Morlock Essays

In The Time Machine the Time Traveller has a theory that the Eloi and the Morlocks have a master/ slave relationship. Eloi have machines to do their work. and Eloi and Morlocks evolvedfrom humans. These theories relate to Darwins theory of evolution. In the novel The Time Machine, the Time Traveller believes the Eloi and the Morlocks have a master slave relationship, but in the end he comes to find Morlocks tend to Eloi like people would tend to certain animals. The clear intentions of using them

Malignance of Morlocks “ You can scarce imagine how nauseatingly inhuman [the Morlocks] looked—those pale, chinless faces and great, lidless, pinkish-grey eyes!” (Wells, 36). The novel The Time Machine by H.G. Wells explores the idea of time travel and the evolution of humanity. The Time Traveller travels to 802, 701 AD. In the future, the Traveller finds two species of humans: Elois and Morlocks. The Elois evolved from the aristocracy of the Victorian era; the Morlocks evolved from the working

The time traveler discovers that the eloi and the morlocks are creatures that were created by the struggles of the lower class and the lack of struggles that the upper class had. He realized that it is possible for mankind to adapt to the conditions that they are accustomed to like how the eloi how become weak and feeble due to the fact that they don’t work or do anything for themselves besides eat, sleep and breed. The same applies for the morlocks because they are used to operating heavy machinery

traveller has a lot of theories from his travel into the future. He meets two types of people, the Eloi and the Morlocks. Some of his ideas don’t make a lot of sense to me, but they follow the ideas of Charles Darwin, from his book Origin of Species. The time traveler thinks that the Eloi used to be the upper class people and that they became weak and unintelligent over the years. The Morlocks were the lower class factory workers. They continued their habit of working and serving people. This follows

of humanity. The Eloi are derived from the upper class and the Morlocks are derived from the working class. I found it extremely interesting how the time traveller gives a lot of sympathy for the Eloi than for the Morlocks, especially because of his blatant disgust for how weak the Eloi are. It’s also interesting because in this current day society, a lot of the sympathy is given to the working class, which is represented by the Morlocks in the time era that the time

“Wells presents dystopian future society where the childish Eloi are preyed upon by inhuman Morlocks, expressing his criticism of the upper class’ abuse of the lower class in their quest to create a perfect society for themselves.” In order to produce a creative response, I tried to capture a sense of the entire thesis, but chose to focus the most on Well’s use of the symbolism of the Eloi and the Morlocks in order to communicate a message about the world of his time. Over the course of week in several

He later calls them the “Morlocks” (Wells 57) and finds out that these Morlocks come out at night from the wells and hunt the Elois. The story is mainly focused on the devolution of the society and the humans. Sigmund Freud explained that the “order” is one of the important characteristic of the civilization (40). However, in the Elois’ and Morlocks’ society, there are no one to keep order, and no laws that govern the whole society. Not

called Eloi and Morlocks. The Eloi look all the same, woman like, and were not very intelligent. Their land was beautiful but the buildings were dilapidated. They were very nice and gentle people who only ate fruit. The Morlocks on the other hand were completely opposite.

They started away, and then I could feel them approaching me again. They clutched at me more boldly, whispering odd sounds to each other. I shouted violently, and shouted again rather discordantly."

The Time Machine, written by H. G. Wells, is a timely classic that was written during late Victorian England. It is an early examply of science fiction and it introduced the idea of time travel with a machine. Although it may seem like a fiction book wirtten for the sole purpose of entertainment, The Time Machine dealt with problems such as inequality and incorporated the theme of society and class. During late Victorian Englad, there was tension between the upper class and the lower class -who

the Eloi and the Morlocks. Even so, the Morlocks are spoken to show the lower class living below, even underneath the upper class, the Eloi. “What had happened to the Under-grounders I did not yet suspect; but from what I had seen of the Morlocks—that, by the by, was the name by which these creatures were called—I could imagine that the modification of the human type was even far more profound than among the ‘Eloi,’ the beautiful race that I already knew”(Wells 80). The Morlocks will come out at

well as create the clothing and tools for the Eloi. In the encompassing environment, the Eloi have become the rich class and have forced the Morlocks underground to be a laboring class. Writer James Harkin explains the situation very clearly, stating, “The nice-but-dim Eloi lived a carefree life above ground, their only worry being the bestial, lumpen Morlocks who toiled all day long underground to keep them in the style to which they had become accustomed” (Harkin 1). In the process, a totally communist

Brave New World is both, utopia and dystopia. The author Aldous Huxley intended to depict an imagined new world after Ford, an industrial era, where all people would be happy and extremely satisfied or as content as the ideal society would let them be. Yet, to determine utopia and dystopia in Brave New World, we have to look at the new world from our own time and from the time before Ford, seen through the eyes of John the Savage, our predecessor. The world we observe herein reflects a futuristic

Anthem and The Time Machine both have many themes to them, but there are two prominent messages that stuck out in the pair of books. I found the way in which they had the same moral, except in different ways. In my sense of the writings, an idea of the stories is that individuality is human nature. In Anthem and The Time Machine, it shows in that Equality 7-2521 and The Time Traveller are both unlike everyone else, but in their own ways. Neither of them could help their individuality, they just were

On June 19, 2070 a time traveling machine was released to the surface of this earth. This time traveling machine went back to the Time of the Guptas (320-720). Nathaniel Johnson, a twenty-three year old inventor that helped build this machine and the traveler to test this machine is the man I am to interview.
