Romantic Hero

Romantic hero is a literary archetype referring to a character that rejects established norms and conventions, has been rejected by society, and has the self as the center of his or her own existence. Therefore from the definition of a romantic hero we can say the monster from Frankenstein fits all those criteria. The monster is definitely not a normal being or lives a normal life. Society does not accept him for his appearance.
