Abbott''s best-known work is his 1884 novella Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions which describes a two-dimensional world and explores the nature of dimensions. It has often been categorised as science fiction although it could more precisely be called "mathematical fiction". With the advent of modern science fiction from the 1950s to the present day, Flatland has seen a revival in popularity, especially among science fiction and cyberpunk fans. Many works have been inspired by the novella, including novel sequels and short films. (Wikipedia)

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Edwin A. Abbott

Edwin A. Abbott (1838-1926) nasceu e viveu em Londres, Inglaterra. Dedicou-se principalmente ao ensino, tendo sido diretor da prestigiada City of London School, de 1865 (com apenas 26 anos) a 1889. Foi um estudioso de Shakespeare e um ávido escritor, tendo publicado mais de 50 títulos. Apesar de ter vivido no período vitoriano, altamente conservador e sectário, acreditava numa sociedade mais equilibrada – bem patente no irónico universo que criou em Flatland -, tendo defendido a educação para todos, independentemente do género do indivíduo ou do seu estrato social.
