Luis Rosales

Died in 1992

Luis Rosales was born in Granada in 1910, into a very conservative family. He studied philosophy and law in Granada, then settled in Madrid in 1932, where he continued his studies in letters and became friends with Pedro Salinas and Jorge Guillén, who welcomed him into the journal Los Cuatro Vientos. In August 1936, Federico García Lorca, who had taken refuge in the Rosales family home in Granada, was arrested there: the episode marked his whole life. A member of the Spanish Academy, winner of the Cervantes Prize in 1982, he died in Madrid in 1992.
