Autorenporträt
Vicente Blasco Ibanez was a journalist, politician, and best-selling Spanish novelist in a variety of genres, best known in the English-speaking world for Hollywood films based on his work. He was born in Valencia. He studied law at university and graduated in 1888, but he never practiced because his interests were in politics, journalism, and literature. He was particularly fond of Miguel de Cervantes. In politics, he was a fierce Republican partisan in his youth, and he established the newspaper El Pueblo (English as The People) in his birthplace, where he launched the Republican populist political movement known as Blasquismo. The journal caused so much controversy that it was brought to court several times. He volunteered to edit the work Noli Me Tangere, in which Filipino nationalist Jose Rizal expressed his displeasure with the Spanish colonialism of the Philippines. In 1909, he proceeded to Argentina and established two new communities, Nueva Valencia and Cervantes. He held seminars on historical events and Spanish literature. Tired and dissatisfied by government failings and inaction, he traveled to Paris at the start of World War I. Living in Paris, he was connected to poet and writer Robert W. Service by their mutual publisher Fisher Unwin, who asked Service to act as an interpreter for an Ibanez-related contract.
