Por qu un lbum Cort zar? Porque no pod amos esperar m s. Con motivo del centenario de su nacimiento, la Internacional Cronopia reclamaba ya con demasiada insistencia una nueva aproximaci n al escritor y al hombre. Por qu no intentar un almanaque, un hermoso libro, suelto y despeinado, lleno de interpolaciones y saltos y grandes aletazos y zambullidas , como propon a Julio Cort zar en La vuelta al d a en ochenta mundos? La soluci n era una idea simple que iba a darnos much simo trabajo: un diccionario biogr fico ilustrado, una fotobiograf a autocomentada con retratos de todas las pocas, fotograf as de las primeras ediciones de todos sus libros, algunas de sus publicaciones en peri dicos y revistas; una antolog a de textos acompa ada de objetos y cuadros que fueron suyos, reproducciones de manuscritos y mecanuscritos originales, papelitos sueltos todav a in ditos y, de vez en cuando, el recuerdo en primera persona de quienes fueron sus amigos. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION To commemorate Julio Cortazar's hundredth anniversary, the International Cronopia began its demands for a new look at the man and the author. In response to these demands, we came up with a simple idea that would turn out to be a pretty challenging project: an illustrated biographical dictionary, or photo-biography, self-documented with portraits from every period of Cortazar's life: photos of every one of his first editions; some of his publications in newspapers and magazines; an anthology of texts accompanied by his personal objects and paintings; reproductions of original handwritten and typed manuscripts; unedited scribblings; and, scattered throughout, the reminiscences of those who were his closest friends.

About the Author
Nacido en Bruselas en 1914, durante una estancia temporal de sus padres en esa ciudad, Julio Cortázar es uno de los escritores argentinos más importantes de todos los tiempos. Realizó estudios de Letras y de Magisterio y trabajó como docente en varias ciudades del interior de Argentina. En 1951 fijó su residencia definitiva en París, desde donde desarrolló una obra literaria única dentro de la lengua castellana. Algunos de sus cuentos se encuentran entre los más perfectos del género. Su novela Rayuela conmocionó el panorama cultural de su tiempo y marcó un hito insoslayable dentro de la narrativa contemporánea. Cortázar murió en París en 1984.
