Very Scarce Early Book By German Science Fiction/Utopian Literature Pioneer Kurd Lasswitz 1848-1910. "As The First Major Sf Writer In German He Holds The Same Place In Germany As Do H. G. Wells In England And Jules Verne In France. He Taught Philosophy For Many Years At The Gymnasium Ernestinium In Gotha And It Is Symptomatic Of 19Th-Century Gerrman Intellectual Culture That He Irradiated His Fiction With Theoretical Speculation; There Is Not Kl Fiction Without A Lesson. William N. Fischer Claims On Kl's Behalf That Many Of His Ideas Directly Prefigure Later Critics' Use Of Terms Like 'Extrrapolation' And 'Analogue'.The Seriousness Of His Didactic Impulse Can Be Seen In The Strong Emphasis He Places In His Fiction On Establishing A Plausible Imaginary World Whose Hypothetical Nature Will Be Governed And Given Verisimilitude By Resemblance To Scientific Method Evident In Its Realization. Unsurprisingly The Stories That Embody These Overriding Concerns Tend To Be More Effective As Broad Technological And Scientific Canvases Than As Studies In Character; The Tales Collected In Bilder Aus Der Zukunft Read Consequently Almost Like Illustrated Tours Of Various 'Superior Terrestrial Cultures Located In The Future."
