Because advances made by science and technology far outstripped
improvements in human nature, Utopian dreams of perfect societies in the
twentieth century quickly metamorphosed into dystopian nightmares,
which undermined individual identity and threatened the integrity of the
family. Armed with technological and scientific tools, totalizing social
systems found in literature abolish the distinction between public and private
life and thus penetrate and corrupt the very core of all Utopian blueprints
and visions: the education of future generations. At the heart of the family,
mothers as parents transmit their diverse cultural traditions while socializing
their children and thus compete with ideologically driven systems that usurp
their role as educators. Mothers and Masters in Contemporary Utopian and
Dystopian Literature focuses, therefore, on the thematic importance of this
and other maternal roles for generic metamorphosis. The shift to dystopia
invariably is signaled by the inversion of traditional maternal roles. The
longevity of the utopian-dystopian literary tradition and persistence of the
maternal model of human relationships serve as points of reference in this
postmodern age of relative cultural values. Meta-utopian exploration of this
thematic tension between
utopia
and dystopia reminds us that "no place"
may not be home, but we need to keep going there.
