Thesis (M.A.)--State University of New York at Stony Brook, 2015.

Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, or the Modern Prometheus, is rarely classified as an epistolary novel. Many readers actually forget that the novel begins as a series of letters between an arctic explorer and his sister. The framing device of the letter used by Shelley cites the revered history of the epistolary novel in the previous century, most notably those of Samuel Richardson. Richardson used the epistolary form in his novels to create what Ian Watt refers to as "formal realism". Richardson presents his novels as truth objects by employing the epistolary frame, but Shelley uses the form to reject the claims made by the domestic novels of Richardson and the empirical formulations of the Enlightenment. Shelley places the genre of the epistolary novel into constant conflict with both her characters, and the other genres, constantly emerging throughout the text. Shelley uses this conflict to provide a more intricate interiority to her characters where she may analyze masculine anxiety towards domestic space.
