- Find out that safie's father is executed in paris, due to his relegion, turkish origin and and wealth. parsi dislikes this.
- Felix thinks of safie as 'a treasure that could fully reward his toil' that he would' Simmilar to how Victor wants to posess Elizabeth
- Femmenism/Christianity: Safie's mother taught her 'the tennets of her relegion, and to aspire to higher powers of intelect and an independence of spirit forbidden to the female followers of Muhammed'
- Felix cannot leave his sister and brother in sorrowful prison whilst he is free with his lover. presents a virtue which Victor seems not to have - Victor does not care about his family until he needs them for his own emotional support
- The story of felix and the turkish merchant is a long, and romantic one. It explains why he was always melancholly when the creature viewed him
- Safie is shown to be just as passionate/romantic as Felix. she journeys from italy to germany against her father's will just to be with him
- her servant falls ill and dies, despite Safie nursing her constantly. Safie is 'left alone, unequaited with the language'. Theme of abandonment, this time involintary, returns. However, another servant conveniently knows where the cottage is and directs her to it - contrived?
Safie's father escapes execution. Again, what does Safie's story add to our understanding of the novel?
