Chapter 1: The Ambitious Scientist
第1章:雄心勃勃的科学家
Victor Frankenstein was a brilliant young man from Geneva, Switzerland, who had a deep passion for science and knowledge. From a young age, he was fascinated by the mysteries of life and death, reading ancient alchemy texts and modern scientific works.
维克多·弗兰肯斯坦是来自瑞士日内瓦的杰出青年,对科学和知识有着深厚的热情。从年轻时起,他就被生与死的奥秘所吸引,阅读古代炼金术著作和现代科学著作。
His ambition to uncover the secrets of nature consumed him, leading him to the University of Ingolstadt in Germany, where he would pursue his studies with unprecedented intensity. There, he immersed himself in chemistry and physiology, conducting relentless experiments to understand the fundamental principles that govern life and death.
他揭开自然秘密的雄心吞噬了他,使他前往德国因戈尔施塔特大学,在那里以前所未有的强度进行研究。在那里,他沉浸在化学和生理学中,进行无情的实验,以了解支配生命和死亡的基本原理。
Victor's intellectual pursuits gradually isolated him from his family and friends, as his single-minded dedication to scientific discovery left little room for normal human relationships and social connections. This isolation would prove to be the beginning of a tragic journey that would consume his entire life.
维克多的智力追求逐渐使他与家人和朋友隔绝,因为他对科学发现的单一奉献几乎没有为正常的人际关系和社会联系留出空间。这种孤立将证明是消耗他整个生命的悲剧旅程的开始。
