Theme of the novel the invisible man by hg wells
Answers
Explanation:
Deeply interested in both science and the social condition, Wells explored questions related to humanity and science and the connections between the two. A central theme throughout many of Wells's works was power without morality.
To get a better idea of the fundamental nature of man vis a vis good versus evil, instead of asking yourself what you would if you had the power of invisibility, ponder the expectations of those you know best. What would you expect your family members, co-workers, and friends would do if possessed of the power of make themselves unseen by all. Chances are that very few people would file an account of this game of what-if that, if conducted honestly and truthfully, would shine a bright light of positivity expectations of their fellow man. Of course, the game also works the other way around: your own expectations of what those you know best might do will likely reveal a fundamental expectation that humans are by nature corrupt. This is the thematic game that Wells plays out in his novel, imagining that even a man devoted to scientific progress would instead use this great power at its lowest common denominator. If you really keep yourself up nights, imagine what the worst person you know might do with such a power.
