Frankenstien/Rousseau

Rousseau believes in the inherent good in men, and that humans are kind creatures. Rousseau's idea that society creates evil in men, and that only when violence and anger are shown to a man, can he retaliate that act, is partially in Frankenstien. Frankenstien's monster was only shown anger and violence so that was all he knew. The monster was not inherently evil, he had certain primitive thoughts and acted on them in the only way he understood. Rousseau's idea that men are born good and society turns them evil is exemplified to an extent in Frankenstien.
