Minodora Barbul (EDT), Ramona Demarcsek (EDT), Ligia Tomoiaga (EDT) From Francis Bacon to William Golding

Annotation

This volume is dedicated to Francis Bacon, to William Golding and to the tradition of writing utopias and dystopias. Although some of the articles contained herein were presented at the conference from which this book originated, there are also other contributions which join these to complete a 21st century vision on utopia, from the point of view of specialists in philology, philosophy, anthropology, etc. The novelty of such an undertaking comes from the fact that the editors enabled researchers from different fields to come together and create an interdisciplinary volume which contains very rigorous academic work alongside more relaxed essays.
