Episode 13: Escape to the Future

  • Summary

  • To wrap things up we return to conversations with several academics we heard from earlier. We ask them why is it that our subjects are so much less known than their Bloomsbury Set contemporaries. We focus on the end of the Machine Age and its anticipation of the Space Age to come, and ask how our subjects fared in the run up to World War 2 when faced with a choice of mostly totalitarian futures. In particular, we return to the artist and writer Wyndham-Lewis and his short-lived sympathy… for Hitler. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
