While I won't argue your decision not to include it among the five
examples examined in depth, since you make such a claim, and there
might be some who would ignorantly question it... I'm surprised you
did not substantiate your claim with at least a passing mention of
_Frankenstein; or, The Modern Promethius_ by Mary Wollstonecraft
Shelley.
