Utopia is usually a euphemism for dystopia.

>>8150359
No, it is not. At all. A utopia is the exact opposite of a dystopia.

>>8132935
i know it says incomplete … but that utopia side isn't even trying. better off with google

>>8150370
I'm talking when it comes to fiction, you dumbshit.

>>8150385
Utopia is a literary concept. It only exists in fiction. Just because it got unpopular in the nineteenhundreds when dystopia became more popular doesn't mean that the terms are synonymous.

No one really writes utopic literature anymore these days. Doesn't mean you can misuse the name.

Anyone got a chart for the Beats?

>>8150408
Maybe I'm not phrasing it correctly, which is my fault.

In the narrative itself (not as a literary device), utopian societies are virtually dystopian in disguise. Fahrenheit 451, 1984, even Infinite Jest, and the films Equilibrium and Metropolis are set in futures where society has "cleansed" itself of some itself of some evil (determined by whom, usually a new political order whose intentions are probably good in nature). In these cases, the societies appear superficially ideal, but it is (whether or not it is aware) is internally empty, lonely.

There's always some "resistance" or working class that rises against the powers that be, or there's the one guy who notices what's really wrong and tries to change it. Think how these kinds of tropes are also entities existing outside of fiction, which not only says we might be headed one of these suggests but also that our own present can be seen as dystopian; tl;dr whether it's dystopia or utopia is subjective.

I'm just saying, man. Think about it.

>>8150536
>utopian societies are virtually dystopian in disguise.
>There's always some "resistance" or working class that rises against the powers that be

The reason there is a resistance is that the utopiae in fiction are lacking in some way, causing unhappiness and friction for some. If a society is lacking in any way, no matter how miniscule, it's not an ideal society, thus not a "true" utopia.

Those lacking "utopian" societies can indeed be seen (by some) as dystopian in disguise, but they're not the real thing.

>>8150536
do you even Tommaso Campanella?

>>8132582
Yes.

The idea is that no matter where you look and no matter how much you know about literature you're likely to be baited into disagreeing with the image

Surface level casual readers will scroll around without noticing much amiss until they get to shit tier and then complain about tolkein being there for instance, it's the same with all other tiers

>hypersphere

based

>>8150536
I get what you are saying, but your phrasing is pretty bad. Yeah, utopian and dystopian literature is always a matter of the angle you are looking at it from, but they are still very much distinct. The thing is, utopian literature was written in a time when individuality and stuff like that wasn't that much of an elaborated concept, and people really just tried to write about what they thought would be the perfect society. The individual within utopian novels was mostly an outsider who was introduced into the utopian world so that it could be explained to him (and thus the reader), while the utopian society itself didn't really care about individuals, it cared about how well society as a whole worked. This might seem scary to us today, just as it seemed scary to the romantics around 1800, which is about the time when utopian literature fell out of style and were replaced by the style of, for example, the bildungsroman, which is about the individual itself growing and getting educated. This is the time heavily shaped by events like the French Revolution and the Enlightenment, when concepts like the individual were first really explored.

Then during the industrialisation people seemed to have that outlook of a bright future ahead with all the machines making life better, until the two world wars and the atom bomb crushed people's trust in technology and progress, which then turned into the dystopia being the much more prefered form instead of the utopia. Here we combine the theoretical utopia with the now educated and self-aware individual that rebels against this society.

>>8150675
He was a terrible writer, by the way, but an interesting read if you care about the idea of an utopia.

I'd say, if we want a Utopia start, it should start with Plato's narration of Atlantis (it was in the Politeia, right?), then Morus' Utopia, then Campanella's Sun State, the Bacon's New Atlantis.

>>8136678
