The Lost Continent
Résumé
“The Lost Continent” is a 1899 fantasy novel that reimagines the legend of Atlantis by drawing on Plato’s account and incorporating elements of Greek mythology. The story uses a framing device to present Deucalion, a warrior-priest of ancient Atlantis, whose mission centers on preserving his civilization as disaster approaches. As humanity’s survival is linked to a great flood, Deucalion’s efforts are tested by the threat posed by Empress Phorenice, described as avaricious. The narrative unfolds while the fate of the continent hangs in the balance, with Atlantis facing inevitable destruction as it sinks beneath the waves.
