Everything in Flatland is clear-cut and orderly, until the day an average citizen—a Square—dreams of a land of three dimensions. If three dimensions are possible,...

If my poor Flatland friend retained the vigour of mind which he enjoyed when he began to compose these Memoirs, I should not now need to represent him in this preface, in which he desires, firstly, to return his thanks to his readers and critics in Spaceland, whose appreciation has, with unexpected celerity, required a second edition of his work; secondly, to apologize for certain errors and misprints (for which, however, he is not entirely responsible); and, thirdly, to explain one or two...

In those days Israel was grievously afflicted, and tribulation befell the righteous. Satan put it into the heart of the rulers of the land to move the people to the worship of false gods, and the Lord God had not yet raised up a Redeemer for Israel...

Flatland est une allégorie, écrite en 1884, où l'auteur, Edwin Abbott Abbott, donne vie aux dimensions géométriques, le point, la ligne et les figures planes, avant d'en arriver à faire découvrir l'univers des volumes par un carré. Cette allégorie n'est pas sans rappeler la sortie de la caverne, voire le cheminement de Don Quichotte, l'hidalgo de Cervantes.
