please help, will fan and medal! How do Mary Shelley's allusions to Milton's Paradise Lost in the novel Frankenstein help readers interpret the story? They contrast Victor’s creation with God's creation of man. They suggest a lack of willpower in Victor to create something. They imply that the creature is free from guilt for its actions. They emphasize the creature's inability to survive on its own.

I might be able to help. I will have to do slight research because I am unfamiliar with Milton's Paradise Lost.

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

Yes, I would agree. Because it is taking the creation of Frankenstein as a monster, evil to the people, thus contrasting this to the humans God had created with His own hand, as being more mortal, more kind.
