Jean-Marie Villiers de l’Isle-Adam:
Science Fiction Technology and Ideas
Jean-Marie-Mathias-Philippe-Auguste, comte de Villiers de l'Isle-Adam (b. 1838 – d. 1889) was a French symbolist writer. Villiers' works, in the Romantic style, are often fantastic in plot and filled with mystery and horror. The Future Eve greatly helped to popularize the term "android". Villiers believed the imagination has within it much more beauty than reality itself, existing at a level in which nothing real could compare
