Analysis |
| |
Rossum's Universal Robots -- The play is credited with introducing the concept of "robots" to the cultural lexicon. However, Karel's concept of "robot" in the play is closer to that of organic constructs, what is typically referred to nowadays as "androids", more so than the mechanical constructions the term robot has come to mean. In terms of the play's original meaning, robots strongly resemble the Dolls. There are multiple applicable layers, however -- Čapek's Robots are biological machines -- they are still assembled, as opposed to grown or born -- in this they do resemble the modern concept of robots. The Dolls, in a sense, also do possess this quality -- their personalities, memories, and the like are not formed or developed over time, but assembled from components, much like a machine would be, and then "installed" into the Doll. Thus, in many ways, the Dolls have much in common with Čapek's Robots.
