A Fictional Sketch of Future Customs, edited and translated by UC San Diego Latin American Studies and Iberian Languages and Literatures Librarian, Sarah Buck Kachaluba, and DePauw University Associate Professor of Spanish, Aaron Dziubinskyj.
Eugenia, a little-known gem of utopian/dystopian fiction published in Spanish in the early 20th century takes place in a eugenically engineered society of the future. Long before dystopian classics by Aldous Huxley and George Orwell emerged, Eugenia tackled some of the most important challenges of modern society, such as population growth, reproductive behavior and technologies, experimentation with gender roles, and changes in family dynamics. Nearly a century later–in February 2016–an English translation of Eugenia has been published, translated by Sarah Buck Kachaluba, the UC San Diego Library’s Latin American and Iberian Studies Librarian.
Event Date: Thursday May 19th, 2016 4:00-5:30pm
Location: Geisel Library, Seuss Room
Recorded and Edited by Dan LaSusa
