I need a literary/scholarly critique of Frankenstein. "Google it." Yes, I have; however, I'm having trouble finding one with credentials, my teacher is a real stickler about that so... ya.

the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
Anyway, go to the library and ask a reference librarian. You'll probably use an online journals database like Project MUSE or JSTOR or Academic Search Premier (these search many scholarly journals and have full-text articles, very handy). If you want to get hardcore -- but why? -- then go to the MLA Bibliography; but then you might need to go find the physical journal itself and photocopy it.
Alternately, you can just look in the back of a very nice recent edition of Frankenstein. One publisher, Norton, usually includes a bunch of essays and stuff in the back, and you can look at their bibliographies or just use one if your teacher lets you.
Generally the most recent criticism is preferred, although your teacher may not care for your particular course (in which case essays from the 60s and 70s will be a lot easier to read!).
