the effect of context on the characters

 I think that the bad weather condition on page 25-27 have influenced on Clerval and Frankenstein’s emotion. The monster can be created by a storm so that it is the situation that the life might come on monster. Frankenstein was so excited and happy that his experience would be finished and he did not listen to his friend’s attention and knocked out him with a chair. However, Clerval who wants to stop Frankenstein is not. He felt anger and little disappointed. Also both Frankenstein and Clerval was speaking strongly and maybe loudly out of necessary and hurry to do what they want to do (Clerval want to stop Frankenstein and Frankenstein want to create a monster). I think that they did that because of their emotion.


 The past of Frankenstein and Clerval is other thing that Clerval felt strongly that he has to stop creating a life. Until he realize that Frankenstein is testing for more than arm, he had same desire and working together. He thinks that he has to take a responsibility of that.

RE-ENACTMENT

1)
Acting
For the re-enactment, my group will do from page 25 to 27. there is only Frankenstein and Clerval. However, there is an acting for the monster on the first sentence on page 27.  I will act the monster and I do not think that is easy character because I have to make a strange noise. I should think about what does it sound like and be able to make it. Also I must tell others that I am the monster in the re-enactment without any speech so I must use my body such as movement. to show it.

Props
My main job is props. I have to think and collect what we need. I planned to bring some shirts and jeans for the all characters because this story  takes modern age and I think it is more connected to story than any casual clothes. Also I am thinking of the things to bring individually. For the Frankenstein I am planning to bring safety glasses because he is a scientist and I will print a paper mask for the monster. At first there is a door between Frankenstein and Clerval so now I am looking for the things that can be put instead of the real door.

2) there is a lot of "!" on the text. I think this is because the mood of the characters was anger and rushed. Frankenstein want to end creating a life as early as he can but Clerval think that he has to it before he create a monster that is guilty. They are arguing that the direction science as scientists.
 I think that the time of this part is at night from the speech of Frankenstein which "I must be tonight -tonight!" This time makes mood is creepy and scared and the place Frankenstein and Clerval are in is less light and cold. This has influenced on the characters that they are serious.
