QUESTION: How is belief or faith represented in two literary works? What, according to these works, is the significance of faith? 
Thesis statement: Although Frankenstein is written in the early 19th century in Geneva, Switzerland, and 1984 is written in time of emerging Cold War tensions, both works depict the significance of belief and faith through points of view, allusions and symbolism; the authors show the importance of having belief and faith, and the consequences of it.

Topic sentence 2: In both Frankenstein and 1984 the authors use allusions to offer insights into beliefs and faiths of characters.
Topic sentence 3: Thirdly, 1984 and Frankenstein deeply explore the theme of faith and belief through symbolism.
