Beschreibung

"e;The City of Pleasure, A Fantasia on Modern Themes"e; Part III"e; by Arnold Bennett delves deeper into the complexities of modernity and the urban transformation that characterized the Edwardian Society. As the city evolves into an urban utopia driven by industrialization and consumerism, Bennett explores the darker aspects of this progression. The narrative reveals the cultural decay and social disintegration that accompany the relentless pursuit of pleasure. Moral ambiguity and alienation pervade the lives of the city's inhabitants, reflecting the erosion of civic responsibility in favor of self-indulgence. Bennett uses satire to critique the excesses of pleasure-seeking and the false promises of futurism, exposing the hollow core of a society obsessed with progress. Through his portrayal of a city on the brink of moral collapse, he offers a sharp moral critique of the time, questioning the sustainability of a world driven by unchecked modernity and superficial values.
