The subtitle of Frankenstein is “The Modern Prometheus.” Prometheus is a character of Greek mythology who defies the gods in order to pursue knowledge and suffers serious consequences. Like Prometheus, Frankenstein chooses to defy nature by using his scientific knowledge to create life and, in the process, gives life to a mutant being. Both Prometheus and Frankenstein are ultimately punished for their defiance. Their stories are allegories that convey the idea that those who intentionally defy divine or natural law bring serious consequences upon themselves and others.
