	Guardian Unlimited \| Obituaries \| Obituary: Augusto Roa Bastos
		In his short stories and novels, Roa Bastos returns time and again to the extraordinary, often brutal events that have marked this small, landlocked country in the heart of South America, a country Roa himself described as "an island surrounded on all sides by land".
		Roa lived this dual identity from early childhood, which he spent in the countryside where his father managed a sugar mill.
		Roa volunteered as a hospital assistant, and the suffering and stupidity of war, exacerbated by what seemed to him the wrong kind of nationalism, became another element that later surfaced in his literature.

	Paraguay 8027
		Sabino Augusto Montanaro, in his declarations to the press which appeared in the newspaper Hoy of February 22, 1983, a clipping of which was sent to the IACHR attached to a note from the Minister of Foreign Affairs signed by the Deputy Secretary of that portfolio, Ambassador Francisco Barreiro Maffiodo.
		Augusto Roa Bastos from the country was decreed administratively without any type of legal proceedings and without allowing recourse to any appeal, as a means of eliminating a political dissident whom the government considers a threat to its internal security.
		Augusto Roa Bastos may return to his home country, Paraguay, and enjoy all the rights and guarantees that the Paraguayan constitution and its laws and international instruments relating to human rights confer to him.

		Roa Bastos, the 1989 winner of the prestigious Cervantes Prize for Literature in Spanish, suffered complications from surgery following a fall last week in his Asuncion home, authorities said.
		A former journalist, poet, and writer of short stories, Roa Bastos is best known for his book "I, The Supreme," a novelized version of the career of Gaspar Rodriguez de Francia, who ruled Paraguay with an iron fist from 1814 until 1840.
		Hailed as Paraguay's most important contemporary writer, Roa Bastos lived in exile for 42 years, voluntarily leaving his homeland during political upheaval before returning for good in the mid-1990s.

	Augusto Roa Bastos, Helen Lane, Augusto Roa Bastos: I, the Supreme (Latin American Literature Series) - Bøger (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Latin American writers, in turn, have responded with fictional portraits of such figures, and no novel of this genre is as universally esteemed as Augusto Roa Bastos's I THE SUPREME, a book that draws on and reimagines the career of the man who was "elected" Supreme Dictator for Life in Paraguay in 1814.
		Roa Bastos has played on the borderline between history and fiction, but most readers will not know this, and take for fiction what are very important and interesting historical facts, that would deserve a different approach and attention.
		Writing for a country that has possessed only brief and shadowy vestiges of liberty, Roa Bastos deals with its pain in a way that should be required reading for all who care about democracy.

		His experiences abroad, together with what he had already experienced of Paraguay's backwardness and deep-rooted injustices, led Roa to join those who tried to bring about a modernising coup in 1947.
		In 1976, a military junta seized power in Argentina, and Roa's novel appeared on a list of banned subversive books.
		Roa Bastos is survived by his third wife, Iris Giménez, and three children.

		"Augusto Roa Bastos is himself a supreme find, maybe the most complex and brilliant Latin American novelist of all.
		What a glory of echoing voices this Paraguayan portmanteau is, more Joycean than Cortazar's Hopscotch, every bit as volcanic and visionary as Lezama Lima's Paradiso or Osman Lins's Avalovara.
		"A text of a verbal density that recalls the later James Joyce, a web of intertextual reference never seen in modern Spanish outside of Borges, Roa Bastos' novel has challenged and fascinated thousands of readers around the world.

	Film Culture in Paraguay: Interview with Hugo Gamarra Etcheverry
		NK: I understand that when the Paraguayan Film Festival started in 1990 the first thing you did was arrange a homage to your great writer Augusto Roa Bastos who had also been a screenwriter in his years of exile in Buenos Aires.
		HG: Yes, he had written more than 20 screenplays, and many of those films had been celebrated and won international prizes – Shunko (1960, directed by Lautaro Murúa, with a screenplay by Roa Bastos) was chosen by UNESCO as the most important Argentinean film of the 100 years of Cinema.
		In 1990, with Stroessner gone, Roa Bastos returned from his exile to again live in Paraguay and we showed a selection of the films he had written.
