 Mellor, "Promethean Politics"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
Mary Shelley's own political ideology would serve instead the interests of the family; she thus encourages the active participation of women in the body politic.
We must recognize that Shelley's commitment to political reform modelled on bourgeois family relationships, in which no activity interferes with the tranquillity of the domestic affections, entails the acceptance of the domination of parents over children even in an egalitarian family in which husband and wife are regarded as equals.
Since the personal is the political, it is not surprising that Mary Shelley's political ideology embodies the same contradiction between caring and controlling, between equality and domination, manifested in the dream that engendered Frankenstein.
