Extractions: Mary Shelley (1797-1851): The Last Man Mary Shelley, most famous for her novel Frankenstein , was the daughter of the feminist theorist Mary Wollstonecraft and William Goodwin. She maried the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley and became a member of the circle of young English Romantic writers. The Last Man was written as an expression of her, grief after Shelley's death in 1822. I Awoke in the morning, just as the higher windows of the lofty houses received the first beams of the rising sun. The birds were chirping, perched on the window sills and deserted thresholds of the doors. I awoke, and my first thought was, Adrian and Clara are dead. I no longer shall be hailed by their good-morrow-or pass the long day in their society. I shall never see them more. The ocean has robbed me of them-stolen their hearts of love from their breasts, and given over to corruption what was dearer to me than light, or life, or hope. I was an untaught shepherd-boy, when Adrian deigned to confer on me his friendship. The best years of my life had been passed with him. All I had possessed of this world's goods, of happiness, knowledge, or virtue-I owed to him. He had, in his person , his intellect, and rare qualities, given a glory to my life, which without him it had never known. Beyond all other beings he had taught me, that goodness, pure and single, can be an attribute of man. It was a sight for angels to congregate to behold, to view him lead, govern, and solace, the last days of the human race.

Extractions: On the 200th anniversary of the death and birth, respectively, of writers Mary Wollstonecraft and her daughter Mary Shelley, The New York Public Library is mounting an exhibition about two complicated and creative women who forged independent lives through their work. Visionary Daughters of Albion: A Bicentenary Celebration of Mary Wollstonecraft and Mary Shelley will display their writings and those of the most important people in their literary circles, including early editions, manuscripts, correspondence, and a number of portraits and prints. The exhibition opens May 3 in The Edna Barnes Salomon Room at The New York Public Library's Center for the Humanities at Fifth Avenue and 42nd Street and will remain on view through September 13, 1997. In the summer of 1797, Mary Wollstonecraft, who wrote A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792), died shortly after giving birth to the future Mary Shelley, author of Frankenstein (1818) and wife of the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley. The more than 350 items on display in Visionary Daughters of Albion are drawn mostly from the Library's Carl H. Pforzheimer Collection of Shelley and His Circle, one of the world's leading repositories for the study of English Romanticism.

Extractions: Matilda by Mary Shelley The Pickering Women's Classics Edited by Janet Todd This book brings together three extraordinary novels by an extraordinary pair, Mary Wollstonecraft - radical, feminist and author of A Vindication of the Rights of Woman - and Mary Shelley, her daughter, author of Frankenstein . Although Mary Shelley never knew her mother who died giving birth to her, the concerns of the daughter in Matilda reflect upon the convictions of the mother in Mary and Maria - that women have the right to equality of education and opportunity, to fair treatment in marriage and under the law, and, most controversially, that women have a duty to themselves to reject the trappings and false allure of traditional definitions of femininity and embrace a richer, wider notion of womanhood. Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797) is generally recognised as the mother of the feminist movement. She expressed her ideas in her first novel, Mary, a Fiction

Extractions: N ovelista inglesa, hija del filósofo británico William Godwin y de la escritora y feminista Mary Wollstonecraft. Nació en Londres y recibió una educación privada. Conoció al joven poeta Percy Bysshe Shelley en mayo de 1814 y dos meses más tarde abandonó Inglaterra con él. Cuando la primera esposa de Shelley murió, en diciembre de 1816, la pareja contrajo matrimonio. En 1818 Mary publicó la primera y más importante de sus obras, la novela Frankenstein o el moderno Prometeo . Esta obra, un logro más que notable para una autora de sólo 20 años, se convirtió de inmediato en un éxito de crítica y público. La historia de Frankenstein, estudiante de lo oculto y de su criatura subhumana creada a partir de cadáveres humanos, ha sido llevada al teatro y al cine en varias ocasiones. Ninguna de sus obras posteriores alcanzó la popularidad o la excelencia de esta primera, pese a que escribió otras cuatro novelas, varios libros de viajes, relatos y poemas. Su novela El último hombre (1826), considerada lo mejor de su producción, narra la futura destrucción de la raza humana por una terrible plaga. Lodore (1835) es una autobiografía novelada. Tras la muerte de su esposo, en 1822, Mary se dedicó a difundir la obra del poeta. Publicó así sus Poemas póstumos (1824) y editó sus Obras poéticas (1839) con valiosas y detalladas notas. ©

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/masterpiece/wives/writers/shelley.html

Extractions: A number of feminist critics read Mary Shelley's Frankenstein as an elaborate metaphor for childbirth. They draw on the links between creativity and birth that the novel suggests, but it is true that Shelley was physically concerned with birth during the year that Frankenstein was written: She gave birth to a son six months before she began the novel, and completed it four months before the birth of a daughter. Stories of the novel's origins are often rendered in terms of birth as well: Shelley "conceived" Frankenstein on a challenge from Lord Byron and her husband, Percy Bysshe Shelley, to tell the most frightening ghost story. What Mary Shelley produced was not so much a ghost story as a meditation on the dangers of genius and creativity, and of man's responsibility to his own creations, and to the world into which he introduces them. Shelley was the daughter of the radicals William Godwin and Mary Wollstonecraft, both of whom sought to reform European society by means of ideas generated by the French Revolution. Wollstonecraft died shortly after giving birth to her daughter, but the young Mary read all of her mother's writings by the age of 10. Her unorthodox upbringing owed much to the philosophy of Godwin (although he was at times a remote figure in her childhood), whose deeply held belief that the individual has "absolute sovereignty" over himself found numerous adherents among contemporary Romantics. In fact, it was through Percy Shelley's connection to Godwin that Mary met her future husband.

