Notes on the Text
All efforts have been made to present the text of the author’s work
in its first published form. While this includes preserving spelling and
punctuation, it also means that we have preserved the language of
the author, some of which may be offensive to modern readers.
Every work of art is created in a historical context—the world
inhabited by the creator—and necessarily reflects the beliefs,
prejudices, vocabulary, and ideas of the creator. For example, Mary
Shelley’s monumental Frankenstein not only incorporates the science
of the day, it also displays the era’s (and Shelley’s own) attitudes
about education, the role of men, the role of women, the fluidity of
gender, class distinctions, ethnic and racial differences, and
standards of morality.
We believe that important books explore ideas that are timeless;
however, they also mirror accurately the world that existed at the
time of creation. Indeed, in many cases, such books are important
precisely because they exemplify ideas that are no longer current,
attitudes and behaviors that are no longer tolerated, standards that
are no longer judged valid. Philosopher George Santayana wrote,
“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”
If we wish to be different from or better than some of those who
came before us, we cannot close our eyes to their lives and works as
they were.
