ABSTRACT At the Frankenstein @ 200 colloquium, March 2019, Princeton University (sponsored by a David Gardner Grant), Professors John Bugg (Fordham University) and Adam Potkay (The College of William and Mary) presented papers addressing the topic, ‘Teaching Frankenstein: Race, Ethics, and Pedagogy’. My introduction sets the stage for their now evolved articles. John Bugg’s ‘Teaching Frankenstein and Race’ takes up the problems of turning this conjunction into an allegory, a gesture in the first reviews, and persisting in critical discussion. Adam Potkay takes up a related conjunction, pressed into a conditional logic: the foundation of happiness on virtue (the classical tradition), or the reverse, the foundation of virtue on happiness (social and material contingencies). Bugg’s story wends through critical and reception history to the classrooms of the twenty-first century; Potkay traces a genealogy of race and happiness into Richard Wright’s midcentury novel of racial trauma, Native Son.

简介：科学怪人、种族与伦理

摘要 在 2019 年 3 月的 Frankenstein @ 200 座谈会上，普林斯顿大学（由 David Gardner Grant 赞助）、John Bugg 教授（福特汉姆大学）和 Adam Potkay 教授（威廉玛丽学院）发表了论文，讨论了主题“教弗兰肯斯坦：种族、伦理和教育学”。我的介绍为他们现在发展的文章奠定了基础。John Bugg 的“Teaching Frankenstein and Race”解决了将这种结合变成寓言、第一批评论中的一种姿态以及坚持批判性讨论的问题。Adam Potkay 提出了一个相关的结合，被压入一个条件逻辑：幸福的基础是美德（古典传统），或者反过来，美德的基础是幸福（社会和物质偶然性）。Bugg 的故事从批评和接受历史一直延伸到 21 世纪的课堂；Potkay 将种族和幸福的谱系追溯到理查德·赖特 (Richard Wright) 的本世纪中叶种族创伤小说《土生土长的儿子》(Native Son) 中。
