Caesar's Column A Story of the Twentieth Century 0.69

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In 'Cæsar's Column,' Ignatius Donnelly presents a thought-provoking dystopian narrative set in a future America characterized by social upheaval and stark class divisions. The novel unfolds through an engaging blend of political commentary and speculative fiction, anchored in a narrative that explores themes of power, revolution, and the moral obligations of citizens in the face of tyranny. Donnelly's prose is rich and vivid, weaving historical allusions and philosophical inquiries into the fabric of the story, making it not only a compelling tale but also a profound critique of contemporary society's trajectory. Donnelly, a notable American polymath and politician, was deeply influenced by the socio-political landscape of the late 19th century, particularly the rise of populist movements and disillusionment with industrial capitalism. His experiences as a member of the U.S. Congress and his involvement in various reformist causes informed his perspective on economic inequality and the consequences of unchecked power, which are vividly articulated in the starkly imagined world of 'Cæsar's Column.' This book is highly recommended for readers interested in dystopian literature, political philosophy, and the historical context of social movements. Donnelly's powerful narrative not only entertains but also serves as a clarion call for vigilance against the forces that threaten democracy and justice in society.
