José Carlos Mainer Baqué (born 1944) is a Spanish historian of literature and literary critic,[1] Professor Emeritus of the University of Zaragoza (UNIZAR).[2] He is credited for his interdisciplinary scholar work intermingling studies on cultural and literary history.[3]

Biography[edit]

Born in 1944 in Zaragoza,[1] he earned a PhD in Philosophy and Arts from the University of Barcelona (UB).[4] Author of the pioneer Falange and literatura in 1971, his work regarding the study of literary fascism has been described as "exculpatory" towards the Falangist authors involved.[5] He worked as lecturer at the UB, the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB) and the University of La Laguna (ULL)[4] before obtaining a Chair in Literary History of the University of Zaragoza (UNIZAR) in 1982.[6] He retired from teaching in 2011 and remains active as writer, critic and lecturer and collaborates with the newspapers El Pais and ABC.

Awards and recognitions[edit]

In December 2002 he was granted by the Diputación General de Aragón the second edition of the 'Premio de las Letras Aragonesas'.[7] In 2004 he was awarded with the journalism prize for the cultural, ethic and democratic values from the Basque Country by the newspaper El Correo.[8] In 2011, in the year of his retirement as a professor at the University of Zaragoza, the book Para Mainer de sus amigos y compañeros de viaje[9] has been edited.
