Women of Argentina and Uruguay have made major contributions to their nations, as poets, critics, movie stars, film-makers, and narrators. After some attention to early writers, we will focus on women since World War II: the Peronist era (Eva Peron, Ocampo, diGiorgio); demon-haunted lesbian Alejandra Pizarnik; writers during the dictatorships (Gorodischer, Valenzuela, Peri Rossi, Sarlo); old and young film-makers (Bemberg, Martel); transnational authors (Shua, Negroni); and recent authors in Cristina Kirchner's Argentina.
