Frankenstein-Benevolence

"And yet you rescued me from a strange and perilous situation: you have benevolently restored me to life" (pg 9). Robert had found Victor emaciated and near dead and he decided to help him out. Victor has many benevolent people in his life. He describes his parents as benevolent and his professor. Robert was benevolent to Victor because he nursed a stranger back to health and gave him food and shelter. It adds a contrast to how he treated his creation. He immediately abandons the monster after it was brought to life. Victor did not even know how his creation would act and did not take the time to observe him. The reader would think that Victor would extend common courtesy toward his creation and look after him because of all the benevolent people in his life, but he does not.
