Eduardo Aguirre (Madrid, 1958) is a journalist, writer and cultural manager in León. For 39 years he has published a column in Diario de León entitled “Al Trasluz,”
analyzing the day to day with a touch of humor and not without a touch of fine irony. Aguirre is also a brilliant heir to the Cervantine passion of his father, Joaquín Aguirre Bellver, who dedicated a large part of his life to studying the Golden Age and who, in his book Cómo se escribió el Quijote, (University of Alcalá, 2003), presented his thesis on this novel, in which he perceived that Cervantes was hiding a draft in verse. He has already in print a new Cervantine essay: Cervantes y la ternura humorística (Cervantes and humorous tenderness).
