Book Frankenstein Alive  Alive

Download or read book Frankenstein Alive Alive written by Steve Niles and published by toonfish. This book was released on 2024-10-01 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Das Monster lebt! In »Frankenstein Alive, Alive!« führen Bernie Wrightson, der unumstrittene Großmeister des Horrorcomics, und Kult-Schriftsteller Steve Niles den genredefinierenden Klassiker von Mary Shelley fort. Das aus Leichenteilen zusammengeflickte, von Victor Frankenstein geschaffene Wesen hat seinen Vater verlassen. Als Zirkusattraktion hat »Frank« sich eine Existenz aufgebaut. Kein glamouröses Leben, aber besser als ein Dasein als geächtetes Monstrum. Der Weg dorthin war lang und gezeichnet von Verlusten, aber er brachte Frankensteins Monster dem nahe, was sein Schöpfer ihm verwehren wollte: Menschlichkeit. Bernie Wrightsons Faszination für Mary Shelleys »Frankenstein« war eine Konstante in seinem künstlerischen Werk. Die Zusammenarbeit mit Steve Niles (»30 Days of Night«) sollte der krönende Abschluss seiner Liebe zu diesem zeitlosen Stoff werden, doch sein früher Tod verhinderte, dass er selbst die letzten Seiten zeichnen konnte. Mit Kelley Jones wählte Wrightson selbst einen Nachfolger, der seine Vision mit Bravour vollendete.

    Book Details:
  • Author : Lester D. Friedman
  • Publisher : Rutgers University Press
  • Release : 2016-08
  • ISBN : 0813564255
  • Pages : 253 pages

Download or read book Monstrous Progeny written by Lester D. Friedman and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2016-08 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary Shelley’s 1818 novel Frankenstein is its own type of monster mythos that will not die, a corpus whose parts keep getting harvested to animate new artistic creations. What makes this tale so adaptable and so resilient that, nearly 200 years later, it remains vitally relevant in a culture radically different from the one that spawned its birth? Monstrous Progeny takes readers on a fascinating exploration of the Frankenstein family tree, tracing the literary and intellectual roots of Shelley’s novel from the sixteenth century and analyzing the evolution of the book’s figures and themes into modern productions that range from children’s cartoons to pornography. Along the way, media scholar Lester D. Friedman and historian Allison B. Kavey examine the adaptation and evolution of Victor Frankenstein and his monster across different genres and in different eras. In doing so, they demonstrate how Shelley’s tale and its characters continue to provide crucial reference points for current debates about bioethics, artificial intelligence, cyborg lifeforms, and the limits of scientific progress. Blending an extensive historical overview with a detailed analysis of key texts, the authors reveal how the Frankenstein legacy arose from a series of fluid intellectual contexts and continues to pulsate through an extraordinary body of media products. Both thought-provoking and entertaining, Monstrous Progeny offers a lively look at an undying and significant cultural phenomenon.

This is a subject with wide and important repercussions in diverse cultural contexts today.
