| description | Throughout his artist career, the writer Juan Filloy (Córdoba, 1894-2000) was subject of extensive interviews, and along with that, one must include the critical notes in diverse social media. Within the biography and the autobiography, these texts have built an image around the writer who voluntarily went ignored but unfairly forgotten. A close look through this corpus permits one to see that this built image revolves around two main axes: his residence in a province town and the edition of his books privately. Moreover, within this context, one can also see consistency and transformation. According to my hypothesis, the plot of these texts revolves around two essential themes: the first one looks at the image of the cult writer, and the second one, consecutively unearth the hidden writer. Furthermore, a close view to his personal correspondence invites to question this writing and to create another one that could correspond to the rationale that made this one become visible. |

A lo largo de su trayectoria artística, el escritor Juan Filloy (Córdoba, 1894-2000) fue sujeto de extensas entrevistas. A ellas se deben sumar las notas críticas que aparecieron en diversos medios gráficos. Entre la biografía y la autobiografía, estos textos han construido una imagen del escritor voluntariamente escondido e injustamente olvidado. Un recorrido por este corpus permite advertir que esa construcción se asienta sobre dos datos: la residencia en un pueblo de provincia y la edición de sus libros en forma privada. Permite, asimismo, señalar constancias y transformaciones. Según mi hipótesis, estos textos urden primero la imagen del escritor de culto y solo después la del escritor oculto. Una mirada a la correspondencia del escritor invita a cuestionar ese relato y a construir otro que atienda a las opciones que este efectuó para hacerse visible.
