Mont Blanc comparisons

Mary Shelley takes an interesting approach when describing Mont Blanc, while Percy Shelley adds a little bit more of a negative effect on his explanation. Mary describes the mountain as beautiful and majestic. She even goes into detail saying that the mountain can "cure ones soul". According to her, Mont Blanc cured Frankenstein's soul shortly after the death of his loved ones. One thing that I also noticed when comparing the two views was that Mary took more of an optimistic view, whereas Percy took more into consideration, making it almost a pessimistic view. Mary liked to talk about how Frankenstein loved the mountains and how they were a wonderful sight, and her mood was just overall uplifting. On the other hand, Percy Shelley talks about the bigger aspects of life. He talks about heaven and hell. On the bright side, though, he makes the reader think about life, which is always a positive thing. Both authors like to enable pictures in the reader's head, and they use some pretty strong vocab. The authors are definitely writing romantically because of their vocabulary and imagery.
