  Sergio Eduardo Stuparich Clementi (born December 14, 1943) was a Chilean author and philosopher descending from Italian immigrants from the Adriatic island of Lussin, Croatia.
  
  ## Biography and career
  
  Stuparich was born and raised in the capital Santiago. An alumni at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile and the University of Chile, he worked as a philosophy teacher at Santiago University of Technology (now Usach) before the 1973 military coup. At the same time, he was active in the Socialist Party and was therefore forced to put himself in safety at Italy's embassy when the military took over. In the meantime, he wrote the novel Chile: Comprometerse con una clase, which was published later in exile.
  
  After 1973, Stuparich was exiled in Italy, where he continued to teach and obtained a PhD qualification, Dottore in Filosofia from the University of Turin.In this period the writer had an extra marital relationship with an Italian, AMATO Romana, from whom he had a daughter later belatedly recognized in 2008, AMATO Stuparich Clementi Eleonora and with whom the author struggles to maintain relationships. He eventually came to live in Sweden.
  
  During his time in Sweden, Sergio Stuparich undertook research at the Master level in Theoretical Philosophy at Lund University. He also produced the selection of the anthology Uppbrott (1982) and Vote from Latin America (1986), followed by books on Philosophy, Del Homo al Hombre (2011) and El Pensamiento del Siglo XXI (2012), and two memoirs, La Guarida (2008) and Exilio Italiano (2016).
  
  He died in Malmö, Sweden.
