Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. "The Autocracy of Mr. Parham: His Remarkable Adventures in This Changing World" is a sharp and imaginative satirical novel by H. G. Wells that explores the volatile political climate of the early 20th century. The story follows Mr. Parham, a pedantic and staunchly conservative Oxford academic, who finds himself transformed into the "Lord Paramount," a dictatorial leader of Great Britain. Through a series of surreal and visionary events, Wells examines the rise of authoritarianism and the dangers of nationalist fervor in an era of rapid global change.As the Lord Paramount, Parham attempts to reshape the world according to his own traditionalist ideals, leading to international conflict and social upheaval. Wells uses this narrative framework to critique the ideologies of his time, blending speculative elements with cutting political commentary. The work remains a significant example of Wells's later fiction, showcasing his preoccupation with the future of civilization and the potential for human folly in the face of shifting power dynamics. Rich with irony and wit, this novel provides a compelling look at the intersection of individual ambition and global geopolitics.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
