Items related to A Modern Utopia: (Dystopian Classics)
A Modern Utopia is a dystopian philosophical fiction in which Wells' presents a utopian plan for "a flexible common compromise, in which a perpetually novel succession of individualities may converge most effectually upon a comprehensive onward development." Wells' makes this distinction from past philosophies of utopia in that its people aim to be Utopian however they are in actuality the same people whom exist in an ordinary society. Dystopian Classic Editions publishes works of dystopian and utopian literature that have survived through the generations and been recognized as classics. A dystopian society is an imagined society in which the people are oppressed, however the government propagandizes the society as being a utopia or a perfect society. Typical themes in dystopian literature include public mistrust, police states, and overall unpleasantness for the citizens. Authors of dystopian works strive to present a worst-case scenario and negative depiction of the way things are in the story so as to make a criticism about a current situation in society and to call for a change. Each Dystopian Classic Edition selected for publication presents such a story.
