The novel, first published in 1872, employs a unique structure blending narrative with philosophical discourse, mirroring Victorian anxieties about industrialization and moral philosophy. Butlers clever inversion of societal norms serves as a critique of contemporary Victorian values, with themes of evolution, religion, and the impact of technology intricately woven into the fabric of Erewhon, a society that rejects machinery in favor of a more organic existence. Samuel Butler, a polymath known for his writings on art, culture, and theology, drew wealth from his diverse experiences, including time spent in New Zealand and his study of evolution. His deep engagement with Darwinian thought, coupled with his disdain for conventional religious beliefs, led him to construct Erewhon as a means of exploring these complex themes. Butlers background as a writer, artist, and thinker positioned him uniquely to challenge the epistemological perspectives of his time and to envision a society radically different from his own. Readers who seek to understand the socio-political dynamics of the Victorian era or who are intrigued by the philosophical questions surrounding progress and morality will find "Erewhon" to be an invaluable addition to their literary exploration. Butlers incisive wit and innovative narrative style invite readers to question their own societal norms while contemplating the implications of technological advancement, making this work timeless and exceptionally relevant.</p>...929158Erewhon2525https://www.gandhi.com.mx/erewhon-23/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/813357/8559dd3f-66d6-40dc-8618-4f2379714e47.jpg?v=638336327060870000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20228596547391876_W3siaWQiOiJhMTFiN2FhMC1iMGI0LTRiMzMtYWY1MC1lNjZkYTMyZDA3ZWYiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjI1LCJkaXNjb3VudCI6MCwic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjoyNSwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDMtMjdUMjE6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d8596547391876_<p>Erewhon or, Over the Range is a novel by Samuel Butler which was first published anonymously in 1872. The title of the book refers to the name of a country, supposedly discovered by the protagonist. In the novel, it is not revealed where Erewhon is, but it is clear that it is a fictional country. Butler meant the title to be read as NOWHERE backwards even though the letters h and w are transposed. At first glance, Erewhon appears to be a Utopia, yet it soon becomes clear that this is far from the case. In a 1945 broadcast, George Orwell praised and recommended the book and said that when Butler wrote Erewhon it needed imagination of a very high order to see that machinery could be dangerous as well as useful. Samuel Butler (18351902) was an iconoclastic English author of a variety of works. He is also known for examining Christian orthodoxy, substantive studies of evolutionary thought, studies of Italian art, and works of literary history and criticism. Butler also made prose translations of Homers Iliad and Odyssey that remain in use to this day.</p>...(*_*)8596547391876_<p>In Samuel Butlers novel Erewhon, the reader is taken on a journey to a utopian society where technology is forbidden and illness is seen as a crime. This satirical work explores the themes of social control, free will, and the impact of industrialization on society. Butlers witty and thought-provoking writing style challenges readers to question the norms of their own world, making Erewhon a timeless classic of speculative fiction with philosophical undertones. The novels narrative structure and blending of realistic elements with fantastical concepts create a unique reading experience that continues to captivate audiences to this day. Samuel Butlers background as a Victorian-era writer and thinker provides insight into the social and technological concerns that inspired Erewhon. His sharp critique of societal values and systems sheds light on the potential consequences of unchecked progress and conformity. Erewhon is a must-read for those interested in exploring the complexities of human nature, society, and the intersection of technology and ethics.</p>...(*_*)8596547391876_<p>In "Erewhon," Samuel Butler crafts a satirical yet profound exploration of society and the intricacies of human nature through the lens of a fictional utopian land.
