If u got evidence of this, I would unironically like to see it. Mary Shelley is one of the few bastions that maintain my respect for women intellectually

That fucking painting must be on the cover of like 500+ different cheap printings of books

It's a pretty standard Romantic painting. It's on most works in the Romantic period

Nah, in fact it blows P.B Shelley out of the water. Have you read his Prometheus Unbound? It's among the worst pieces of literature I've consumed. It's all the more embarrassing when you realize the wife of the author of fucking Frankenstein wrote it. Similar themes, just much, much worse. I lost all respect for Shelley after reading and comparing the two pieces.

My copy has a whole preface saying even the suggestion that Percy helped write it is sexist. He is obviously the real author though.

Let's see actual evidence either way. I don't care about the pro/anti feminist angle, it's an interesting question.

He used one in-group term. You just used two.
