “Be silent”. Through this quote, the monster can be seen trying to bring his point across without Frakenstein’s interuption. We can see how the monster’s tone can be seen as commanding which leaves Frakenstein with no other option than to obligate. We can compare this quote with “Can you please be quiet?” Which is gives off a more civil and friendlier tone rather than a harsh command. This can also be seen through, “ Monster holds (Frakenstein) back”. This action of holding back Frakenstein can come across as harsh and rough. Monster holds frakenstein back from seeing William’s dead body as he wants to bring across his point and does not want an emotional outburst in frakenstein. This emotional outburst would be a distraction to the Monster commanding tone. Monster wants Frakenstein to understand his explanation and justification for the murder of William, so he needed Frakenstein’s complete attention. Without this complete attention, frakenstein’s impressionn of monster would worsen which may cause frakenstein to show more hatred towards the monster even though monster was trying to emphasize his good side. Hence, this action of holding him back can come across as intimidating. Therefore, we see how monster may appear as intimidating because of his action of holding back frakenstein and telling him to, “be silent” in a commanding tone.

It is from act 4
My impression of the monster is that he is evil. From “I’ll see you freeze and starve and suffer.” Through this quote, the monster shows that he enjoys Frankensteins suffering as he follows the monster everywhere he goes even the “barren mountains, the deserts and the ice-fields.” From how he says that Frankenstein would suffer, we see that the monster wants Frankenstein to die a slow and painful death by chasing him around the world. Additionally, from “Yes. Destroyer I shall be. I shall destroy you, my creator.” We can see the the Monster has accepted the fact that he was considered a murderer. The monster is willing to destroy his own creator for making the monster suffer on his own as Frankenstein was unsatisfied with his creation. Hence, we see how the monster is evil because he was willing to see Frankenstein freeze, starve and suffer, and willing to destroy his own creator.

From "Murderer! Destroyer! My bride - you've killed my bride -", the Monster is throwing the same accusation Victor had thrown against him in Act 3. This reveals how the Monster finally understands what Victor had felt. His rage is evident here by the names he hurled at Clerval - supplemented with exclamation marks - to emphasize on his angry tone. This thus reveals how desperate the Monster is, where he repeatedly cries out mournfully for his "bride".
From "You shall live! You shall live! Feverishly he tries to connect the wires up again. Where do they go? Where do they go? Frankenstein, Frankenstein!" We see how the Monster's turn of rage into desperation is evident. The Monster repeats his words twice as he tries to bring his bride back to life. The emphasis on "shall" in italics underlines his sheer determination to make it happen no matter what. As he struggles to make sense of what went wrong, his distorted rage is seen by his calling for Victor to help -
repeatedly. That he calls himself to be better than mankind can also be ironic here, as we see the vulnerability of Monster in being unable to recreate the experiment to bring his bride back to life; instead he is ultimately still reliant on Victor to help him. Hence, we see the Monster's desperation for his bride here, where through his speech and action, we see how frantic he is to keep his bride alive.
