Frankenstein [Spanish]

Cuando V ctor Frankenstein logra dar vida a su creaci n mediante un experimento cient fico ins lito, se arrepiente de inmediato al contemplar con horror a la criatura que ha tra do al mundo. Rechazada y confundida, la criatura huye, desencadenando una serie de eventos marcados por el sufrimiento y la incomprensi n. Sin embargo, qui n es realmente culpable? La criatura, que solo anhela comprensi n y afecto, o el hombre que le dio la vida y luego se neg a asumir las consecuencias de su obra?

Escrito como parte de un reto literario entre Mary Shelley, Percy B. Shelley y Lord Byron durante el verano de 1816, Frankenstein fue concebido cuando Mary ten a apenas 18 a os. La novela se public por primera vez de forma an nima en 1818, y ha sido considerada una de las obras fundacionales de la ciencia ficci n moderna. Su combinaci n de elementos g ticos, reflexiones filos ficas y avances cient ficos provoc una revoluci n literaria, inspirando generaciones enteras de escritores y dando origen a todo un subg nero del horror.

Esta edici n ha sido cuidadosamente traducida por Joaqu n de la Sierra, especialista en la traducci n de cl sicos universales. Autor de versiones elogiadas de obras como Dr cula de Bram Stoker y Orgullo y Prejuicio de Jane Austen, Joaqu n se ha destacado por mantener la fidelidad al tono original mientras adapta los textos para el lector hispanohablante moderno. Esta traducci n respeta el estilo y el esp ritu de Shelley, usando un espa ol neutro, actualizando medidas y referencias culturales cuando es necesario, todo con el objetivo de acercar esta obra inmortal a nuevas generaciones de lectores.

Una historia que no solo plantea preguntas sobre la ciencia y la tica, sino tambi n sobre la soledad, la identidad y el deseo de ser aceptado. Frankenstein sigue siendo, m s de dos siglos despu s, una lectura tan inquietante como necesaria.

"Curssed, curssed, creator." - The monster

Victor grew up reading the works of Paracelsus, Agrippa, and Albertus Magnus, the alchemists of the time. Toss in a little natural philosophy (sciences) and you have the making of a monster. Or at least a being that, after being spurned for looking ugly, becomes ugly. So, for revenge, the creature decides that unless Victor makes another (female this time) creature, Victor will also suffer the loss of friends and relatives. What is Victor to do? Bow to the wishes and needs of his creation? Or challenge it to “the death”? What would you do? Although the concept of the monster is good, and the conflicts of the story are well thought out, Shelly suffers from the writing style of the time. Many people do not finish the book as the language is stilted and verbose, for example, when was the last time you said, "Little did I then expect the calamity that was in a few moments to overwhelm me and extinguish in horror and despair all fear of ignominy of death." Much of the book seems like a travel log filler. More time is spent describing the surroundings of Europe than the reason for traveling or just traveling. Many writers use traveling to reflect time passing or the character growing in stature or knowledge. In this story, they just travel a lot. This book is worth plodding through for moviegoers. The record needs to be set straight. The first shock is that the creator is named Victor Frankenstein; the creature is just a "monster", not Frankenstein. It is Victor who is backward, which adds to his doing the impossible by not knowing any better. The monster is well-read in "Sorrows of a Young Werther," "Paradise Lost," and Plutarch's "Lives." The debate (mixed with a few murders) rages on as to whether the monster was doing evil because of his nature or because he was spurned.
