Planet of the Apes [SEP] "La Planète des singes"
The series began with French author Pierre Boulle's 1963 novel "La Planète des singes". Boulle wrote the novel in six months after the "humanlike expressions" of gorillas at the zoo inspired him to contemplate the relationship between man and ape. "La Planète des singes" was heavily influenced by 18th- and 19th-century fantastical travel narratives, especially Jonathan Swift's satirical "Gulliver's Travels". It is one of several of Boulle's works to use science fiction tropes and plot devices to comment on the failings of human nature and mankind's overreliance on technology, though Boulle rejected the science fiction label, instead terming his genre "social fantasy".
