Comparison between Tintern Abby and Frost at Midnight

Compare to the frost at Midnight, I think Tintern Abbey is more mysticism. It uses first person statement to express the the emotion of the author by what he feels about the Tintern Abbey connected to his personal experiences, to describe what he saw and write down his awe about it such as the river and mountains outside of it, also magnificent of the abbey. It was an old, characteristic style of building. On the contrary, the scene described in the frost at midnight is more about the nature.

How Frankenstein related to Romanism

Frankenstein is a book which full of element of passion. Through the first 6 chapters, I found that Victor is a man who is radical. He came up with the idea to creat a culture by himself because his mother died due to dystocia. Normally, nobody is going to have a decision on creating a culture by science rather than believing in god created human, it's a impossible mission to everybody. For sake of Victor's constant perseverance and passion to his mom, he succeed on his project although what he finally made is a freak in his eyes. Also, the book describes a lot of detail of his motion and self-expression reflecting by his motion and conversation with others. It shows us a man who would not even exist in the reality, a man who explores science by his own and never retreat when he faces any huge problem. On the other hand, his wife Elisabeth is also a example of being Romanism. She deeply loves his husband and has no fear to do everything for him. Though she noticed How crazy Victory is and how impossible work he has, she still convince herself to love him and support him.
