Synopsis

Creolizing Frankenstein dissects and critically appreciates Mary Shelley's 200-year old novel. Contributors advance two claims: first, this story is the product of creolization-the intentional conglomeration of a variety of scientific, mythological, political, religious, gender, educational, historical, and racial discourses. Second, they trace the ways in which Frankenstein has creolized itself into modern and contemporary life and culture in such a way as to have become a new mythology and political statement for each generation. The contributors to this book place Frankenstein into productive conversation with such figures and fields as Frederick Douglass and slave narrative, Frantz Fanon and postcolonial theory, Afro-Caribbean Hispanophone and Francophone literature, nineteenth century labor history, the Black Radical Tradition, Trans studies, feminist theory, Marxism and critical social theory, film studies, music and media studies, Afro-futurism and African futurism, political theory, education theory, Gothic literary studies, and Africana philosophy.
