In “Frankenstein”,
Victor decides to travel to the summit of Montanvert. When he sees the pure, beautiful
nature covered with glacier, he feels the sublime spectacle from nature. As he
says “They elevated me from all littleness of feeling; and although they did
not remove my grief, they subdued and tranquillized it”.
In “Mont Blanc” by Percy Shelley, he describes Mont Blanc as mountain around
with ice and rock. He feels that death is slumber and it's a circle. Also he recommends
people to feel deeply. Both of them are relating to the Romantic Movement. As I
quote “The veil of life and death? Or do I die. In dream, and does the mightier
world of sleep” and “large codes of fraud and woe; not understood. By all, but
which the wise, and great, and good. Interpret, or make felt, or deeply feel. They
emphasized the feeling of a sublime nature from external experience by feeling
of awe and tranquillization.
