Résumé ou Introduction
Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein is an epistolary novel; a number of texts are seen pervasively throughout the book, both within and out with the narrative structure. The texts that most predominantly come to mind are the many letters sent between characters such as Captain Walton and his sister, Margaret, journals and books. This preoccupation with ‘authors’ and ‘readers’ in the narrative can be seen in many instances and as part of a frame structure that Shelley uses in the novel. As my point of departure, I shall begin with looking at the role that the Monster plays as a ‘reader’.
