  “My father had often, during my imprisonment, heard me make the...” 全部笔记（1） 去书内

  During my imprisonment, my father often heard me make the same claim. When I accused myself, he sometimes seemed to seek an explanation, while at others he treated it as the product of delirium—believing some such idea had struck my imagination during illness and lingered in my convalescence. I avoided explaining and stayed silent about the creature I’d created. I was convinced I’d be deemed mad, and that alone would have silenced me forever. Beyond that, I couldn’t bear to reveal a secret that would fill the listener with consternation, planting fear and unnatural horror in their heart. So I suppressed my desperate need for empathy, staying silent even when I longed to confide the fatal secret to the world. Yet words like those I’ve written would still burst out uncontrollably. I could offer no explanations, but their partial truth eased the burden of my mysterious grief.

  “The past appeared to me in the light of a frightful dream; yet...” 全部笔记（1） 去书内

  The past loomed before me like a terrifying dream; yet the ship beneath me, the wind carrying me from Ireland's hated shores, and the surrounding sea all too starkly reminded me this was no illusion. Clerval—my friend, my dearest companion—had fallen victim to me and the monster I’d created. In memory, I relived my entire life: the quiet joy with my family in Geneva, my mother’s death, my departure for Ingolstadt. With a shudder, I recalled the mad fervor that drove me to create my hideous foe, and the night he first drew breath. I could not follow that train of thought; a thousand emotions overwhelmed me, and I wept uncontrollably. Ever since my recovery from...

  “Yet one duty remained to me, the recollection of which finally...” 全部笔记（1） 去书内

  Yet one duty still remained for me, the memory of which finally overcame my selfish despair. I must return to Geneva without delay to watch over the lives of those I loved so dearly, and lie in wait for the murderer. If any chance led me to his hiding place, or if he dared to blast me again with his presence, I would end the existence of that monstrous creature I had given life to—whose mockery of a soul was even more hideous than its form. My father still wished to postpone our departure, fearing I could not endure the journey's hardships, for I was a broken wreck, a shadow of a human being. My strength had vanished; I was a mere skeleton, and fever preyed on my wasted frame day and night.

  “The season of the assizes approached. I had already been three...” 全部笔记（1） 去书内

  This passage highlights the protagonist’s legal ordeal and fragile reprieve. The three-month imprisonment and forced travel despite illness underscore his physical and emotional suffering. Mr. Kirwin’s efforts contrast with institutional rigidity, while the grand jury’s acquittal—grounded in alibi proof—reveals a rare triumph of logic over prejudice. The mention of Orkney Islands subtly ties to the creature’s lair, hinting at lingering guilt and the unresolved horror of creation. Liberation offers temporary relief, but the shadow of blame and the monster’s threat linger, deepening the novel’s tension between justice and existential dread.

  “My change of manner surprised and pleased the magistrate;...” 全部笔记（1） 去书内

  This snippet highlights the magistrate’s misinterpretation of the protagonist’s trauma as fleeting delirium, underscoring society’s failure to grasp the depth of his psychological wounds. The sudden entrance of the father—after the magistrate’s "benevolence"—introduces a flicker of familial solace, contrasting institutional冷漠 (indifference) with potential paternal compassion. Yet the brevity of the scene hints at unresolved tensions, as the protagonist’s silent burdens remain unspoken, echoing the novel’s theme of isolation amid superficial connections.

  “I know not by what chain of thought the idea presented itself,...” 全部笔记（1） 去书内

  This passage captures the protagonist’s paranoia and trauma, as the murderer’s implied mockery intensifies his psychological torture. The phrase "darted into my mind" reflects his fractured mental state, while "hellish desires" underscores the creature’s malevolent influence and the protagonist’s sense of entrapment. The visceral reaction ("put my hand before my eyes," "cried out in agony") embodies his guilt and terror, highlighting the novel’s exploration of obsession and the destructive power of unchecked creation.

  “"Immediately upon your being taken ill, all the papers...” 全部笔记（1） 去书内

  This dialogue reveals Mr. Kirwin’s humane intervention—examining papers to locate kin reflects societal duty, while the two-month delay in Geneva’s response amplifies the protagonist’s precarious isolation. Mention of the father’s letter hints at potential familial reunion, yet the emphasis on "illness" and "agitation" underscores the protagonist’s fragility, juxtaposing institutional procedure with the longing for human connection central to the novel’s themes.

  “One day, while I was gradually recovering, I was seated in a...” 全部笔记（1） 去书内

  This passage captures the creature’s deep existential crisis as he contemplates suicide and self-condemnation, driven by guilt and societal rejection. Phrases like "replete with wretchedness" and the comparison to Justine’s injustice highlight his moral agony and alienation. Mr. Kirwin’s "sympathy and compassion" offer a rare flicker of humanity, contrasting sharply with the冷漠 (indifference) of others, hinting at potential redemption while underscoring the novel’s themes of empathy and the cost of isolation.
