Edward Bellamy

    26. březen 1850 – 22. květen 1898

    Edward Bellamy byl vlivný americký autor a křesťanský socialista, jehož díla se zabývala společenskými reformami. Jeho nejznámější román, široce považovaný za dílo socialistické utopické fikce, byl ve své době hojně zmiňován v marxistických publikacích. Jeho úspěch byl po svém prvním vydání druhý po několika málo titánech americké literatury. Spisovatelská dráha tohoto autora inspirovala celosvětové socialistické hnutí a dokonce vedla ke vzniku politických stran.

      "Als Julian West in einen künstlich herbeigeführten hundertjährigen Schlaf fällt, findet er nach dem Aufwachen die Welt um sich herum nach all der Zeit verständlicherweise deutlich verändert vor. Boston und überhaupt die USA sind in dieser, leider sehr fiktionalen Erzählung, ein ideales, perfektes Gemeinwesen. So sehr Bellamy hier auch von der Wirklichkeit entfernt ist - einige Aspekte unseres heutigen Lebens hat er tatsächlich zutreffend prognostiziert - so etwa die Kreditkarte, die erst viele Jahre nach seinem Roman erfunden wurde."
