What are some examples of Romanticism in Frankenstein, chapter 5?

Romantic
literature often focused on individualism, emotion, and a tortured hero who has broken the rules
of society, God, or nature.

In chapter 5, Romanticism is expressed through
the intense emotions of anguish and disgustexperiences upon seeing his creation. This sense of
horror overwhelms him. As he puts it:

Sometimes my pulse
beat so quickly and hardly that I felt the palpitation of every artery; at others, I nearly sank
to the ground through languor and extreme weakness.

Shelley shows how deeply Victor feels the pain of having created a
monster. His response is not rational, reasoned "what do I do now?" but a severe
emotional reaction of distress.

Second, the chapter shows Victor, the
isolated individual genius who has worked alone in his tower for several years to create life
from inanimate parts, as the tortured hero. Like Prometheus, who was punished for taking on the
privileges of the gods in giving fire to the humans, so has Victor overreached his human bounds.
This is a very typical thing for a Romantic hero to do: such a hero often attempts to do more
than mere mortals can achieve. Victor is punished and tormented for taking on the prerogative or
privilege of God in creating human life.

Shelley also points specifically to
Victor as a Romantic figure being punished for violating God's laws by quoting in this chapter
from "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner," another Romantic work in which the , the
Ancient Mariner, is punished for violating the laws of God and nature.
