RusticPhileas Fogg, a true "gentleman", a member of the Reform Club, risks his entire fortune on a bet. He promises to go around the world in eighty days, based on a calculation made by the "Morning Chronicle" newspaper. Through this fascinating journey around the globe, Jules Verne presents us with the true central theme of the work, which is not the mere geographical description, but the mastery of time, achieved by man thanks to technological development and the means of communication. .
