utopias

contrary to utopias beautification of the future, the literary tradition of dystopia exaggerates the dark sides of reality to an extreme so as to satirize reality.

与美化未来的乌托邦文学相反，反面乌托邦文学所描述的未来是把现实社会的黑暗面夸大到最坏程度，以讽刺社会现实。

I know there are different theories of gradual evolution towards the so-called perfection of political utopias and religious heavens, but this leaves me where I actually am.

我知道有很多种逐渐进化的理论，声称能通向所谓完美的政治乌托邦和宗教天堂，但是这把我带到了我现在实际的这个样子。

But then Utopias and Dystopias indissolubly linked, both have a long and honourable cultural history in the English-speaking world.

可是乌托邦和反乌托邦也难分难解地联系在一起，它们都在英语世界有着漫长而光辉的历史。
