Main Ideas

  • Critique of industrialization and mechanization of society, which suppresses human individuality and spirituality.
  • Depiction of the destructive consequences of capitalism, where people become mere cogs in a vast production machine.
  • The problem of human alienation from nature and their roots in the context of industrial progress.
  • The tragedy of human relationships and personal destinies in the soulless and harsh world of factories and plants.
  • The contrast between spiritual values and material well-being, where the latter leads to moral degradation.
