The paper explores the themes of justice and rights in Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, focusing on the ethical dilemmas present in the novel. The author examines how the 19th-century societal transformations influenced concepts of justice and rights, drawing on Enlightenment thinkers like John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau. The paper argues that Frankenstein reflects these ideas through its characters, particularly in the portrayal of the creature as a being endowed with life and rights but rejected by society, embodying the struggles for justice. The analysis extends to Victor Frankenstein's moral failures, highlighting the tension between individual rights and the common good. Using Michael Sandel's theories on justice, the paper critiques the decisions of Victor and their broader implications for societal ethics. The work ultimately advocates for a more compassionate and fair approach to justice that recognizes the dignity and rights of all beings.
