The Golem vs Mary Shelley's Creature

Today, one of my students (Nahar Sadian) told me that she saw many similarities between Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, which we studied in class a few days ago, and the story of "The Golem of Prague", a Jewish tale that she knows well.

Would you like to learn more about that Jewish tale and think about the similarities between it and Shelley's work?

        

Here's a link to the story of the Golem:
