Prometheus is insolent to Zeus, the king of the gods. He wanted to show Zeus that the gods' disregard for humans was cruel and unjust. Victor and Prometheus'  desire for power contributed to their impudence.]]> 2016-11-14 21:57:37 UTC https://padlet.com/jmunshi0910/qlr0wk589fx5/wish/137566985 jmunshi0910 https://padlet.com/jmunshi0910/qlr0wk589fx5/wish/137568386 "What had once been the study and desire of the wisest men since the creation of the world was now within my grasp" (Shelley 53).]]> 2016-11-14 22:05:37 UTC https://padlet.com/jmunshi0910/qlr0wk589fx5/wish/137568386 jmunshi0910 https://padlet.com/jmunshi0910/qlr0wk589fx5/wish/137568705 "Mankind shall have fire in spite of the tyrant who sits on top of the mountain."]]> 2016-11-14 22:07:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jmunshi0910/qlr0wk589fx5/wish/137568705 jmunshi0910 https://padlet.com/jmunshi0910/qlr0wk589fx5/wish/137570935 Frankenstein's isolation from his family and peers occurs when he creates the monster, and again when his creation begin killing people. Prometheus' isolation developed when he decided to trick Zeus and help the humans. Both characters' isolation brought them closer and closer to their eventual deaths. ]]> 2016-11-14 22:22:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jmunshi0910/qlr0wk589fx5/wish/137570935 jmunshi0910 https://padlet.com/jmunshi0910/qlr0wk589fx5/wish/137571046 "I avoided explanation and maintained a continual silence concerning the wretch I created" (Shelley 201).
