Ignatius Donnelly

    3 november 1831 – 1 januari 1901

    Ignatius Donnelly was een opvallende Amerikaanse schrijver met populistische en wetenschappelijke neigingen. Zijn werk dook vaak in controversiële theorieën, waaronder die rond Atlantis, het auteurschap van Shakespeare en catastrofisme. Donnelly's schrijven onderzocht alternatieve perspectieven op geschiedenis en wetenschap, waarmee hij een unieke plaats verwierf in het literaire landschap. Zijn intellectuele nieuwsgierigheid en zoektocht naar verborgen waarheden resoneren nog steeds.

    • Set in a dystopian future America, the story follows Gabriel Weltstein, a disillusioned New York doctor who seeks alternatives to a society plagued by inequality and corruption. His journey leads him to a hidden subterranean civilization led by a figure named Cæsar, which embodies egalitarian principles starkly contrasting the oppressive world above. Ignatius Donnelly critiques the rampant capitalism and social injustices of the Gilded Age, exploring themes of utopia, dystopia, and the dangers of unchecked power, making this novel a poignant reflection on societal issues.

      Originally published in 1882, this early work by politician Ignatius Donnelly is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. Inspired by the writings of Plato, it details the history and technology of this lost land and is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the theory that ancient civilisations are descended from the peoples of Atlantis. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
