In the words of Martí de Riquer, José María Valverde (1926-1996) was "a complete writer, an excellent poet, an excellent prose writer, a literary critic of great acuity and originality and a great historian of literature". We might even add "an extraordinary translator". Valverde, indeed, cultivated a multiplicity of registers and genres and excelled in all of them. Many of those who have dealt with him consider him a master, a sage of language. Language, the verb, in fact, was his obsession, the constant object of his reflection. In the volume you have in your hands - and which brings together the contributions to the Symposium that the Ferrater Mora Chair dedicated to him in December 2021 on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of his death - the reader will be able to see to what extent Valverde was an author interested in multiple questions both of philosophy and of writing in general and very particularly of poetry. They will also find elements to understand why he left such a notable mark on the generations of thinkers who succeeded him, a mark that is still perfectly perceptible today in our universities. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
