This event, which has had a prominent place in the Uruguayan police chronicle and in the literary history, was narrated by biographies and fictions for more than a century. This story has been told with some variants that have been reiterated a knot of conflicts around some protagonists: Delmira, her mother, her boyfriend-husband-lover-murderer, and Manuel Ugarte as the impossible lover. However, the reading of the manuscripts indicates the relevance of the figure of his father: Santiago Agustini, almost an unmentioned shadow in the stories about this "tragedy".

Delmira Agustini (1886-1914) había publicado tres libros de poesía y ganado el reconocimiento de la crítica y el público cuando fue asesinada,el 6 de julio de 1914, por quien había sido su esposo. Este acontecimiento que ha tenido un lugar destacado en la crónica policial y en la historia literaria uruguaya, fue narrado por biografías y ficciones durante más de un siglo. Esta historiaha sido contada con algunas variantes que han reiterado un nudo de conflictos en torno a algunos protagonistas: Delmira, su madre, su novio-marido-amante-asesino, y ManueUgarte como el enamorado imposible. Sin embargo, la lectura de los manuscritos señala la relevancia de la figura de su padre: Santiago Agustini, casi una sombra en los relatos de la “tragedia”.Este trabajo intenta plantear la importancia de esta relación para comprender la producción poética de Delmira y abrir, desde esa perspectiva, la trama de relaciones emocionales e intelectuales que alimentaron vida y poesía.
