About The Author

Edwin A. Abbott

Edwin Abbott Abbott (1838-1926) was a Victorian English schoolmaster, theologian, and author. He is best known for his mathematical, satirical, and religious allegory Flatland, first published anonymously in 1884 under the pseudonym “A Square.” Abbott was an immensely prolific writer, but Flatland, a geometrical romance positing a two-dimensional world, remains his most enduring work.
