The seminar celebrates the second centenary of the publication of Frankenstein with an introduction to the novel and an overview of images of the monster down through the ages, from contemporary engravings to later film versions. It will then continue with a discussion of Mel Brook’s box-office success Young Frankenstein, the comic horror film of 1974.
