I believe the correct answer is 20th Century: made.
"...when those muscles and joints were rendered capable of motion..." is used to mean - when Frankenstein was made, he was given the ability to move. The other options don't really convey the same meaning, so I believe the last option is correct.

Answer:

20th Century: made

Explanation:

"....., but when those muscles and joints were rendered capable of motion.." The word in italics can be replaced by made. This means that when Frankestein was being created, Victor Frankenstein wanted the monster's muscles and joints to move. The surprising point was, yet, that Frankenstein's own creator got shocked when the monster moved. This is the reason why this phenomenon was compared to Dante's imaginary reaction.
