Who's The Monster?
Abstract
This paper focuses on the concept of fear and the monstrous human. The first part of
this paper treats Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein as an examination of fear as a cycle that
produces rage when confronted by the moral detachment and shaming of others. The
second part of this project addresses aspects of societal fear manifested in the zombie
monster and set within the paradigm of the zombie apocalypse as posited in Max
Brooks’ World War Z. The conclusions reached in this discussion suggest that
compassion and reason are the antidote for the social toxin of terror.
