Think about how men and women interact in Mary Shelley’s gothic novel Frankenstein. Based on what you read in the novel how do you think men and women associated with each other during the romantic period (between the late eighteenth century and early nineteenth century) when the book was written and published? How might this reflect the way men and women interacted and what they might have expected of or idealized about each other at the time that Frankenstein was written?
