Where did the idea of the "mad scientist" come from?

October 6th, 2010
The mad scientist is one of the archetypes of villains in storytelling, whether it’s film, writing, cartoons, video games, or other media. But where did this come from? Who created the first story of the “mad scientist” and when? Was the idea of the mad scientist a reaction to some cultural thing?
I’m just curious since I’ve been looking at pictures of laboratories. :)
