Carlos Gagini
Carlos Gagini was a prominent Costa Rican intellectual born on March 15, 1865, in San José. He distinguished himself as an educator, philologist, novelist, and short story writer, deeply passionate about the Spanish language and the revaluation of vernacular expressions. Gagini's notable works include the 1918 publication of the 'Diccionario de costarriqueñismos,' which highlighted Costa Rican dialects with respect. He was also an advocate for Esperanto, a constructed international language, promoting it as a means for global communication. Gagini's anti-imperialist sentiments were evident in his literary works, particularly in his novel 'La caída del águila,' where diverse characters unite against foreign imperialism. He passed away on March 31, 1925, and March is being recognized for the 160th anniversary of his birth and the centenary of his death.
