    In this article, Veronica Hollinger discusses Science Fiction in a few different frames, all relating to one another.\u00a0 The biggest frame is that of a Newtonian VS Einsteinian view on physics.\u00a0 Through this discussion, she relates to H.G. Wells\u2019s The Time Machine among other various novels also dealing with time travel.\u00a0 She also brings up paradoxes we face in real-world terms of looking at time travel.\u00a0 This will help in my argument for the relation between Wells\u2019s The Time Machine and how it\u2019s use of time travel has impacted not only modern SF but also helped inspire the modern scientific thoughts on time travel.<\/p>\n

    2. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Firchow, Peter. “H. G. Wells’s Time Machine: In Search of Time Future and Time Past.”\u00a0Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought<\/em>\u00a045.2 (2004): 123-26.MLA<\/em>. Web. 15 Nov. 2014.<\/p>\n

    In this article, Peter Firchow discusses Wells as an innovator both in both literary and scientific terms.\u00a0 He discusses how Wells used the scientific advancements of his time to \u201cprovide an up-to-date,\u00a0 technologically and scientifically grounded rationale for doing something that had hitherto been justified as occurring either by means of magic or though some sort of dream vision\u201d1<\/sub> This article will help my argument in understanding Wells\u2019 application of what he considered \u201cmodern advancements.\u201d<\/p>\n

    3.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Willis, Martin T. “Edison as Time Traveler: H.G. Wells\u2019s Inspiration for His First Scientific Character.”\u00a0Science Fiction Studies<\/em>\u00a026.2 (1999): n. pag.\u00a0MLA<\/em>. Web. 16 Nov. 2014. .<\/p>\n

    In this article, Martin T. Willis discusses the three different roles that Wells\u2019s Time Traveler could fill, focusing deeply on one in particular.\u00a0 The one he focuses on is the one of the traveler filling the role of a \u201cmythic or other model.\u201d\u00a0 He goes on to explain how Thomas Edison was a huge influence at the time, and that Wells\u2019s time traveler mimics him in certain behaviors.\u00a0 This will be helpful in the sense that, despite my dislike of Edison, it will give a background of science that Wells was influenced by to help make claims upon how he influenced what was to come after his time machine.<\/p>\n

    In this tome, Paul J. Nahin analyzes, explains and connects time travel throughout physics and the Science Fiction that has been written.\u00a0 He goes into detail to explain how and why some \u201ctime machines\u201d will not work, and why some might be close to working theoretically.\u00a0 He talks a lot about Einstein and his theories and advancements and about the following research and understanding that has come about since his death. He references many other science fiction works, including Wells\u2019 Time Machine.\u00a0 This large tome will be beneficial in helping me form and back up my argument in relating how Wells\u2019s time machine has influenced both science fiction and science.<\/p>\n

    5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 “S” “Four-Dimensional Space.”\u00a0Naure<\/em>\u00a031 (1885): 481. Print.<\/p>\n

    In this letter to the editor of Nature magazine, an anonymous author, \u201cS.\u201d, brings up the discussion of the fourth dimension as time.\u00a0 This is cited to be the first discussion of such a notion, and there are speculations to \u201cS.\u201d being one of Wells\u2019s peers or Wells himself.\u00a0\u00a0 This is an important letter because Wells uses the concept of the fourth dimension as time heavily in his novel.\u00a0 This will help me relate his views with what came later in regards to Einstein.<\/p>\n

    6. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Philmus, Robert M. “”The Time Machine”: Or, The Fourth Dimension as Prophecy.”\u00a0PMLA<\/em>\u00a084.3 (1969): 530-35.JSTOR<\/em>. Web. 16 Nov. 2014.<\/p>\n

    This article, however focusing a lot on degeneration, has a bit to say about Wells\u2019 Time Traveler and the proposed fourth dimension.\u00a0 He discusses the necessity for the Traveler to go back at the end of the novel and explains the disbelievability of the Traveler\u2019s speculations and visiosn. This article might not be the most helpful of the articles I\u2019ve found, but it might prove to be helpful.<\/p>\n

    7. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sussler, George. “Re-Writing the Time Machine around Mrs. Watchett.”\u00a0Cahiers Victoriens & Edouardiens<\/em>\u00a046 (1997): 191-211. Print.<\/p>\n

    In this article, Sussler picks apart Wells\u2019s The Time Machine in terms of Einsteinian physics with specific focus on the \u201cMrs. Watchett\u201d scene.\u00a0 He explains how Wells\u2019s time machine is flawed since it does not move in both space and time.\u00a0 He discusses many other examples of Wells\u2019s machine not applying to our modern-day understanding of physics as well.\u00a0 This will be helpful in terms of showing an advancement in the thought of time machines since Wells\u2019s day, and hence his impact.<\/p>\n

    8.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 St. Clair, Justin. “Borrowed Time: Thomas Pynchon’s Against the Day and the Victorian Fourth Dimension.”\u00a0Science Fiction Studies<\/em>\u00a038.1 (2011): 46-66.\u00a0JSTOR\/ILL<\/em>. Web. 18 Nov. 2014.<\/p>\n

    In this article, St. Clair goes into detail about another author\u2019s SF novel.\u00a0 In doing this, he explains the influence H.G.Wells, along with two others, had on this author.\u00a0 He also goes into detail to explain that Wells himself was influenced by E. Abbott and Charles Howard Hinton.\u00a0 This will aid me in backing up that Wells has inspired both modern SF and Scientific thought with his novel, The Time Machine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
