Summary
플랫랜드(Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions)는 1884년에 영국 빅토리아 시대의 신학자이자 교육자였던 에드윈 A. 애보트(Edwin A. Abbott, 1838-1926)가 지은 수학 소설(Mathematical Fiction)인 동시에 최초의 SF소설이다. 신선하고 매력적인 이야기로 많은 사람의 사랑을 받은 이 책은 2차원 세계의 기하학개념을 다룬 독특한 작품인 동시에 영국 빅토리아 시대 당시의 계급제도 사회를 신랄하게 비판한 풍자문학이기도 하다. 훌륭한 교육자이자 《셰익스피어 시대의 문법》이라는 책을 출간하기도 했던 애벗은 그리스 고전과 셰익스피어 문학을 빅토리아 시대 영국에 투영해서 《플랫랜드》를 저술했다.
