Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley's classic novel Frankenstein: or, The Modern Prometheus, first published in 1818, started a phenomeon that has survived the years and permeated many aspects of popular culture. It has spawned numerous films, television programs, books, comics, stage presentations, and the like, and continues to do so today. Like the Frankenstein Monster, this work is made up of many individual parts, some of which are quite different in their specific themes, but all of which relate to Frankenstein in some way. They consider the untold true story of Frankenstein, Glenn Strange's portrayals of the Monster, the portrayals of lesser-known actors who played the character, Peter Cushing and his role as Baron (and Dr.) Frankenstein, the classic film Young Frankenstein co-written by Mel Brooks and Gene Wilder (who also starred in it), the battles between do-gooders and the Monster and other horror figures, Frankenstein in cartoons--and much more. Each of the 15 essays, all written by the author, is prefaced with explanatory notes that place the essay in its historical perspective, comment on its origin and content, and where appropriate, supplement the text with new,...

El verano de 1816, un grupo de jóvenes escritores, entre los que se contaba Mary Shelley, se entregaron a un juego literario que consistía en idear el cuento más espantoso que se pudiera imaginar. Ninguno de los presentes logró completar un buen relato... salvo ella; aquella noche concibió una historia aterradora y maravillosa: Frankenstein. Desde su publicación asombró al mundo y en pocos años adquirió la categoría de «mito moderno». A caballo entre la novela gótica y el relato filosófico, la historia del soberbio científico y su monstruosa creación ha apasionado a varias generaciones de lectores. «Un relato extraordinario, en el que su autor parece revelar poderes poco comunes de imaginació poética. En conjunto, la obra nos impresiona con una alta idea del genio original del autor y su afortunada capacidad de expresión.» Walter Scott «Mary Shelley inventó al monstruo más famosos del mundo y, con él, mandó un mensaje en una botella al futuro.» Jeanette Winterson «El monstruo de Shelley, solitario,...
