Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback H(erbert) G(eorge) Wells (1866-1946) English novelist, journalist, sociologist, and historian, whose science fiction stories have been filmed many times. Wells's best known works are THE TIME MACHINE (1895), one of the first modern science fiction stories, THE INVISIBLE MAN (1897), and THE WAR OF THE WORLDS (1898). Wells wrote over a hundred of books, about fifty of them novels. "No one would have believed, in the last years of the nineteenth century, that human affairs were being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's and yet as mortal as his own; that as men busied themselves about their affairs they were scrutinized and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinize the transient creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water." (from War of the Worlds Along with George Orwell 's Nineteen-Eighty-Four and Aldous Huxley 's Brave New World , which was a pessimistic answer to scientific optimism, Wells's novels are among the classics of science-fiction. Later Wells's romantic and enthusiastic conception of technology turned more doubtful. His bitter side is seen early in the novel BOON (1915), which was a parody of

G. Wells: Early Writings in Science and Science Fiction gesammelt. Wells' frühe Geschichten kreisten um Begegnungen zwischen Menschen und seltsamen Lebensformen, wie in »The Stolen Bacillus«, »In the Avu Observatory«, »The Flowering of the Strange Orchid« und »Aepyornis Island« (alle 1894). Die erste Storysammlung erschien unter dem Titel The Stolen Bacillus (1895, dt. Der gestohlene Bazillus Mit T HE S CIENCE S CHOOLS J OURNAL brachte Wells eine eigene Amateurpublikation heraus. Darin veröffentlichte er 1888 eine Reihe von Essays mit dem Obertitel »The Chronic Argonauts«. Diese Aufsätze bilden die inhaltliche Basis für Wells' ersten Roman The Time Machine An Invention (1895, dt. Die Zeitmaschine , 1904). Ein englischer Gentleman-Erfinder baut eine Zeitmaschine und reist damit 800.000 Jahre in die Zukunft. Dort wird er mit den letztlichen Auswirkungen des Klassenkampfes konfrontiert: Aus dem unterdrückten Proletariat sind die »Morlocks« entstanden, mutierte ausgebeutete Menschen, die unter der Erde die lebensnotwendigen Maschinen bedienen. Die Klasse der Besitzenden führt als Volk der »Eloi« an der Oberfläche ein Leben in Überfluss und Dekadenz. Beide menschlichen Rassen gehen durch die Abkühlung der Sonne zugrunde. Der Roman ist eine frühe Dystopie, die Samjatin, Huxley und Orwell vorwegnimmt. Durch die Verlegung der geschilderten Welt in die Zukunft musste Wells keine auf Inseln oder in fernen Ländern abgeschottete Gesellschaft erschaffen, um seine Geschichte zu erzählen, sondern konnte eine direkte Linie von den Ereignissen seiner Zeit bis zu ihren Folgen in der Zukunft ziehen.

He dropped into the corner over against me with a sigh, made an incomplete attempt to arrange his travelling shawl, and became motionless, with his eyes staring vacantly. Presently he was moved by a sense of my observation, looked up at me, and put out a spiritless hand for his newspaper. Then he glanced again in my direction. I feigned to read. I feared I had unwittingly embarrassed him, and in a moment I was surprised to find him speaking.

19. Planet Poetry: Ebony Cumulus Cloud [Herbert George Wells (1866-1946)] Herbert George Wells, more popularly known as simply HG Wells, is considered by someto be the father of modern science fiction Herbert George Wells (18661946) http://www.ppoetry.org/pp/prose/0029.htm

Herbert George Wells, more popularly known as simply H. G. Wells, is considered by some to be the father of modern science fiction. I personally do not know much about science fiction and the history thereof, but I would say that Wells was an extremely talented writer, as these selected extracts show. Herbert George Wells (1866-1946) Ebony Cumulus Cloud (from The War of the Worlds Everything had suddenly become very still. Far away to the southeast, marking the quiet, we heard the Martians hooting to one another, and then the air quivered again with the distant thud of their guns. But the earthly artillery made no reply. Now at the time we could not understand these things, but later I was to learn the meaning of these ominous kopjes that gathered in the twilight. Each of the Martians, standing in the great crescent I have described, had discharged ... a huge canister over whatever hill, copse, cluster of houses, or other possible cover for guns, chanced to be in front of him. ... These canisters smashed on striking the ground -they did not explode - and incontinently disengaged an enormous volume of heavy, inky vapour, coiling and pouring upward in a huge and ebony cumulus cloud, a gaseous hill that sank and spread itself slowly over the surrounding country. And the touch of that vapour, the inhaling of its pungent wisps, was death to all that breathes. Once the tumultuous upheaval of its dispersion was over, the black smoke clung so closely to the ground, even before its precipitation, that fifty feet up in the air, on the roofs and upper stories of high houses and on great trees, there was a chance of escaping its poison altogether, as was proved even that night at Street Cobham and Ditton.

Herbert George Wells was born in 1866 in Bromley, Kent. He became an author after consuming many books during a spell of inactivity whilst recovering from a childhood accident. Herbert George Wells (1866-1946) Thunderclap of Silence (from The War of the Worlds As I crossed the bridge, the [Martian] sound of "Ulla, ulla, ulla, ulla," ceased. It was, as it were, cut off. The silence came like a thunderclap. The dusky houses about me stood faint and tall and dim; the trees towards the park were growing black. ... Night, the mother of fear and mystery, was coming upon me. But while that [Martian] voice sounded the solitude, the desolation, had been endurable; by virtue of it London had still seemed alive, and the sense of life about me had upheld me. Then suddenly a change, the passing of something - I knew not what - and then a stillness that could be felt. Nothing but this gaunt quiet. London about me gazed at me spectrally. The windows in the white houses were like the eye sockets of skulls. About me my imagination found a thousand noiseless enemies moving. Terror seized me, a horror of my temerity. In front of me the road became pitchy black as though it was tarred, and I saw a contorted shape lying across the pathway. I could not bring myself to go on. I turned down St. John's Wood Road, and ran headlong from this unendurable stillness towards Kilburn. I hid from the night and the silence, until long after midnight, in a cabmen's shelter in Harrow Road. But before the dawn my courage returned, and while the stars were still in the sky I turned once more towards Regent's Park.
