Autor

Evgenii Ivanovich Zamiatin, also known as Yevgeny Ivanovich Zamyatin was a Russian author known for his contributions to science fiction, philosophy, literary criticism, and political satire. Born on February 1, 1884, in Lebedyan, Russia, he was the son of Ivan Zamyatin, a Russian Orthodox priest, and Maria Zamyatina. Zamyatin's early life was influenced by his father's religious background, but he lost his faith in Christianity during his youth. He later became a Bolshevik and a prominent voice in the political and literary circles of his time. Zamyatin's works often criticized the political systems of his era, blending satire with philosophical and futuristic ideas. He is best known for his dystopian novel, "We," which critiques totalitarianism and explores themes of individuality and freedom. Zamyatin spent his later years in Paris, where he passed away on March 10, 1937, at the age of 53. His work, though controversial and banned in Soviet Russia, has had a lasting impact on literature and continues to be studied for its bold critique of society and the individual.
