Contributors advance two claims: first, this story is the product of creolization—the intentional conglomeration of a variety of scientific, mythological, political, religious, gender, educational, historical, and racial discourses. Second, they trace the ways in which \u003ci\u003eFrankenstein\u003c\/i\u003e has creolized itself into modern and contemporary life and culture in such a way as to have become a new mythology and political statement for each generation. The contributors to this book place \u003ci\u003eFrankenstein\u003c\/i\u003e into productive conversation with such figures and fields as Frederick Douglass and slave narrative, Frantz Fanon and postcolonial theory, Afro-Caribbean Hispanophone and Francophone literature, nineteenth century labor history, the Black Radical Tradition, Trans studies, feminist theory, Marxism and critical social theory, film studies, music and media studies, Afro-futurism and African futurism, political theory, education theory, Gothic literary studies, and Africana philosophy. \u003cbr\u003eContributors: Kyle William Bishop, Persephone Braham, Alan M.
