Two Wan Li under the Sea was written in 187.
The brutal suppression of the Polish people's uprising against the Tsar was a trigger for the creation of Two Wan Li under the Sea. In his novels, he created a tall image of Captain Nemo, who opposed the tsar, and endowed him with a strong sense of social responsibility and humanitarian spirit to express his criticism of reality. At the beginning of writing the novel, there was an argument between the author and the publisher about the characteristics of the protagonist Nemo, the captain of the Nautilus.
Hersel thinks that Nemo should be described as a deadly enemy of trafficking, providing a clear and ideal defense for his ruthless attack on some ships at sea. But Verne hoped that Nemo was a Polish, and he never forgave his hatred to the Russian czar. However, the publisher is worried that he will cause diplomatic differences and the book will be banned in the lucrative Russian market. Finally, the author and publisher gradually compromised with each other. They thought that Nemo's real motivation should be ambiguous to be attractive.
