The horror novel of the English writer Mary Walstoncraft Shelley (1797-1851) lays the foundations of science fiction. He tells of a scientist who creates a intelligent being in an experiment. History is born while Shelley travels with other writers along the Rhine River. They stop at Frankenstein Castle, where it is claimed that two centuries earlier an alchemist has conducted mysterious experiments, and in the group's conversations dominated topics such as galvanism and occultism. When Lord Byron proposes to hold a competition who will write the best ghost story, Shelly uses these experiences as well as her own feelings of grief and guilt for the loss of a child to create her own story.
