Abstract
This thesis will analyze two novels: the first edition of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein published in 1818, and Alasdair Gray’s Poor Things published in 1992, reading the latter as an intertextual response to the former. The focus of the thesis will be on the issues of gender, society and lack of female perspective, topics that both novels share. This will be done through close reading of the two novels whereby the influences of Frankenstein on Poor Things will be examined. Furthermore, the analysis will also examine the ways in which Poor Things challenges certain Victorian standards. The overall focus of this work will be on the depictions of the role of women and the effects of a male centered society.
