The End of the World with Michael and Stu
The Apocalypse is Everywhere. The End of the World with Michael and Stu is a (hopefully) insightful and (hopefully) humorous exploration of the rise of apocalyptic news, apocalyptic thinking and apocalyptic culture. Each week, we’ll be looking at a work of art, a piece of media, or an historical event related to the (hopefully not) impending End of the World.
The End of the World with Michael and Stu
Episode 5: Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus
Michael and Stu discuss apocalyptic themes in Mary Shelley's genre-inventing science fiction classic, Frankenstein. Are we, as a society, on the verge of being overrun by monsters of our own making? Can we see Victor Frankenstein's creation as a metaphor for any of our current predicaments? Is Frankenstein's Monster the first emo kid? The answers to these questions and so much more can be discovered by...listening to our episode!
