    Improving on Nature: Eugenics in Utopian Fiction

(Signature)............................................................................................................. 2 3 Abstract There has long been a connection between the concept of utopia as a perfect society and the desire for perfect humans to live in this society. A form of selective breeding takes place in many fictional utopias from Plato’s Republic onwards, but it is only with the naming and promotion of eugenics by Francis Galton in the late nineteenth century that eugenics becomes a consistent and important component of utopian fiction. In my introduction I argue that behind the desire for eugenic fitness within utopias resides a sense that human nature needs improving. Darwin’s Origin of Species (1859) prompted fears of degeneration, and eugenics was seen as a means of restoring purpose and control. Chapter Two examines the impact of Darwin’s ideas on the late nineteenth-century utopia through contrasting the evolutionary fears of Samuel Butler’s Erewhon (1872) with Edward Bellamy’s more positive view of the potential of evolution in Looking Backward (1888).

    Introduction 1 Introduction Bernard Lightman The year 2009 marked the 150th anniversary of the publication of Charles Darwin’s Origin of Species (1859) and the 200th anniversary of Darwin’s birth. The coinciding, twin anniversaries generated over 300 celebratory events, held across the globe.1 In that same year scores of publications were produced on all things Darwin.2 Three years after the Darwin Year in 2009 another anniversary in the history of evolution took place. 2012 marked the 150th anniversary of the publication of Herbert Spencer’s First Principles (1862), the first volume of his ambitious System of Synthetic Philosophy (1862–1896). In Spencer’s mind the theory of evolution was the key to his entire system. In ten dense volumes on biology, sociology, ethics, psychology and religion, Spencer presented a new intellectual synthesis by interpreting all phenomena according to the law of evolution. But in contrast to the extensive Darwin celebrations, 2012 passed with no fanfare. No major events were held to draw attention to Spencer’s role in the dissemination of evolutionary theory. Instead of an avalanche of publi- cations in one year, as in Darwin’s case, only a handful of books on Spencer have appeared over the last decade, including Jones and Peel’s edited collec- tion Herbert Spencer: The Intellectual Legacy, Francis’s Herbert Spencer and the Invention of Modern Life, and Taylor’s The Philosophy of Herbert Spencer.3 Both the non-event of the 2012 anniversary and the paucity of recent scholarship speak volumes about Spencer’s reputation in the early twenty-first century.

Roberts Office Hours: Mon. 3-5, Tues. 9-10, Office: 226 Bay State Road, Room 406 and by appointment 617-353-2557 (O); 781-209-0982 (H) [email protected] Course Description: Few concepts have proved more difficult to define than religion, but most students of the subject would agree that religious traditions commonly include rituals and other practices, aesthetic and emotional experiences, and a body of ideas typically expressed as beliefs. This course focuses on those beliefs during the course of American history from the first English colonial settlement to the present and on their interaction with the broader currents of American culture. Theology is the term often used to describe the systematic expression of religious doctrine. It is clearly possible, however, to discuss religious beliefs outside the context of formal theology, and it is at least arguable that some of the most influential beliefs in American history have received their most vivid and forceful expressions beyond the purview of theological discourse. Accordingly, while much of our attention in this course will focus on the works of theologians and clergy--the religious “professionals”--we shall also deal with religious strategies that a widely disparate group of other thinkers (e.g., scientists, artists, and other influential lay people) have deployed in attempting to account for the nature of the cosmos, the structure of the social order, and the dynamics of human experience. Most of the people whom we’ll be studying were committed proponents of Christianity or Judaism, but the course lectures and readings will also occasionally move outside of those traditions to include others.

    The Colonial Book and the Writing of American History, 1790-1855

    HISTORY’S IMPRINT: THE COLONIAL BOOK AND THE WRITING OF AMERICAN HISTORY, 1790-1855 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Lindsay E.M. DiCuirci, M.A. Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Elizabeth Hewitt, Adviser Jared Gardner Susan Williams Copyright by Lindsay Erin Marks DiCuirci 2010 ABSTRACT “History’s Imprint: The Colonial Book and the Writing of American History, 1790-1855” investigates the role that reprinted colonial texts played in the development of historical consciousness in nineteenth-century America. In the early decades of the nineteenth century, antiquarians and historians began to make a concerted effort to amass and preserve an American archive of manuscript and print material, in addition to other artifacts and “curiosities” from the colonial period. Publishers and editors also began to prepare new editions of colonial texts for publication, introducing nineteenth-century readers to these historical artifacts for the first time. My dissertation considers the role of antiquarian collecting and historical publishing—the reprinting of colonial texts—in the production of popular historical narratives. I study the competing narratives of America’s colonial origins that emerged between 1790 and 1855 as a result of this new commitment to historicism and antiquarianism. I argue that the acts of selecting, editing, and reprinting were ideologically charged as these colonial texts were introduced to new audiences. Instead of functioning as pure reproductions of colonial books, these texts were used to advocate specific religious, political, and cultural positions in the nineteenth century.
