dc.description.abstractThe paper aims to explore how Aristotle's concepts of tragedy can be transferred to the study of epic narrative to discover new fields of interpretation of the novel "Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus". The protagonist Victor Frankenstein is traced to reveal his characteristics as a tragic character. The paper examines the construction of the plot of Mary Shelley's novel through the events of suffering, anagnorisis and peripeteia, identified in "Poetics" as key to the best examples of the tragedy as a genre.
