Silvina Ocampo
From a young age, she studied drawing and painting; one of her teachers was Giorgio De Chirico. She published her first book, Forgotten Journey, in 1937. In 1940, she married Adolfo Bioy Casares and that same year published, in collaboration with him and Jorge Luis Borges, an emblematic Anthology of Fantastic Literature. Several of her stories and poems appeared in the magazine Sur, which was directed by her sister Victoria. Among her more than twenty published works are Enumeration of the Homeland (poems), Those Who Love, Hate (detective novel, in collaboration with Bioy), Irene's Autobiography (stories), Poems of Desperate Love (poetry), The Traitors (theater, in collaboration with J. R. Wilcock) and Cornelia in Front of the Mirror (stories)
In 1999, Emecé gathered for the first time her Complete Stories in two volumes and in 2000 did the same with her Complete Poetry, also in two volumes. The publisher also released Unpublished and Scattered Poetry (2000) and Essential Anthology (2001)
She received the Municipal Poetry Prize and the National Poetry Prize. Her growing prestige, the relevance of her published work, and the emergence of valuable unpublished texts contribute to affirming her as an indispensable author of the Argentine canon.
