I have been readed a book calls Stories Of History by Carlos Fisas wich is an interesting and funny book that tells in a special way the stories, anecdotes, curiosities and aspects of daily life of history characters and situations that are true; I recomended this for all people who loves history… but, well now I’m going to tell you about a peculiar confusion. In 1811 three english friends deicided that each one of them will written a fantastic novel, they were Percy Bysshe Shelley, Lord Byron ( George Gordon) and Percy’s wife Mary Shelley. Only the last one wrote a book called Frankeinstein or the modern Prometeo: It was Published on 1818. In the novel Frankeinstein is a student in Ingolstadt University – Baviera of 19 years old . He created an artificial man from parts of dead bodys wich is potent and conscious and suffered for the fear that he produce in others and, in the other hand, he wish love… thing that is imposible. He is sentensed to loneliness and he revenged men destroyed them, begining with his creator, at the end he fleed to the artic where he disappeared. But this romantic fantasy doesn’t see in the films versions of the book – J. Whole 1931- wich have made that people confuse the name of the creator of the monster with the monster. Frankeinstein is the student, no doctor, his creation is unnamed in the novel.
So I leave you a link where you can see the trailer of one of the firts film adaptation of the book of Mary Shelley...it looks a little funny ....
