H.G. Wells' Time Machine and Its Relativity with the Victorian Era Herbert George Wells was an English writer from the nineteenth century. He was born on September the 21st 1866 in Bromley, Kent. He first wrote a book when he was eleven; although this was not published it was a great achievement. He won a scholarship to the school of science, but he failed due to his other interests such as history, journalism, sociology and writing. His dad was a pro cricketer and a domestic servant. This may have had an influence on his work like in "The Time Machine" with the class divisions. His support in socialism influenced his work especially "The Time Machine" as he was a great supporter of Karl Marx. He married his cousin Isabel in 1891. But sadly he left her three years later. He was a member of the Fabians society and also the Pen society. He wrote many books, all in the science fiction genre such as "The First Man on the Moon" or "The Invisible Man". Some were turned into films such as "The War of the Worlds". He wrote in this Genre because he and the Victorians wanted to explore time and space but couldn't in reality so he wrote to relate to others at the time and help them imagine almost possibly a dream and what could happen in the end of that dream. He died on the 13th of August 1946. Queen Victoria reigned from 1819 to 1901. In the Victorian era people were divided into classes: upper and lower class. This era was a time of invention and of innovation because of the industrial revolution. The Victorian era was a quite advanced time as they had a great interest in exploration and they were very interested in inventions and what ... ... middle of paper ... ...e after "The Time Machine" was released the lower class got more opportunity to go to school and to learn to read and so it is only relevant to that period). He offers Communism as an alternative to the poor treatment of the lower class. This is a moral warning, so Wells is letting the Victorian upper class have the option to see it as a warning, but like the dinner guests, they also have the option to deny it. Wells lets this happen because he knows the upper class will not take it seriously and Wells does not want to challenge their status because after all it is just a book and if it is totally on the lower classes side the upper class would not buy it and he would not get his message across at all. Conclusion I can conclude that "The Time Machine" as a novel is very representative of the late Victorian era.

During his first night at the school while he was sleeping he began dreaming back to the night that his crew died. Specifically himself and his partner in the rescue dingy during the middle of the night, his partner is obviously in extreme distress and Senior Chief Randall stabs his chest with what I believe to be some type of medicine injector and he could possibly be injecting epinephrine ( a type of adrenaline) to keep the rate and force of the blood flow up to increase the blood pressure hopefully keeping them alive until help arrived and more measures could be taken ( quoted from 3 different first responders named in works cited). Yet despite his efforts his partner still died. The way Senior Chief Randall reacted it can be assumed this was not his first nightmare of the incident.
Generally in school there is an emphasis on reading and writing, which are just one of numerous learning
Edgar Allan Poe was setting out for Baltimore. On October third a man named Joseph Walker had found Poe lying outside by Gunners hall, not normally dressed and unconscious. Poe was unaware of surroundings and was fatigue. Joseph had made contact with a doctor and had sent Poe to the hospital. Four days later Poe had died in the hospital. No scientist had figured out the true reason why Poe died, and we will never actually know because no one had an autopsy for Poe after his death. Many people believed he died of alcoholism, rabies, brain tumor, and the flu, but all of these add up to meningitis and encephalitis.

...ned. A group study published by the Teachers College Record Journal compares high school students who attended small classes to those who did not. The results reveal that students who participated in smaller classes were “2.5 months ahead in all school subjects, and as much as five months ahead in some, compared to their counterparts who attended regular classes” (Finn et al. 168). Similar research supports that idea that small classes produce even greater long-term benefits when class-size reduction is extended for additional years during primary education. Longitudinal studies reveal that a longer duration in small class primary education equates to more considerable, enduring benefits in secondary education (Finn et al. 166). The seemingly short-term participation in class-size reduction enhances a student’s entire academic career and chance for achievement.
In “The Time Machine” by H.G. Wells, the author portrays, for the most part, that the choices humans make now cannot drastically change the outcomes in the far future. The obvious representation of social and political classes, even as the time traveler goes 800,000 years into the future, describes this more. The fact that, even 800,000 years later, there are still apparent classes that can determine an individual’s worth guides the reader towards the conclusion that even if an individual were to change the present, it would be impossible to avoid the very same mistake from being repeated in the future.
Students learn if they can work in large groups or if they work better individually. They also learn what kind of learner they are when it comes to taking in information given to them by the teacher. Not every student is the same, and they learn that is it okay to be different and to be proud of the person they are. Students learn how to deal with conflicts and resolve the matter in a calm fashion.
During the summer I read ‘The Time Machine” written by H.G wells, with an introduction by Melvin Burgess. This novel is a science fiction novel due to how he uses math to prove that time travel is possible. Our story takes place in 3 of many places. The setting of this story takes place in one single place, but it changes throughout time. It commenced in a suburb of London called Richmond. As the story goes on his surroundings change and now is in a big house where London used to be where Eloi and Morlocks live. Lastly he ends up on a desolate beach in the distant future. The time of the story is from 1980’s throughout million years into the future. ‘The Time Machine’ takes place in many years through the world’s evolution.
