Plan for thematic analysis of Procreation in Frankenstein with a comparison to The Handmaid’s Tale.
- Creation of Life: Traditional parent and child imagery
- Gothic Doubling: Relationships tied together through birth and death as well as suicide
- Power: God and the Creator figure. Transgression of the moral, natural and social order in both texts
- Power: Agency in writer as creation. Feminine subversion of the novel form
