| Summary |
"Az időgép" by H. G. Wells is a science fiction novel written in the late 19th century. The book introduces a nameless Time Traveler who explores the concepts of time and space and constructs a machine capable of traveling through time. Through a series of discussions and philosophical debates, the protagonist seeks to challenge accepted notions of reality and time, leading to his adventures in the distant future. At the start of the narrative, the Time Traveler presents his ideas on time as a fourth dimension during a gathering of friends, engaging them in a debate about the very nature of reality. His initial observations touch upon the limitations of human perception and challenge conventional mathematical ideas. The scene sets the stage for the unveiling of his time machine, which he demonstrates to skeptical listeners. The opening establishes a tone of curiosity and scientific inquiry that propels the story into explorations of future civilizations and the evolution of humanity as the Time Traveler sets out on his extraordinary journey.
