Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus by Mary Shelley is indeed a cornerstone of both Gothic literature and early science fiction. Published in 1818, it tells the story of Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant but obsessive scientist who creates life through an unorthodox experiment, only to be horrified by the monster he brings into existence. The novel explores profound themes of ambition, isolation, hubris, and the consequences of playing God.

Frankenstein has had a profound impact on the development of science fiction, inspiring countless adaptations and reinterpretations in various media, including films, plays, and novels. The character of Frankenstein's monster, often misunderstood and portrayed as a mindless creature, has become a cultural icon, symbolizing the dangers of unchecked scientific experimentation and the moral dilemmas of creating life.

The novel’s influence extends far beyond its original context. It has sparked debates about the ethics of scientific exploration, human nature, and the boundaries of technology—issues that remain deeply relevant today, especially as advances in fields like genetic engineering and artificial intelligence continue to push the boundaries of what is possible.
