  • Leopoldo Lugones Argüello (13 June 1874 - 18 February 1938) was an Argentine writer and journalist. Born in Villa de María del Río Seco, the traditional city of the province of Córdoba, in Argentina's Catholic heartland, Lugones belonged to a family of landed gentry. He first worked for La Montaña, a newspaper, and was in favour with the aristocratic Manuel Quintana, a candidate to become a president of Argentina. This brought him first to Buenos Aires, where his literary talent developed quickly. Lugones was the leading Argentine exponent of the Latin American literary current known as Modernismo. This was a form of Parnassianism influenced by Symbolism. He was also the author of the incredibly dense and rich novel La Guerra Gaucha (1905). He was an impassioned journalist, polemicist and public speaker who at first was a Socialist, later a conservative/traditionalist and finally a supporter of Fascism and as such an inspiration for a group of rightist intellectuals such as Juan Carulla and Rodolfo Irazusta. Leopoldo Lugones went to Europe in 1906, 1911, 1913 and in 1930, in which latter year he supported the coup d'état against the aging Radical party president, Hipólito Yrigoyen. In early 1938, the despairing and disillusioned Lugones committed suicide by taking a mixture of whisky and cyanide while staying at the river resort of El Tigre.

  • Leopoldo Lugones fou un escriptor argentí. Contista i poeta, va ser amb Rubén Darío (el qual va tenir paraules molt elogioses d'aquest escritor, des de la publicación del seu primer llivre, Las montañas de oro) un dels més destacats escritors modernistes de la literatura espanyola, figura fonamental de la literatura fantàstica,i considerat per Borges com l'home el qual es podria considerar una síntesi de la literatura de l'Argentina (de fet, el 13 de juny és el Día del Escritor a l'Argentina). A més d'aquesta activitat literària, l'escriptor va tindre una important militància política a les files del nacionalisme argentí, fins i tot del feixisme (tot i que abans, a la seva joventut, va ser un apassionat socialista). També va treballar com periodista, i va escriure nombrosos assaigos. De vida marcada per la tragèdia, es va suïcidar com també ho va fer el seu fill, Polo Lugones, mentre que la seva filla, Pirí Lugones va ser segrestada, torturada i desapareguda per la dictadura anomenada Proceso de Reorganización Nacional, durant el govern de facto de Jorge Rafael Videla.
