Frankenstein and R.U.R. analysis

I noticed many connections between Frankenstein and R.U.R. I read Frankenstein first, therefore while I was reading R.U.R. I couldn’t help but think that they have the same exact overall message. First of all, they both have scientists that are messing with the laws of nature by creating life unnaturally. By using their technology they manage to create live beings that look like human beings but a little bit altered. In R.U.R. however, these beings are designed to free the humans from work for the rest of their lives, thus leaving them to just do nothing all day. On the other hand Victor Frankenstein created his monster purely out of curiosity and to defy the laws of nature. They both succeeded and the result of their creations were both negative. Both creations grow to resent their creators and vow to destroy their lives. Frankenstein’s creature with the destruction of Victor’s loved ones and family, and the R.U.R. robots with the destruction of the human race as a whole. Both creations were capable of much more than they were meant, and the humans soon realized that their creations were capable of ruling their creators. The creations longed to experience human emotion and be human-like, they both desired to live like the humans do in happiness and acceptance. In order for them to do this, both creations of technology tried to enslave their creators and force them to make more of their kind. With hopes of companionship and to refuel their race, in order to have constant existence, much like human beings. All in all, the technology saw human beings lifestyle and it appealed to them so much that they both tried to urge their creators to make them more human.
