Frankenstein Explained by Ryan Kelly
Victor Frankenstein was seeking the knowledge of bringing a human to life, by sending electrically currents through the body. This knowledge was forbidden because only God should be making human beings not scientists. I think it was worth it because he could have have created new people and made history of bringing people to life by electrical currents through the body. "Life and death appeared to me ideal bounds, which I should first break through, and pour a torrent of light into our dark world." -Victor, Ch. 4. this quote is important because he wants to be the first one to break through and know he is like God because he can create a human once he breaks through on making a human.
