D.L. Macdonald and Kathleen Scherfs edition of Frankenstein has been widely acclaimed as an outstanding edition of the novelfor the general reader and the student as much as for the scholar. The editors use as their copytext the original 1818 version, and detail in an appendix all of Shelleys later revisions. They also include a range of contemporary documents that shed light on the historical context from which this unique masterpiece emerged. New to this edition is a discussion of Percy Shelleys role in contributing to the first draft of the novel. Recent scholarship has provoked considerable interest in the degree to which Percy Shelley contributed to Mary Shelleys original text, and this editions updated introduction discusses this scholarship. A new appendix also includes Lord Byrons "A Fragment" and John William Polidoris The Vampyre, works that are engaging in their own right and that also add further insights into the literary context of Frankenstein.
