“You can be merry with [him], you can share a joke with him. But as Thomas More used to say, it’s like sporting with a tamed lion. You tousle its mane and pull its ears, but all the time you’re thinking, those claws, those claws, those claws.”

— Hilary Mantel, Bring Up The Bodies

[dykenstein-deactivated20210514]

the monster from frankenstein as a demigod trying to grapple with his human and divine parts except it’s about grappling with his humanity and monstrosity, because monstrosity in frankenstein is inherently divine

[halmoney]

“What I really wanted to say was that a monster is not such a terrible thing to be. From the Latin root monstrum, a divine messenger of catastrophe, then adapted by the Old French to mean an animal of myriad origins: centaur, griffin, satyr. To be a monster is to be a hybrid signal, a lighthouse: both shelter and warning at once.“ - On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous, Ocean Vuong

[ottovanvonveen]

“For example, were we to call him a “dæmon,” we would not necessarily demonize him, for ‘dæmon’ to Mary meant not a devil (and not a program running in a Unix system) but, as in Greek mythology, a runner between heaven and earth, a superhuman being less than a god.”

- Charles E. Robinson, Introduction to Frankenstein annotated for scientists, engineers and creators of all kinds (Italics by me).

[izzychao]

““Monster” is derived from the Latin noun monstrum, “divine portent,” itself formed on the root of the verb monere, “to warn.” It came to refer to living things of anomalous shape or structure, or to fabulous creatures like the sphinx who were composed of strikingly incongruous parts, because the ancients considered the appearance of such beings to be a sign of some impending supernatural event. Monsters, like angels, functioned as messengers and heralds of the extraordinary. They served to announce impending revelation, saying, in effect, “Pay attention; something of profound importance is happening.””
