Autorenporträt
Herbert George Wells, known widely as H. G. Wells (1866-1946), was a prolific English writer in many genres, including the novel, history, and social commentary. He is best remembered as a forward-thinking pioneer of science fiction, which earned him the title 'The Father of Science Fiction' alongside contemporaries Jules Verne and Hugo Gernsback. Wells's literary career commenced with 'The Time Machine' (1895), which along with 'The War of the Worlds' (1898), 'The Island of Doctor Moreau' (1896), and 'The Invisible Man' (1897), represent his most enduring works and showcase his imagination and insight into the human condition, as well as future scientific and technological advancements. His speculative fiction often carried a didactic tone, foregrounding his socialist political views and advocacy for progressive social reform. His 'H. G. WELLS Ultimate Collection' reflects an extensive repository of his narratives, which traverse utopian dreams and dystopian realities alike, revealing his anxiety about the fruits of industrial and scientific development unchecked by ethical considerations. As a futurist, his predictions have had a lasting impact on both literature and society's view of the potential trajectory of human progress. Additionally, Wells engaged in educational and political activism and penned several socialogical texts, though it is for his pioneering speculative fiction that he is most fondly remembered in literary history.
