On the 50th anniversary of Oswald de Andrade's death, his daughter Marília de Andrade, a retired professor at Unicamp, says that she keeps in her memory the image of a pacified man always in love with the last muse, Maria Antonieta d'Alkmin, which goes against the reputation of a stubborn rebel. If Oswald died disillusioned with the lack of recognition, his work is being debated more than ever.
