Ramn Prez De AyalaRamn Prez de Ayala (1880? - 1962) was a Spanish writer. Background Prez de Ayala was educated at Jesuit schools, the experience of which he satirized in the novel A.M.D.G. (1910). His early realistic novels reveal ties with the Generation of 98. After 1916, his novels became increasingly mature and lyrical, his characters becoming symbolic representatives of general human problems. To this period belongs his masterpieces, Belarmino y Apolonio (1921), Tiger Juan (1926) and El curandero de su honra (The Healer of his Honour) (1927). Tiger Juan was translated into English by Walter Starkie in 1933, but is long out of print. La paz del sendero (The Peace of the Path) (1903), El sendero innumerable (1916), and El sendero andante (1921), his major poetic works, show the influence of French symbolism. He also wrote satiric essays and dramatic criticism. Works Available in English Belarmino and Apolonio (1990) Quartet Books.
