Frankenstein was written by Mary Shelley and is considered as a romantic/gothic novel. The romantics believed that nature on its own had done the best of work and that to alter it was to corrupt it. This is different from Mary Shelley's dad's view, author William Godwin, who believed that the perfectibility of Man was obvious and that god maybe was not so benine. This was a more gnostic view, and it is surprising that Mary Shelley went against that at the early age of 17.

In a readers response, you say how you feel about the novel or section you have read. So, unless you feel like the social and historical context have affected the novel or you just like it then no, it should't matter or affect the readers response at all. It would be a good idea to mention it in your response but you should ask your teacher or someone you think knows a better response what they think.
