Name at least three characters in Frankenstein who exhibit despondency, and give a specific example of a scene or event in the story where you see this happen.

Respuesta :

one would be Victor Frankenstein, who is completely crushed by William's death. In one scene, he talks about how he takes his boat out trying to find peace of mind in nature, but how his guilt over William's death and then over Justine's conviction for it overcomes any happiness he might otherwise have felt, and he sinks into despondency again. Another would be Elizabeth in the aftermath of Justine's conviction: She talks about how she loved Justine, and believes her innocent of William's murder, and she is devastated when Justine is convicted despite her testimony in her favor.
* Despondency is a state of great despair.  Almost every character in Frankenstein is despondent, but the monster always seems the worst off to me.  He was created and then abandoned by Frankenstein.

*Victor exhibits despondency when his brother is murdered by the monster all hope is lost for Victor and he becomes very depressed.

*Victor Frankenstein, who is completely crushed by the death of William
