Depending on oneвЂ™s perspective, either Frankenstein or his Creature are paradigmatic Romantic subjects. It marks a growing suspicion of scientific experimentation and its violent powers, and mounts вЂњa blistering critique of Romantic egotismвЂќ (Schor 2003, 2). The novel draws on both of these connections, inheriting the revolutionary politics of the 1790s while sharing the wider Romantic critique of empiricism and the desire, at once Wordsworthian and Shelleyan, to вЂњsee into the life of thingsвЂќ (Wordsworth 1798, 204).

Published at the centre of this historical period, it was written by a very young woman, the daughter of two pre-eminent вЂњfirst generationвЂќ radical philosophers and writers, William Godwin and Mary Wollstonecraft, and the partner of the вЂњsecond-generationвЂќ Romantic poet Percy Shelley. Such a focus on the novelвЂ™s exploration of movement, exile, and ostracism restores to our reading an awareness of ShelleyвЂ™s own peripatetic circumstances at the time she wrote Frankenstein the role of the Arctic circle in the contemporary cultural imaginary and the wider conditions of massed displacement across Britain and Europe after the Battle of Waterloo.ДЈ Frankenstein lies at the heart of British Romanticism in more than one way.

My reading focuses on this philosophical project in Frankenstein, specifically tracking its powerful imaginative geographies вЂ“ from South to North, from the Mediterranean Sea to the Arctic Ocean вЂ“ to explore ShelleyвЂ™s Romantic vocabulary of otherness and dislocation. ShelleyвЂ™s unfolding of the tragedy of human displacement вЂ“ the novelвЂ™s plea for hospitality, sympathy, and the cultivation of protective social bonds вЂ“ is characteristic of the radical compassionate politics of British Romanticism, and continues to resonate with a wide range of readers. So dislocated from human community is FrankensteinвЂ™s Creature, that the Arctic circle вЂ“ the вЂњlast frontierвЂќ of early nineteenth-century scientific knowledge вЂ“ becomes his only possible вЂњhomeвЂќ. But beyond its restless narrative action, the novel thematizes movement and exile at almost every level, with FrankensteinвЂ™s Creature absorbing and articulating the suffering of the outsider in a particularly powerful configuration of radical physical difference. Whether exiled or exiling themselves, they pursue education, curiosity, and pleasure escape religious, cultural, or political persecution and seek resolution or revenge. The framed structure of the novel underscores these repetitions and movements, setting multiple narratives inside one another like a set of Chinese lacquered boxes.Дў Why does Shelley set such significant parts of her novel outside Britain? The narrative moves in a deliberative northward geographical thrust, I want to suggest, because its characters are themselves constantly moving.

Centred in continental Europe (Italy, Switzerland, and Germany), its key encounters and cataclysmic events spiral outward and northward in a series of liminal spaces: first the Mer de Glace on Mont Blanc next the isolated Orkneys, and finally the icy wastes of the Arctic Ocean. 1 This is, however, only the first of the novelвЂ™s many displacements: its imaginative geography is equally complex and significant. For, in spite of its title, Mary ShelleyвЂ™s 1818 novel Frankenstein is arguably not about its projected protagonist вЂњFrankensteinвЂќ, but rather his вЂњhideous progenyвЂќ, an unnamed вЂњCreatureвЂќ composed of human and animal parts, brought to life by the scientistвЂ™s ambition and set on a path of exile from every form of human community. All further references to Frankenstein (.)ДЎ It is curious that perhaps the most archetypal figure of British Romantic humanism is neither British, nor even wholly human.
