Historical Figures Reimagined
The Difference Engine introduces us to a cast of characters both familiar and extraordinary. Charles Babbage, the renowned mathematician, is here. His analytical mind and unwavering pursuit of mechanical precision drive the invention of the titular Difference Engine, a calculating machine that will forever alter the course of history. Ada Lovelace, the visionary daughter of Lord Byron, plays a pivotal role in programming the Difference Engine, her brilliance illuminating the potential of this groundbreaking technology.
Alongside these historical luminaries, we encounter a host of captivating fictional characters.
