Güiraldes, Ricardo

   Also found in: Encyclopedia 0.04 sec.

Güiraldes, Ricardo (1886–1927)

Argentine novelist and poet. Contact with French avant-garde writing in Paris in 1910 influenced the controversially innovative poetry and prose of his collection El cencerro de cristal/The Crystal Bell 1915. Deep feeling for his native land characterizes his stories Cuentos de muerte y de sangre/Tales of Death and Blood 1915 and his novel Don Segundo Sombra 1926, a poetic idealization of Argentine gaucho (nomadic cattleman) life, his best-known work.
