Since its publication in 1818, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein has an evolving legacy as a masterwork in exploring the complexity of the lived experience. The story and its main characters have often been an inflection point to discuss contemporary cultural issues, which have varied greatly in the last 200+ years. In this talk, we will explore how anxiety manifests in Frankenstein as a feeling that is grappled with by characters and how contemporary issues around mental health continue to engage with themes from the book.
