Man has always constructed their own view of what boundaries we must stay in to be

seen as good, or on the light side of the spectrum. But notions of living immoral
or venturing past our perceived boundaries strikes a responsive note in all of us
to undertake a path other than that of the one of the righteousness-either going
against the cultural principles or consistency of the whole. In literature, there
has been a consistent need to offer the process and journeys testing this
principle. Frankenstein is no exception.
And, No, it's not about whether man can control it and play god. So, the actual
question to discuss in the novel is:
_? What
does Mary Shelley think, and is she right? Explain your answer.

Final answer:

Mary Shelley's view on the boundaries of morality in Frankenstein is open to interpretation, but it may suggest that living immorally can have negative consequences.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Mary Shelley's novel Frankenstein, the question being discussed is what she thinks about the boundaries of morality and whether she is right. While the novel doesn't give a clear answer, it invites interpretation. One interpretation could be that Shelley is suggesting that venturing past our perceived boundaries and living immorally can lead to negative consequences.
