Everyone has felt somewhat out of place at one point or another in his or her life. How does one feel when he or she has no one to turn to? Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Rappaccini's Daughter" are both works that give the reader a chance to observe how individuals feel and act when they are placed in an isolated position. Mary Shelly's Frankenstein is a book about a creature that is alienated from society due to his repulsive outward appearance, and Hawthorne's story gives the account of a beautiful lady who cannot have social acquaintances because of her fatal physical qualities. Frankenstein's creature's isolation is turned into rage, while Beatrice, Rappaccini's daughter, reverts her alienation into depression. Both Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and Hawthorne's "Rappaccini's Daughter" show how alienation affects the mental outlook of two individuals in similar situations.Alienation is when one feels overly oppressed because he has no one to relate his feelings and thoughts. One of the major reasons the teenaged students at Columbine High School went on their murderous spree was because of their isolation from the rest of the students. The murderers felt like they held no common ground