Extractions: M ary Wollstonecraft Shelley was the daughter of Mary Wollstonecraft and William Godwin, the wife of Percy Bysshe Shelley , and the author of one of the most widely read and often redacted novels of the past two centuries. Frankenstein; or, the Modern Prometheus was born out of a series of conversations she had during the summer of 1816 with Percy Shelley, Lord Byron, and Dr. John Polidori. Mary cites conversations between Shelley and Byron about Erasmus Darwin ("they talked about the experiments of Dr. Darwin ") and Luigi Galvani ("perhaps a corpse would be re-animated; galvanism had given token of such things") as sources for her own idea of a reanimated human ("perhaps the component parts of a creature might be manufactured, brought together, and endued with vital warmth") in her introduction to the 1831 edition of the novel (first edition 1818). When asked to explain why he has created a monstrous life form (one that would eventually destroy him), Mary's Victor Frankenstein offers an explanation based on the concept of "species." "A new species would bless me as its creator," he says to Captain Walton in the opening pages of the novel. Mary clearly sees this attempt to create life as connected to the creation of a species. Of course, Victor does not really create a new species at all; he creates a hybrid, a human being composed of the parts of other humans and other animals, since some of his raw materials come from the "slaughterhouse." Mary's creature presumably lacks a soul, at least in the minds of most of her 1818 readers. But when Victor considers the "race of demons" that might populate the world if he goes through with his plan to create a female companion for the "wretch," he clearly places

The fame of British author Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley (17971851) rests entirelyupon her single novel Frankenstein, or the Modern Prometheus (1818).
http://wondersmith.com/scifi/shelley.htm

Extractions: Biographical notes by Blake Wilfong "The labours of men of genius, however erroneously directed, scarcely ever fail in ultimately turning to the solid advantage of mankind." There is a joke that goes, "Define universe . Give two examples." A similar joke might be, "Who was Mary Shelley? Name two of her works." The fame of British author Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley (1797-1851) rests entirely upon her single novel Frankenstein, or the Modern Prometheus (1818). Indeed, Frankenstein is possibly the first full-fledged science fiction novel, and Mary Shelley the real "father" of the genre. Thanks to endless Hollywood movie adaptationswhich, albeit untrue to the book, are much more entertaining Frankenstein has become a cultural icon. Actually, Shelley did write other works, including more SF. Her 1826 novel The Last Man , set in the late 21st century, describes the downfall of mankind through war and plague. Some of her short stories are tales of the fantastic, and a couple qualify as science fiction. Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley was born in London to philosopher William Godwin and author/feminist Mary Wollstonecraft. At the age of 16, she eloped with poet Percy Bysshe Shelley to Europe; they married after his first wife's suicide in 1816. Through her husband, Mary met Lord Byron, whose suggestion that she write a ghost story inspired her to conceive

Extractions: Shelley, Mary Wollstonecraft, geborene Godwin, (1797-1851) Englische Romanautorin. Sie wuchs als Tochter des britischen Philosophen William Godwin und der Schriftstellerin und Feministin Mary Wollstonecraft in London auf und erhielt intensiven Privatunterricht. Die entscheidende Begegnung in ihrem Leben wurde jene mit dem romantischen Dichter Percy Bysshe Shelley im Mai 1814. Er führte sie in den Kreis romantischer Literaten um Lord Byron ein und heiratete sie nach dem Tod seiner ersten Frau 1816. Häufige, ausgedehnte Auslandsaufenthalte und die Gesellschaft bedeutender Persönlichkeiten des Kulturlebens erweiterten den ohnehin beachtlichen Bildungshorizont der jungen Frau, die 1818 mit dem Roman "Frankenstein, or the modern Prometheus" "Frankenstein, oder der moderne Prometheus" ) einen Klassiker der phantastischen Literatur schuf. Bezüglich des Motivinventars und der Darstellung des Unheimlichen steht Shelleys Werk deutlich im Kontext der zeitgenössischen phantastischen Novelle und des Schauerromans . Das Thema des künstlichen Menschen entstammt dem Ideenkomplex der romantischen Transzendental- und Naturphilosophie und streift in einigen Aspekten (wie der Elektrisierung" des Monsters) auch einen Grenzbereich der wissenschaftlichen Medizin, die von Franz Anton Mesmer begründete Theorie des "animalischen Magnetismus" . Der Erziehungsprozeß des Monsters nach seiner Flucht wiederum rekapituliert die zivilisatorische Entwicklungsgeschichte der Menschheit und basiert auf pädagogischen Idealen der Aufklärung . Diese philosophischen Dimensionen des Romans werden aber naturgemäß von der Faszination des Schrecklichen überdeckt. Das Buch wurde ein Sensationserfolg beim zeitgenössischen Publikum und in späteren Jahren mehrmals verfilmt. Am bekanntesten ist die Version mit
