From the Longman Cultural Editions series, this second edition of
Frankenstein presents Mary Shelley's remarkable novel in several
provocative and illuminating contexts: cultural, critical, and
literary. Series Editor Susan J. Wolfson presents the 1818 version
of Mary Shelley's famous novel in its cultural and historical
contexts. Like all great works of fiction, Frankenstein gains depth
and dimension from its conversation with contemporary texts,
especially those by Shelley's own parents, husband, and friends. In
addition to the 1818 text, this cultural edition features the
introduction to and a sample revision of the 1831 version. A lively
introduction to the edition is complemented by a chronology
coordinating Shelley's life with key historical events and a
speculative calendar of the novel's events in the late eighteenth
century. of the complete text of an important literary work,
reliably edited, headed by an inviting introduction, supplemented
by helpful annotations, accompanied by a table of significant dates
and a guide for further study, then followed by contextual
materials that reveal the conversations and controversies of its
historical moment. One Longman Cultural Edition can be packaged at
no additional cost with any volume of The Longman Anthology of
British Literature by Damrosch et al, or at a discount with any
other Longman textbook.
