Reading a few passages from this book, I had found some characters. I would like to write their main traits. The main character of this book is the narator-Victor Frankenstein.He was by birth a Genevese.He was the eldest child in the family and he was born at Naples.For several years he remained his father and mother's only child and their only care.Victor's temper was to avoid a crowd and to attach himself fervently to a few,he also was indifferent,therefore,to his schoolfellows in general; but,however,he found a friend,who became his closest friend among his schoolfellows.His name was Henry Clerval.Victor's temper was also sometimes violent,and his passions vehement.Victor's lords of imagination were Cornelius Agrippa,Albertus Magnus and Paracelsus whose works he procured,he read and studied the wild fancies of these writers with delight.
Another character I had found is Victor's father.His father filled several public situations with honour and reputation.He was respected by all who knew him for this integrity and indefatigable attention to public business.His father loved his most intimate friend-Beaufort with the truest friendship.Then,he was taking care of Beaufort's daughter-Caroline Beaufort,but lately they married.There was a considerable differences between the ages of them.His father was fond of playing with Victor in the hall of their villa.Together with Victor's mother they were fond of the sweet orphans.
The next character is Victor's mother whose name is Caroline Beaufort.She possesed a mind of an uncommon mould and her courage rose to support her in her adversity when her father died.Together with her father,they lived in misery and despair.The entering in the cottages of the poor was more than a duty,a necessity for her.
Another character is Elizabeth Lavenza.She became the inmate of Victor's parents house.She was Victor's more than sister,she was the beautiful and adored companion of all his occupations and his pleasures.His parents adopted her because they were fond of her.Everyone loved her.Victor's mother presented Elizabeth to him as her gift.They called each other familiarly by the name of cousin.There was not quite a year difference in their ages.Elizabeth was of a calmer and more concentrated disposition.
The last character from the passages I've read is Victor's brother. He was his junior by seven years.In the moment when he was born,their parents gave up entirely their wandering life and fixed themselves in their native country.
My dear Alina,your post is really great,I thought it must be shorter so mine is very different from yours.I like very much your attitude to the characters,I see you like them.I hope you will receive my coment,I can't understand why my previous one isn't visible.I am so disappointed...

ȘtergereDid you like Victor's passionate temper???
RăspundețiȘtergereMy dear teacher I can't say that I admire very much Victor's personality,but I liked a little his temper,it is something interesting for me))In my opinion,he was interested in very hard and strange things and his deciding to creature a monster is also very strange.Why did he decided to creat it?I think that I will find the answer to my question during the reading of this novel.That's all))Bye!
