Herbert George Wells was born in 1866 in London. He attended Bromley Academy, a private day school. After attending the Normal School of Science in South Kensington, he became a science teacher. At the Normal School, he studied under Thomas Henry Huxley, a famous advocate of the scientific theory of evolution.
Several early versions of The Time Machine were published in the early 1890s, but the completed novella did not appear until 1895, when Wells was 34 years old. It was the first tale of time travel, and it is considered one of the forerunners of the science fiction genre.
The Time Machine's literary influences are numerous. Most obvious is Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels, written a century earlier. The Time Machine is a fusion of tales from fantastic lands, commentary on current British social questions, and an introduction to cutting-edge scientific theories.
Wells went on to publish more works of science fiction, including The Island of Doctor Moreau (1896), The Invisible Man (1897), and The War of the Worlds (1898). He also published comic works of fiction such as The History of Mr. Polly (1910) and An Outline of History (1920).
Thomas Henry Huxley,就是大名顶顶的赫胥黎,也是胡适的老师
注意电影的结尾:他的仆人说要等着她的主人回来,也就是电影人认为主人公的同时代都认为这个人已经失踪了,而他其实已经去了未来,别人都不知道真相。这是一个很美的传说,是不是可以寓意我们的心有多远就可以飞到多远?(比如这个科学家想象并且这样做了所以他看到了未来并且...
评分韦尔斯在科幻作家中,虽不如凡尔纳但也名气蜚声世界,并且算是另一种流派,凡尔纳注重科技本身,以及科技实现后的可笑或者可悲结局。而韦尔斯则关注的是社会政治影响等,算是科技的社会流派。 《时间机器》:表现的是在时间机器的带领下,发明家在未来的见闻。其实主旨是反映贫...
评分1809年达尔文出生的时候,拉马克的《动物学哲学》刚刚面世;1831年他登上“贝格尔号”的时候,玛丽•雪莱的《弗兰肯斯坦》被重新修订出版;而1859年《物种起源》发表时,科幻小说只还只是雪莱的婴儿,凡尔纳的世界冒险在等待成功,而威尔斯干脆还在天堂里观察将要投身其中的...
评分《时间机器》(The Time Machine, 1895)是韦尔斯(Herbert George Wells)的一本小书,他本身就是很有意思的一个人,是新闻记者、史学大家、也是社会学家、小说家。《时间机器》是他比较早的一本小书,但被认定为“科幻小说的诞生”。 故事适合一口气看完,开篇一群...
评分英国人Herbert George Wells在1895年的科幻名作。第一次知道这部作品是通过《科幻世界》。那一期的《科幻世界》上登了一幅彩图,一位英国绅士寂然地站立在海边,身旁是他的奇形怪状的时间机器,而他所面对的则是一轮很庞大很庞大的太阳烘烤下的海水。整个世界成了诡异的紫红色...

评分I like this one for it as the foundation of scientific stories built the imagination framework and timeline for others. Maybe time machine is so cliche that the afterwards creations always try to imitate the way.
