A key protagonist in Argentina's rise to world-class status in the arts and sciences, Ocampo leveraged her wealth and social status to found Sur (1931-92), the internationally influential journal of literature, culture, and ideas. Ocampo personally invited many intellectual and artistic celebrities to visit Buenos Aires. Most were men. Some, endowed with egos as outsized as their reputations, tripped and fell into sentimental imbroglios with the strong-willed and beautiful Ocampo. In Free Women in the Pampas the ups and downs of her passionate friendships, debates, and misunderstandings with poet Rabindranath Tagore, philosopher José Ortega y Gasset, and the writers Pierre Drieu de la Rochelle, Hermann von Keyserling, and Waldo Frank are witnessed by the fictional Carmen Brey, a Galician-Spanish immigrant whose story is skilfully interwoven with that of Ocampo. Carmen's sympathetic but incisive gaze puts her friend Victoria into perspective against a larger vision of Argentina. Carmen's adventures lead her to social-justice writer MarÃa Rosa Oliver, the wilder side of the 1920s literary avant-garde (and the now-canonical authors Roberto Arlt, Jorge Luis Borges, and Leopoldo Marechal), the Mapuche people of the pampa, and a ten-year-old Evita Ibarguren, later famous as Eva Perón. Against this broad, inclusive backdrop, the novel vividly depicts Victoria Ocampo's struggle with the strictures of class and gender to find her own voice and vocation as a public intellectual."-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a Translation of: Libres del sur : una novela sobre Victoria Ocampo. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 229-238). 505 00 $a Machine generated contents note: $t 1929-1931: Free Women of the South. $g 4. $t 1924: "... the words have not been rightly set" -- $g 2. $t 1928: "I have been an Argentine in imagination" -- $g 3. $t 1928-1929: The Most Fantastic Woman, Dreams of the Plain -- $g 4. $t 1929-1931: Free Women of the South. 600 10 $a Ocampo, Victoria, $d 1890-1979 $v Fiction. 600 17 $a Ocampo, Victoria, $d 1890-1979. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00012201 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 650 0 $a Authors, Argentine $y 20th century $v Fiction. $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women intellectuals $z Argentina $v Fiction. $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Feminists $z Argentina $v Fiction. $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Authors, Argentine. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00821801 650 7 $a Feminists. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00922831 650 7 $a Intellectual life. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00975769 650 7 $a Women intellectuals. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01178059 651 0 $a Argentina $x Intellectual life $y 20th century $v Fiction. 651 7 $a Argentina. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205614 655 7 $a Biographical fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726537 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Biographical fiction. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Online version: $a Lojo de Beuter, MariÌa Rosa. $s Libres del sur.
