Abstract
Although science fiction is to be found in Latin American literature, it has always been considered a minor genre on the continent. This may be why some science fiction writers publish under a pseudonym while others have only dabbled in this genre. The paper analyzes Artificial Man (1910) by the Uruguayan Horacio Quiroga and Close to Life (2010) by the Peruvian Santiago Roncagliolo in order to demonstrate how the use of technology in human beings can be depicted. The article discusses in particular the means by which Roncagliolo highlights the desire for automation that leads a company to dehumanize humans in order to humanize machines.
