Inhaltsangabe oder Einleitung
This paper aims to study how the works of H. G. Wells do not simply convey the support of dominant culture while reflecting its inner tensions and contradictions. Literature plays an active role in the creation of power relations. However, it does not reflect the culture in which it is produced, but actively contributes to the constitution of culture and history. On the other hand, the works of H. G. Wells represent their author as the modernist practitioner of Victorian standards. The works have the capacity of reflecting dissident by suggesting the inner contradictions of social order in their world of fantasy. The present study is conducted on some major works of Wells including "The Time Machine", "The War of the Worlds", "The Island of Doctor Moreau", and "The Invisible Man".
