Frankenstein’s Good And Evil Sides The dual representation of the human psyche is, perhaps, the most frequently occurring theme in Mary Shelley’s novels and Frankenstein in particular. The novel discloses a keen interest in exploring the secret rooms of the human soul and mind. Applying various psychological techniques, Mary Shelley depicts society as a balance of good and evil, demonstrating how each of its members has his/her “monsters”, which are encaged within the unconscious mind. The relationships between Victor and the Creature constitute the main contradiction of the novel. Hence, the creature is a concealed antagonistic representation of Victor’s inner world and societal problems; it is also both a denial and recognition of Victor’s desires. As a whole, this duality is disclosed as the good and the evil potential in each persona in the form of denial and acceptance. On the one hand, Victor’s desire to create the creature is narrowed to his search for an alter ego, a human that would satisfy all of his social and communication needs: “I desire the company of a man who could sympathize with me; whose eyes could reply to mine” (Shelley 19). On the other hand, Victor also intends to find a way to repair the faults he has committed in his life. The result of emotional instability uncovers his real psychological problems. His creation, which is initially meant to be a good and sympathizing being, was literary converted into a monster as the result of Victor’s rejection. The rest of the novel refers to a nameless creature who is simply addressed as “the monster” [O1] and the one, who is created by Victor. In the original text, Victor often calls his creation “the monster” that is interwoven with the word “child”, “Creature”; hence those names reveal Victor’s psychological nature In this way, it is not a far stretch to consider the creature both as Victor’s alter ego and as a cover for his inner thoughts. Therefore, we often personify this monster – that kills Victor’s wife, nephew, and friends and, who indirectly kills Victor himself – with its creator (Burley and Harris 128). Hence, the Creature is the reverse side of Frankenstein’s personality; at the same time, both protagonists compose the polar elements that shape a mental entity. This literary duality is revealed through the law of unity and struggle of opposites where the creator embodies Victor’s pure madness and freedom, which are out of control, as he always neglected moral principles and rules. Victor, who is restricted to social prejudices, uses the monster for compensating for his desire to be a full-fledged member of society. [O2] The novel reveals, hence, how one creates an alter ego for him/herself to set free his/her released passions. Therefore, Frankenstein is also presented as the antagonist of good society by manifesting and personifying the worst character traits of each human[O3]. We despise the worst traits of our character and by this, we are also subjected to absurd prejudices of society[O4]. The problem lies in the fact that there is a slight distinction between veritable vices and the ones created by rejection. Hence, Victor hates his Creature but for another reason. “[He] declared everlasting war against the species, and more than all, against [the monster] who formed [him] and sent [him] forth to this insupportable misery” (Shelley 95). By comparing and rejecting at the same time, the Creature als
