a Spanish post-romanticist poet and writer (mostly short stories), also a playwright, literary columnist, and talented in drawing. In 1853, at the age of seventeen, he moved to Madrid to follow his dream of making a name for himself as a poet. A year later, in 1854, he moved to Toledo with his brother Valeriano, a lovely place in which he was able to write his book: "History of the Spanish temples". The poet was interested in Lord George Gordon Byron and his "Hebrew Melodies" or his "Heine del Intermezzo", with Eulogio Florentino's help in the translation.
