Why are Frankenstein and personal growth connected with learning?

Written By Alice Shumanova

In this episode, I go over a few ideas which we will be ‘double-clicking’ on in the next few episodes too. Consider this a tasting board of ideas all stitched together which you can enjoy.

Ideas included:

  • Trauma as a Frankenstein’s monster

  • Saliency VS the nature of the thing itself

  • Going behind the meaning of something to determine deeper truth

  • Lop-sided development of our brains (social, emotional, logical)

  • Hedonic adaptation

“Nothing is so painful to the human mind as a great and sudden change.”
― Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, Frankenstein
