IT WAS THE SECRETS OF HEAVEN AND EARTH THAT I DESIRED TO LEARN.” In the dismal summer of 1816, dark clouds brewed over a continent seething in the ferment of a scientific revolution, while at its heart a teenage girl gestated a terrible creation. Challenged to write a ghost story, 18-year-old Mary Shelley stitched together the most powerful myth of modern times, combining the bleeding edge of early nineteenth-century science with a vivid Gothic sensibility to explore as never before issues of identity and generation, morality and technology. Her extraordinary tale of scientific hubris touched on contemporary and still current debates about the spark of life, the wellsprings of consciousness and the power of technology. Gothic Science explores the blurred and porous boundary between science and science fiction, and begs the question: just how close are we to creating our own monsters?
