Četrdeset tisuća milja ispod mora

Četrdeset tisuća milja ispod mora

Jules Verne

The novel Forty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea (also known as Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, depending on the translation), published in 1870, is one of Jules Verne's most famous works and a classic of science fiction.

The story follows Professor Aronnax, his servant Conseil, and harpooner Ned Land, who, after chasing a mysterious sea monster, find themselves trapped aboard the submarine Nautilus, led by the mysterious Captain Nemo.

The journey under the sea reveals the wondrous world of the ocean – from coral forests, shipwrecks, and polar regions, to lost civilizations like Atlantis. Captain Nemo, a charismatic and morally complex character, chooses a life under the sea to escape the injustices of human civilization. Despite his scholarship and noble motives, his personality is also marked by darker aspects, such as revenge and isolation.

Verne uses the novel to combine scientific fact with adventure, anticipating the development of submarines and deep-sea exploration. The work also explores themes of freedom, the limits of knowledge, the nature of humanity, and the relationship to technology.

Through a fascinating story and rich language, Verne takes the reader to the heart of the ocean, offering an adventure full of tension, philosophical questions, and visionary ideas.
