This study is a literary and cultural history of the utopian novel, as well as a contribution to the Marxist critique of utopian thought. Exploring the relationship between history and utopia, Beaumont (literature, University of Oxford) demonstrates that the utopian future envisioned during the period was the product of a capitalist model of history. In five chapters the book examines three types of utopia or anti-utopia: state socialism, feminism, and anti-communism, placing them in historical perspective, before reinterpreting Morris's Marxist utopia, News from Nowhere.
