Autorenporträt
H. G. Wells, born Herbert George Wells on September 21, 1866, in Kent, England, was a prolific writer whose work spanned multiple genres including science fiction, politics, social commentary, and history. Educated in the sciences and profoundly influenced by the teachings of Thomas Henry Huxley, Wells harnessed his scientific background to pioneer speculative fiction that often focused on futuristic settings, technological advancements, and social evolution. His literary style, characterized by eloquent prose and imaginative scenarios, was underpinned by a concern for social justice and human progress. Wells's contributions include seminal science fiction novels such as 'The Time Machine', 'The War of the Worlds', 'The Invisible Man', and 'The Island of Doctor Moreau', all of which have had a lasting impact on the genre and popular culture. These works, compiled in 'The Collected Works of H. G. Wells', not only entertain but also provoke thought on the implications of scientific progress and the potential directions of human development. Outside fiction, Wells authored numerous works of non-fiction, including 'The Outline of History', which sought to provide a panoramic overview of world events. His fascination with the possible futures of mankind and critical examination of societal structures have secured his place as one of the forefathers of modern science fiction and a respected commentator on the human condition. H. G. Wells's influence extends beyond literature into the realms of social and political thought, and his legacy endures in the realms of literature and popular media.
