Abstract

O presente estudo tem por matéria de análise a obra gótica de Mary Shelley, Frankenstein ou o Prometeu Moderno, datada de 1818. Pretende-se, além da exposição dos grandes temas sobre os quais o romance versa, verificar de que modo nos é permitido encontrar elementos conciliadores entre a obra de Shelley e o mito de Pigmalião.
