Now, the country West lived in turns out to be a socialist utopia with its advantages and disadvantages. Julian West is the major character of this story, who falls into a hypnotic dream and finds himself in future, in the year 2000. The attempt of Bellamy is really worthy of attention. Thomas More was the first philosopher, who presented the utopian society to his readers there were so many followers, who also wanted to present their own ideas how social conflict may be overcome in future and what economic reforms may safe our world from total destruction. When we talk about the work by Edward Bellamy, we cannot but mention such notions like utopia. To my mind, one of the major goals, which Bellamy wanted to achieve is to provide the reader with an opportunity to see one of the possible variants of our future and underline the fact that our present even not significant steps could considerably influence certain future events. Edward Bellamy tried to reflect the ideas that could be inherent to the 19 th century, and focused on such issues like inequality and the difficulties lots of industrial workers may face with.
