Ignacio B. Anzoátegui
Ignacio B. Anzoátegui was an Argentine writer known for his extreme nationalist, ultracatholic, and antisemitic views, which are considered intolerable by today's standards. He gained notoriety for his vehement critiques of figures like Domingo Faustino Sarmiento, famously claiming that Sarmiento introduced 'three plagues' to Argentina: normal schoolteachers, eucalyptus trees, and sparrows. Anzoátegui's writings reflect a reactionary stance against modern science, as he preferred a biblical lineage over Darwinian evolution, showcasing his disdain for scientific discourse of his time. His provocative style and controversial opinions contribute to his legacy as a polarizing figure in Argentine literature.
