The idea of the monster/supernatural has evolved throughout the time periods and works we have studied this year, including Coolidge's "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner," Blake's "The Chimney Sweeper," Shelley's "Frankenstein," Lord Byron's Meter and Stanzas, and Wordsworth's "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud." In Coolidge's work, the monster is depicted as a cursed being who brings misfortune to those around him, similar to the monster in Shelley's "Frankenstein." However, in Blake's "The Chimney Sweeper," the supernatural is portrayed as a figure of hope and redemption for the oppressed chimney sweepers. Lord Byron's Meter and Stanzas explore the dark and mysterious aspects of the supernatural, while Wordsworth's "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" presents a more peaceful and serene view of the natural world. Overall, the concept of the monster/supernatural has transformed over time, from being seen as a source of fear and destruction to a symbol of hope and wonder.
