Looking Backward: 2000-1887 is a utopian novel by Edward Bellamy, first published in 1888. It was the third largest bestseller of its time, after Uncle Tom's Cabin and Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ.The book tells the story of Julian West, a young American who, towards the end of the 19th century, falls into a deep, hypnosis-induced sleep and wakes up more than a century later. He finds himself in the same location (Boston, Massachusetts) but in a totally changed world: It is the year 2000 and, while he was sleeping, the U.S.A. has been transformed into a socialist utopia. This book outlines Bellamy's complex thoughts about improving the future, and is an indictment of industrial capitalism. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia)Copyright Science Genre アート 文学史・文学批評 生物科学 科学

    "Scarlet Plague" by Jack London presents a haunting vision of a post-apocalyptic world ravaged by a devastating disease. Set in a future where civilization has collapsed, the story explores themes of survival, the fragility of society, and the enduring spirit of humanity. As the remnants of a once-thriving culture grapple with the consequences of their past, listeners are invited to reflect on the lessons of history and the importance of resilience in the face of adversity. This gripping tale remains relevant today, as it prompts us to consider our own vulnerabilities and the impact of our actions on future generations.
