"Dans l'abîme" by H. G. Wells is a novella written during the late 19th century. It explores the themes of deep-sea exploration, the unknown realms of the ocean, and human ambition through the character of Elstead, who embarks on a perilous journey into the ocean's depths. The opening portion of the story introduces readers to the preparations for a potentially dangerous expedition involving a spherical underwater craft designed for deep-sea exploration. The narrative begins with the lieutenant and Steevens discussing the mechanics of the craft and the challenges posed by the immense pressure underwater. As Elstead, the man who will pilot the craft, prepares for his descent into the ocean, tension and excitement build, setting the stage for an exploration that promises both adventure and peril. After being launched into the water, the narrative hints at the vast unknowns waiting below the surface, highlighting both the awe and fear associated with delving into the depths of the ocean.
