De onderaardsche reis van Klaas Klim by Ludvig Holberg

"De onderaardsche reis van Klaas Klim" by Ludvig Holberg is a satirical science-fiction novel published in 1741. When a curious philosophy student investigates a mysterious cave in Bergen, he falls into an extraordinary underground world orbiting an inner sun. There he encounters sentient trees, walking plants, and a utopian society that challenges his assumptions about morality, gender equality, religion, and government. His journey through this strange realm becomes a biting satire of European culture and philosophy. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
