What was the name of Dr. Frankenstein's monster from the author Mary Shelley?
539470
The creature – "my hideous progeny" – was not given a name by Mary Shelley, and is only referred to as "The Monster", "The Creature" and "Frankenstein's Monster", or as Victor Frankenstein called his creation more commonly, "The Fiend." As mentioned above, in popular use the monster itself is often mistakenly called Frankenstein, particularly in film titles such as Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein, although in one film featuring the creature, 2004's Van Helsing, the Monster is directly referred to by the name Frankenstein on screen.

The only one I can think of off the top of my head is Joseph Conrad, although I am sure there are others.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Conrad

They both created a monster.\n\nDr. Jekyll became a monster himself;\nFrankenstein made one from parts of dead bodies.

Mary Shelley subtitled her novel "The Modern Prometheus." According to the Greeks, Prometheus stole fire from the gods. As punishment, he was chained to a rock, where an eagle each day plucked at his liver. Prometheus sought fire for human betterment--to make tools and warm hearts. Similarly, Mary Shelley's arrogant scientist, Victor Frankenstein, claimed "benevolent intentions, and thirsted for the moment when I should put them in practice." Frankenstein endures not only because of its infamous horrors but for the richness of the ideas it asks us to confront--human accountability, social alienation, and the nature of life itself.

It is from H.P. Lovecrafts book "Circus Maximus" loosely based on Sumerian numerology cults from his Cthulu series.  To make a long story short, the redheaded stepchild was a circus freak that no one liked. \n\nIf you are an X Files fan, you can read H.P. Lovecrafts work and discover that is where a large portion of their material comes from.\n\nHope that helps.

Well... I think we have to get our terms straight here. Frankenstein was a fictional doctor and researcher somewhere in Central Europe (perhaps what is now Romania) in a story written in France by a young British woman on a vacation which included the poets Shelley and Lord Byron. It all happened early in the 1800s, before Shelly drowned.\n\nSo, F wasn't a monster. In the story, he created a creature which was either a monster or misunderstood, depending on how you take the story. Assorted movies and other books have taken it all possible ways by now. Including one by Mel Brooks. \n\nAnd, since F supposedly lived about 1800, neither he nor the creature (fictional though they both be) were even alive (in iagination) 1 000 000 000 years ago. In fact, no humans actually lived then, nor any mammals nor reptiles nor dinosaurs nor birds no, if memeory serves, insects nor trees nor grass nor ... If there was life then, it was probably limited to micro-organisms which have left no fossils to be studied.\n\nYou might want to look up the age of the Earth to see how long ago in its life was 1 000 000 000 years ago. \n\nFrankenstein's monster (or creature or whatever) was promptly taken to be a warning about the possible downside of all that science and mechanical changes that had been occurring for more than a hundred years in 1800, and have added not only another 200 years, but sped up  up considerably since then. Many artists and writers have taken the metaphor seriously and have written quite a lot using it as an analytic tool. \n\n========\nmodern developments of science and engineering\n\nAnd indeed, the progress in our understanding of the physical universe, and our increased ability to control it which sometimes follows an increase of understanding, have brought up some new dangers. Engineering managed to produce atomic weapons after 50 years of increasing understanding of submicroscopic particles and their nature. \n\nWe are still coping with this today, more than 60 years afterwards. The effort to prevent the spread of these weapons has been slowly fraying for some time. The French, the Russians, the Pakistanis, the Indians, the Chinese, and probably both the Israelis and the South Africans, have all developed nuclear weapons, although the practicality of their various warheads and delivery systems are rather debatable. \n\nQuite a number of writers have used the Frankenstein story as an organizing motif in their accounts of the dangers and reasons for the dangers of having nuclear weapons in the hands of any nations, much less Third World nations somewhat controlled by religious or ethnic factions who may demand their use in a territorial dispute. \n\nBut, there is a problem here. Artists and writers are rarely good sources for a clear understanding of science and engineering. when they attempt to analyze and predict things scientific or engineering, they often get themselves considerably tangled up. A recent example is a spoof article written by Alan Sokal, a professor of physics at NYU, and submitted to a journal of advanced thought, Social Text. The article was well done of its type, and was complete and utter and deliberate nonsense. The editors and their reviewers couldn't see that, though, and it was accepted for publication. Sokal held a press conference announcing the hoax the day that issue of the magazine hit the street. Its editors continued for some time to defend their decision to publish it, despite the intended hoax. Their public explanations of why it was fine to publish the article even if it were a deliberate hoax are astonishing. And, if honest and not merely damage control via an attempt to guide the media spin, are evidence of rather considerable cluelessness. \n\nScience and engineering require a certain amount of intellectual apprenticeship before one becomes competent to really have an opinion. Short of that, everyone is very much as I would be if asked a question about quilting technique. Al

Do you mean Lord Byron? His daughter's name is Ada. \n\nIn 1815, partly to escape an incestuous relationship with his married half-sister, Byron married the prim Annabella Milbanke Noel (1792-1860), whom he'd known primarily through letters. After giving birth to a daughter, the remarkable Augusta Ada who in collaboration with Charles Babbage became the first person ever to write a computer program. Ada was Byron's only legitimate child; Annabella left Byron before Ada was born. Her departure was bitter, and amid more controversy Byron fled England once again.\n\n\nHe also had a daughter named Allegra with Claire Clairmont\n\nAllegra died in early childhood\n\nI hope this helps =-)

I believe the song you are looking for is "Frankenstein" by the Edgar Winter Group.\n\nThe Edgar Winter Group is a 1970s rock band founded by Edgar Winter.\nNotable former members include guitarists Ronnie Montrose (who left to form Montrose in 1973) and Rick Derringer, and pop singer Dan Hartman (who left for a solo career in 1975).\nAmong the group's songs are the hits "Frankenstein" and "Free Ride", both from the 1972 album They Only Come Out at Night.\n\nHere's a link with the guitar tab:\n\nhttp://www.ultimate-guitar.com/print.php?what=tab&id=35092\n\nHope this helps.

Dean Koontz's The Door to December. There' an English book from the 70's I read... I can't remember the author but it's called Parasite. Don't know of any nonfiction though.
