EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enigmatic presence of a robot character from Karel Capek's groundbreaking science fiction play, R.U.R. (Rossum's Universal Robots), first performed in Prague in 1921. Capek, a visionary Czech writer, is credited with coining the term "robot" from the Czech word for labor, but he famously attributed its invention to his brother Josef in homage to his brother's earlier work. R.U.R. is considered a seminal work in the science fiction genre and a landmark in the history of robotics. The play tells the chilling story of a factory that produces synthetic workers, which eventually turns against their human creators. This image of a robot from the production of the 1929 revival of the play in Prague offers a glimpse into the otherworldly and intriguing world Capek created. The play's premise, which explores the relationship between humans and their creations, has resonated with audiences for nearly a century. Capek's prescient vision of artificial intelligence and automation has influenced numerous works of science fiction and continues to shape our cultural understanding of technology and its potential impact on society. This photograph serves as a reminder of Capek's enduring legacy and the profound influence of his work on the fields of science, literature, and popular culture.
