This episode of the Frankenstein Revision Masterclass explores gender roles and the silencing of women, a theme central to A Level exams. While Victor, Walton and the Creature dominate with unreliable narratives, Elizabeth, Justine and Safie are reduced to victims, symbols or second-hand voices.
We connect AO1 knowledge of key events with AO2 analysis of silenced voices, AO3 context from Wollstonecraft and Gothic tradition, and AO5 feminist and psychoanalytic readings to show how Shelley critiques patriarchy and how you can use this in high-level answers.
