This book was released on 2024-01-05 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We is a dystopian novel which is set in a dystopian future police state. D-503 lives in the One State, an urban nation constructed almost entirely of glass, which allows the secret police/spies to inform on and supervise the public more easily. The structure of the state is analogous to the prison design concept developed by Jeremy Bentham commonly referred to as the Panopticon. Furthermore, life is organized to promote maximum productive efficiency along the lines of the system advocated by the hugely influential F. W. Taylor. People march in step with each other and wear identical clothing. There is no way of referring to people save by their given numbers. Males have odd numbers prefixed by consonants; females have even numbers prefixed by vowels. Along with Jack London's The Iron Heel, We is generally considered to be the grandfather of the satirical futuristic dystopia genre. Yevgeny Zamyatin (1884-1937) was a Russian author of science fiction and political satire. Due to his use of literature to criticize Soviet society, Zamyatin has been referred to as one of the first Soviet dissidents.

Download or read book We (A Dystopian Science Fiction Classic) - The Original 1924 Unabridged Edition written by Yevgeny Zamyatin and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2024-01-04 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yevgeny Zamyatin's 'We' is a groundbreaking work of dystopian science fiction, originally published in 1924 in Russia. The novel is set in a futuristic society where individuality is suppressed, and citizens are referred to by numbers rather than names. Zamyatin's literary style is characterized by its experimental narrative structure, including diary entries, letters, and mathematical equations, all of which serve to highlight the dehumanizing effects of a totalitarian regime. 'We' is often considered the precursor to other classic dystopian novels such as George Orwell's '1984' and Aldous Huxley's 'Brave New World' due to its exploration of themes such as surveillance, conformity, and the struggle for personal freedom. Zamyatin's work is a powerful commentary on the dangers of a society ruled by logic and control, and its relevance in today's world is undeniable. This unabridged edition of 'We' offers readers the chance to experience the full impact of Zamyatin's original vision. Fans of dystopian literature and those interested in exploring the roots of the genre will find 'We' to be a thought-provoking and visionary masterpiece.

Book excerpt: National Bestseller "Beautifully written and delightfully strange...as earthy as it is sublime...in the truest sense, an eye-opener." --Daily News From Annie Dillard, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Pilgrim at Tinker Creek and one of the most compelling writers of our time, comes For the Time Being, her most profound narrative to date. With her keen eye, penchant for paradox, and yearning for truth, Dillard renews our ability to discover wonder in life's smallest--and often darkest--corners. Why do we exist? Where did we come from? How can one person matter? Dillard searches for answers in a powerful array of images: pictures of bird-headed dwarfs in the standard reference of human birth defects; ten thousand terra-cotta figures fashioned for a Chinese emperor in place of the human court that might have followed him into death; the paleontologist and theologian Teilhard de Chardin crossing the Gobi Desert; the dizzying variety of clouds. Vivid, eloquent, haunting, For the Time Being evokes no less than the terrifying grandeur of all that remains tantalizingly and troublingly beyond our understanding. "Stimulating, humbling, original--. [Dillard] illuminate[s] the human perspective of the world, past, present and future, and the individual's relatively inconsequential but ever so unique place in it."--Rocky Mountain News

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The question of selfhood in Renaissance texts constitutes a scholarly and critical debate of almost unmanageable proportions. The author of this work begins by questioning the strategies with which male writers depict powerful women. Although Spenser's Britomart, Shakespeare's Cleopatra, and Milton's Eve figure selfhood very differently and to very different ends, they do have two significant elements in common: mirrors and transformations that diminish the power of the female self.
