Author: Torres, C. R.

Contents: This essay describes the lives, athletic involvement and Olympic participation of Francisco Carmelo and Carmelo Felix Camet, and clarifies several misunderstandings surrounding the first Argentine entry at the Olympic Games. While outlining the afflictions and accomplishments of the first Argentine Olympian father and son, the essay also explores the development of fencing in Argentina during the first decades of the twentieth century. This story reveals not only a familial love affair with fencing but also a period of fluid conversation between Argentine and European fencing circles.
