Stacey Folsom Timeline for Frankenstein
My timeline is going to focus on the novel Frankenstein by Mary Shelley and it's historical and cultural contextualization with movements like the French Revolution and Romanticism. I will also discuss certain events that occur during these movements and their relationship with Frankenstein.
San Francisco Federal Building
The San Francisco Federal Building is home to the regional office of what was formerly known as the Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW). Now this department has been separated into the Department of Health and Human Services, and the Department of Education. The regional office of the Department of Education still resides at this address. From April 5th to April 30th of 1977, this building was host to the longest sit in of a federal building in US history.
Buenos Aires
As the decade turned from the 1960’s to the 1970’s, the South American country of Argentina found itself in an awkward position, to say the least. After the regime of Juan Carlos Ongania was dissolved, an Argentine dictator who had himself taken office via a coup, the political situation deteriorated rapidly.
