English | EPUB | 0.2 MB


H.G. Wells is often portrayed as a utopian visionary, full of hope for man's progress through science and human knowledge. Is this portrayal accurate?

In this book, Lorne Reznowski presents his contention that Wells lost hope in humanity's future. Wells, having no faith in any supernatural order, becomes a tragic figure when the human institutions and ideals he advanced must be reconciled with the tragic events of the first half of the 20th century and the threat of nuclear annihilation.

This writing was presented as Lorne's Master of Arts Thesis English Literature, in 1961, at the University of Ottawa, Canada.
