Octavio Paz

If there is one Latin-American writer who embodies the fertility of intellectual and aesthetic exchanges between his country, Europe and other parts of the world, it is Mexico’s Octavio Paz (1914-1998), who bore witness to the 20th century’s turmoil as an engaged spectator, poet, critic, magazine founder and awakener of ideas.
