Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions
Sinossi
Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions is a satirical novella by Edwin Abbott Abbott, published in 1884. Set in a two-dimensional world, the society is made up of geometric figures, and a person’s social standing is linked to the number of sides they have. When a Square encounters beings from other dimensions, including residents of Lineland and Spaceland, his view of reality is disrupted and his assumptions are put under pressure. Using this imaginative premise, the book questions Victorian class and gender hierarchies while prompting readers to consider what lies beyond ordinary human perception.
