Education as a theme in Frankenstein

Mary Shelley;s father believed education was the “universal Solution”
Her Fathers ideas that education makes human better is shattered by marginlization of uneducated man by the well-learned Walton.
“Sorrow only increases with knowledge”, is echoed throughout the novel
After the creatures experience an education, there is an opportunity for closure in a fairy tale type ending, however it goes pair shape
This symbolizes Shelley’s disagreement with her fathers ideals of education as a universal solution
