“… a being which had the shape of a man but apparently of gigantic stature…” (Shelley 13)
Shelley, in a way, is foreshadowing in the very beginning of a novel. R.W is out to sea on his ship and is surrounded by ice, they see an object that looks as though it could be a man, but is so large that it seems to be impossible. Shelley is letting the reader know that there is a being in the novel that could occur again that is gigantic and very human like, which has adapted but is just too large in stature to be a human.

Overall comments -- when you are on, you are ON -- a number of these entries can be improved just by digging in and identifying the author as crafter -- others can be improved by considering historical context -- and yet others my merely being more objective and less personal -- you are on the right track overall -- bulk up the references (need at least 10 for each title -- I think I saw 6 for each?) as those can help provide more material for commentary
