Griffin is the model of science without humanity. Justify with reference to the Invisible Man.

Answer»
  • Griffin begins his road to decline in college when he becomes so obsessed with his experiments that he hides his work lest anyone else should receive credit.
  • When he runs out of money, he kills his own father-
  • He goes from scientist to fanatic when he begins to focus all of his attention merely on the concept of invisibility and neglects to think about the consequences of such a condition.
  • The evil that he could commit does not occur to him until after he has swallowed the potion and seen the reaction of the landlord and others.
  • Griffin at no time expresses any remorse for his behavior or for the crimes, which he merely describes as “necessary.”
  • His only regret is frustration over not having thought about the drawbacks of invisibility.
  • For nearly a year, he works on trying to perfect an antidote;
  • when time runs out for that activity, he first tries to leave the country, and then, that plan failing, tries to find an accomplice for himself so he can enjoy his invisibility and have all the comforts of life as well.
  • He goes from obsession to fanaticism to insanity.
