, Ursula K. Le Guin died in Portland, Oregon. Since then, much has been written memorializing her genre-defying body of work,, and her broad interest in human society and government.

Kroeber was especially drawn to Boas’ newly developed notion of culture and the broader theory of “cultural relativism.
He told the hypothetical story of a baby taken from France and brought to China. She would, he argued, grow up speaking perfect Chinese and would know no French. His point—as obvious as it might seem today—was that there was no hereditary quality to “Frenchness” that would carry over, genetically, to a child born of French parents.
