Captain Nemo, the main character in the novel

          In this book after I read, it can made me memories a main character call Captain Nemo. The one who makes a token appearance in the story. Captain Nemo, a character which is the writer can created name is recognizable around the world. Nemo was a brilliant inventor with a tragic air who may be just a bit mad. We will never know as much about him as we would like to know. The name that he chosen for himself, Nemo in Latin means "nobody". That can make a hint of mystery. But this mystery can make him so fascinating. Nemo character could only see the upside of science, indeed, like as not, he could not conceive a deeper, darker downside. Captain Nemo character tall and swarthy in appearance, with a straight nose and wide-set eyes, an attribute which gives him exceptional range of vision. Nemo engaged in war and conflict to bring about his utopia and the scientific-industrial joint-venture is using unnatural methods to bring about their utopia.
          Captain Nemo is a scientific genius who roams the depths of the sea in his submarine, the Nautilus. He believes that science will eventually develop methods and materials that will provide ever increasing yields and monstrous sizes of produce that will eliminate privation, want, and hunger forever and thus make moot the whole point of war. He also is a promoter of science as the panacea of all social ills, most especially human hunger.
          Nemo tries to project a stern, controlled confidence. Nemo’s drive was essentially anti-war, though he uses war machines to achieve this goal. Nemo’s original goal of feeding the mass of humanity was laudable, science and eventually, industry had equally noble goals. Nemo as villain or hero because Nemo’s apparent desire to see the world without strife. Captain Nemo personally develops plants and materials that will serve this purpose and thus presupposes much of the big Pharma of today.  He is driven by a thirst for vengeance, and wracked by remorse over the deaths of his crew members and even by the deaths of enemy sailors. Nemo dies of a mysterious illness just before the eruption and is buried in his ship that is then sunk.
