Freud and Frankenstein
🕑 Added 2023-06-07 12:56:20 +0000 UTCThis week we're talking Mary Shelly, myth & monstrosity, family, Freud and Frankenstein. For this episode, we've read "History and family in Frankensteinβ in Zizek's In Defense of Lost Causes. Why are stories so often posed through the motif of the family drama? Does the myth of the family distract from the real historical frame of the novel? Who coined the term capitalist realism? Is the mistake of calling the monster "Frankenstein" like calling a soda "Coke"? Enjoy!

Tyrna get this damn monster off π
Sincerely enjoying the nested preambles. Every time the music comes in you think itβs over, but of course you have merely arrived at the next layer of preamble.
