Sábato, Ernesto

   Also found in: Encyclopedia 0.04 sec.

Sábato, Ernesto (1911- )

Argentine novelist and social critic. Trained as a physicist, he was removed from his university post 1945 for opposition to the Perón government. He depicted an existential antihero in his successful novel El túnel/The Outsider (1948). Both in essays such as ‘Hombres y engranajes/Men and Gears’ (1951) and novels such as Abaddón el exterminador/Abaddón the Exterminator (1974) he has explored the excesses of scientific rationalism in an overmechanized modern society.
