Download or read book The Time Machine Unabridged written by H. G. Wells and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-05 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Time Machine is one of the most famous science fiction novels. This eBook edition has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. Wells is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel by using a vehicle that allows an operator to travel purposefully and selectively. The term "time machine", coined by Wells, is now almost universally used to refer to such a vehicle. The story reflects Wells's own socialist political views, his view on life and abundance, and the contemporary angst about industrial relations. The book's protagonist is an English scientist and gentleman inventor living in Richmond, Surrey in Victorian England, and identified by a narrator simply as the Time Traveller. The narrator recounts the Traveller's lecture to his weekly dinner guests that time is simply a fourth dimension, and his demonstration of a tabletop model machine for travelling through it. Herbert George Wells (1866 - 1946), known as H. G. Wells, was a prolific English writer in many genres, including the novel, history, politics, and social commentary, and textbooks and rules for war games.

Download or read book H G Wells An Englishman Looks at the World written by Hg Wells and published by . This book was released on 2020-12-11 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Englishman Looks at the World is a 1914 essay collection by H. G. Wells containing journalistic pieces written between 1909 and 1914. The book consists of twenty-six pieces ranging from five to sixty-two pages in length. An American edition was published the same year by Harper and Brothers under the title Social Forces in England and America.Wells organized the essays thematically, inserting a fanciful "synopsis" after the table of contents conveying his view that the book constituted an argument: "Blériot arrives and sets him thinking. He flies, and deduces certain consequences of cheap travel. He considers the King, and speculates on the New Epoch; he thinks Imperially, and then, coming to details, about Labour, Socialism, and Modern Warfare. He discourses on the Modern Novel, and the Public Library; criticises Chesterton, Belloc, and Sir Thomas More, and deals with the London Traffic Problem as a Socialist should. He doubts the existence of Sociology, discusses Divorce, Schoolmasters, Motherhood, Doctors, and Specialisation; questions if there is a People, and diagnoses the Political Disease of Our Times. He then speculates upon the future of the American Population, considers a possible set-back to civilisation, the Ideal Citizen, the still undeveloped possibilities of Science, and-in the broadest spirit-the Human Adventure. "Includes a biography of the author.

Download or read book Food Drink and the Written Word in Britain 1820 1945 written by Mary Addyman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-04-21 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the intersection between culinary history and literature across a period of profound social and cultural change. Split into four parts, essays focus on the relationships between eating and childhood reading in the Victorian era, the role of hunger in depicting social instability and reform, the cultivation of taste through advertising and the formation of cultural legacies through imaginative and emotional experiences of food and drink. Contributors show that studying consumption is necessary for a full understanding of class, gender, national identity and the body. The works of writers such as Elizabeth Gaskell, Edward Lear, Isabella Beeton and Bram Stoker are considered alongside advice manuals, Home Front narratives and advertising to provide an innovative work that will be of interest to scholars of social, cultural and medical history as well as literary studies.

Download or read book Certain Personal Matters written by H Wells and published by . This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Certain Personal Matters is an 1897 collection of essays selected by H. G. Wells from among the many short essays and ephemeral pieces he had written since 1893. The book consists of thirty-nine pieces ranging from about eight hundred to two thousand words in length. A one-shilling reprint (two shillings in cloth) was issued in 1901 by T. Fisher Unwin. The essays in Certain Personal Matters are written from a consistent first-person perspective, but only one (ironically, given the title) describes an identifiable event in Wells's life-how he responded to being diagnosed with tuberculosis in the fall of 1887. The other essays adopt the playful persona of an aspiring young writer living in modest circumstances with a wife, Euphemia, who is only sketchily and obliquely described. Their tone reflects the demands of the market in London magazines for "short essays, or short stories, often with a twist, which can be read in half a dozen minutes, but which will pique a reader's attention and ultimately allow him to think, 'How true. I have done that myself', or to make some similar remark." More than half of the essays are humorous social satire; serious subjects are addressed only ironically. Politics, historical and economic topics, and identifiable portraiture are eschewed. Ten essays have literary themes, and in these, too, the point of view is humorous. One ("On Schooling and the Phases of Mr. Sandsome") gently critiques the choice of subjects studied in the course of primary and secondary education. Half a dozen essays engage scientific themes, especially natural selection and evolution, and in "The Extinction of Man" Wells shows he is contemplating themes that would be expressed in his next novel, The War of the Worlds: "Even now, for all we can tell, the coming terror may be crouching for its spring and the fall of humanity may be at hand." Odin's Library Classics is dedicated to bringing the world the best of humankind's literature from throughout the ages.
