Frankenstein or the modern Prometheus, or simply Frankenstein, is a literary work of the English writer Mary Shelley. Published on January 1, 1818 and framed in the tradition of the Gothic novel, the text deals with issues such as scientific morality, the creation and destruction of life, and the audacity of humanity in its relationship with God. Hence, the subtitle of the work: the protagonist tries to compete in power with God, as a kind of modern Prometheus who snatches the sacred fire of life from the divinity. Although Frankenstein is infused with elements of the gothic novel and the romantic movement, science fiction writer and editor Brian Aldiss has argued that it should be considered the first true science fiction story.
