Scene Summary and Context Guide
In Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Victor Frankenstein is a young scientist who becomes obsessed with creating life. Using scientific knowledge, he constructs a creature from body parts and brings it to life. As the story progresses, Victor grapples with the consequences of his creation, which leads to tragedy and moral questions about responsibility. This theme of creator versus creation appears in modern pop culture through movies, TV shows, and video games where characters develop artificial beings or clones, often reflecting on the ethical dilemmas and emotional conflicts of the original story. For example, films like 'Ex Machina' and superhero stories involving androids explore similar themes of creation and control. The phrase 'Playing God' is often used to describe these scenarios, highlighting the complex relationship between the creator and their creation.
