Mary Shelley 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. ©

MARY WOLLSTONECRAFT SHELLEY SHELLEY, MARY WOLLSTONECRAFT (1797-1851), English writer, only daughter of William Godwin and his wife Mary Wollstonecraft, and second wife of the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley, was born in London on the 3oth of August 1797. For the history of her girlhood and of her married life see GoDwIN, WILLIAM, and SHELLEY, P.B. When she was in Switzerland with Shelley and Byron in 1816 a proposal was made that various members of the party should write a romance or tale dealing with the supernatural. The result of this project was that Mrs Shelley wrote Frankenstein, Byron the beginning of a narrative about a vampyre, and Dr Polidori, Byrons physician, a tale named The Vam pyre, the authorship of which used frequently It is further worthy of remark that the young of C. variegata when first hatched closely resemble those of C. rutila, and when the former assume their first plumage they resemble their father more than their mother (P.Z.S., 1866, p. 150). in past years to be attributed to Byron himself. Frankenstein, published in 18g8, when Mrs Shelley was at the utmost twenty-one years old, is a very remarkable performance for so young and inexperienced a writer; its main idea is that of the formation and vitalization, by a deep student of the secrets of nature, of an adult man, who, entering the world thus under unnatural conditions, becomes the terror of his species, a halfinvoluntary criminal, ,and finally an outcast whose sole resource is self-immolation. This romance was followed by others:

M ary Wollstonecraft Shelley FRANKENSTEIN Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley (1797-1851) is waarschijnlijk het best bekend om horror verhaal Frankenstein. Mary werd geboren in 1797 als enige dochter van filosoof en schrijver William Godwin en zijn vrouw Mary Wollstonecraft, een feministische schrijfster, wier boeken vaak stof deden opwaaien. Haar jeugd brengt ze door met het schrijven of lezen van verhalen of wegdromend in haar eigen fantasiewereldje. Het is deze gewoonte van al dagdromend luchtkastelen te bouwen die later aan de grondslag zal liggen van haar beroemdste werk. Villa Diodati aan het meer van Genève De eerste woorden van dit verhaal schreef Shelley in 1816, toen zij samen met haar echtgenoot verbleef in Villa Diodati aan het meer van Genève. Ze vertoefden in het gezelschap van Lord Byron, diens lijfarts dr. Polidori en Claire Clairmont, haar stiefzus en Byrons minnares. Door het slechte weer genoodzaakt binnenshuis te blijven, besloten de achttienjarige Mary, haar echtgenoot Percy, hun buurman Lord Byron en nog wat gezelschap als tijdverdrijf elk een spookverhaal te bedenken. Door de gesprekken daarover, een recente miskraam en de toen zeer tot de verbeelding sprekende ontdekking van de Italiaanse natuurkundige Luigi Galvani dat een kikkerpoot door een electrische spanning gaat bewegen, droomde Mary 's nachts de plot van haar latere roman: de wetenschapper Frankenstein die een uit lichaamsdelen van dode mensen opgebouwd monster door electrische ontladingen tot leven brengt, waarna het monster aan de controle van zijn schepper ontsnapt. Het thema is een combinatie van het alchimistische streven naar macht over leven en dood:

Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley (1797-1851) 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

Biography Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley (1797-1851) Mary is born in Somers Town, Great Britain, in 1797 to well-known parents: author and feminist Mary Wollstonecraft and philosopher William Godwin . Unfortunately, Wollstonecraft dies as the result of Mary's birth. Mary is therefore raised by her father and a much resented stepmother. When Mary is sixteen she meets the young poet Percy Bysshe Shelley , a devotee of her father's teachings. Together with Mary's stepsister, they run off to continental Europe several times, not hindered by the fact that Shelley was already married. In 1816, they go abroad again, this time spending time with Byron and his friend Polidori in Geneva. There Byron suggests that they should all write a ghost story. Mary writes Frankenstein , the only story of the four that was ever to be published as a novel. Later that same year, Percy's wife drowns herself: Percy and Mary marry in December 1816. The last years of married life are filled with disaster for Mary. Her half sister dies as do two of her children. Mary becomes depressed, a tendency she probably inherited from her mother. She is only partly relieved by the birth of Percy, their only surviving child. Mary and Percy eventually move to Italy where Percy drowns during a sailing trip in 1822. Mary is determined to keep the memory of her late husband alive. She publishes several editions of Percy's writings and adds notes and prefaces to them.
