瑪麗•雪萊(1797—1851)
英國著名小說傢,以《弗蘭肯斯坦》聞名於世,被譽為“科幻小說之母”。生於書香門第,父親是哲學傢,母親是激進的女權主義者。瑪麗•雪萊後與浪漫主義詩人珀西•雪萊私奔。創作《弗蘭肯斯坦》時年僅十九歲。
"I saw the pale student of unhallowed arts kneeling beside the thing he had put together. I saw the hideous phantasm of a man stretched out, and then, on the working of some powerful engine, show signs of life and stir with an uneasy, half-vital motion." A summer evening's ghost stories, lonely insomnia in a moonlit Alpine's room, and a runaway imagination--fired by philosophical discussions with Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley about science, galvanism, and the origins of life--conspired to produce for Marry Shelley this haunting night specter. By morning, it had become the germ of her Romantic masterpiece, Frankenstein .
Written in 1816 when she was only nineteen, Mary Shelley's novel of "The Modern Prometheus" chillingly dramatized the dangerous potential of life begotten upon a laboratory table. A frightening creation myth for our own time, Frankenstein remains one of the greatest horror stories ever written and is an undisputed classic of its kind.

評分 評分一個完美的人,應該始終保持平靜、沉著的心緒,任何時候都不該讓熱情衝動或一時的欲念擾亂心地的安寜。我想,探求知識時也不應該偏離這一準則。如果一個人從事的研究工作,竟會削弱自己對彆人的愛,敗壞自己的生活情趣,無意去領受那種不摻雜任何雜質的純樸的人生樂趣,那麼,...

He became a creature from my worst nightmares.
評分讀這本書有很強的帶入感。似乎是命定的故事。有人不喜歡裏麵一直存在的壓抑狀態。不過我卻願意一直讀下去,體會這種孤獨和悲愴。這是自我幻想的一種可能性吧。也是很多人的可能性。
評分略顯過時
評分賦予他人類的心智卻連自己也不接受他駭人的外貌,怎麼能說是高尚的人呢?說到底,為什麼一開始的時候造的他那麼醜陋?
