À propos de ce contenu audio

 Step into an alternate reality where history took a different path—no American, French, or Russian revolutions, no Victorian Age, and a world untouched by the Great War. In this thought-provoking exploration, originally penned by Samuel Madden in 1763, envision Europe from 1900 to 1925 under the reign of his fictional George VI. (For context, the real George VI, father of Elizabeth II, ruled from 1936 to 1952.) Maddens work cleverly extrapolates the social, political, and economic trends of the 18th century, crafting a mock history of the early 20th century. As noted by editor Charles William Chadwick Oman in his 1899 preface, authors have long speculated about the future based on contemporary societal trends. Ironically, Oman was unaware of Maddens identity, leading to amusing and flawed speculations. This captivating alternative view of history raises questions about what could have been compared to what actually transpired—a mix of humor, fear, and eerie familiarity awaits the reader.
