Glimpse on Myths in Frankenstein by P.B.Shelly:-

1)Myth of Prometheus-
Prometheus steal fire from Mount Olympus & give it to human kind.
His intention was good but way of serving was quite harmful or punishable so it's leads towards fall.
2)Myth of Narcissus-
Echo-a young girl falls in love with Narcissus who was a son of river God (Ephesus & Nymph).they always had worry of Narcissus as a prophet suggested to not know he-himself.
But on his 16th he walks on lack & Echo saw him & attracted towards him but at a time he insulted her & this was noticed by goddess of revenge & they gave him punishment. Ultimately reflection of own killed himself.
3)Myth of Paradise Lost-
Satan's trick to trap Eve & Eve's attempts to convince Adam shows how Hunan beings are always remains in crave for getting satisfaction at all.though God denied they ate that fruit & how human beings have to started their journey of pain & suffering. God's punishment remains above all this & men proved lesser than him ultimately.
Thank You.
