Abstract

Susan Sontag (1933-2004) was one of the most important North American public intellectuals of the twentieth century. Writer of novels and essays with dozens of translations, she has lived with expressive intellectuals and artists, including Latin Americans such as Carlos Fuentes, Octavio Paz and Julio Cortázar. In this way he sought to arouse the interest of many readers for the literary innovations produced in Latin America during the Cold War and how they were moved by the importance of thinking about political and social events resulting in an extremely instigating and difficult production to be found at the same time in the United States. This article aims to show how her relationship with some Latin American intellectuals has been established as well as to discuss the unfolding of its controversial political positions in relation with the U.S. foreign policy and the revolutionary experiences in Latin America.
