El defensor is a collection of five essays written by Pedro Salinas during his Puerto Rican exile between 1942 and 1946. These essays share a common concern for the risk faced by some traditional forms of the life of the spirit. This commemorative edition of the centenary of the author's birth includes a biographical note by Montserrat Escartín Gual.
Pedro Salinas y Serrano was a Spanish poet, a member of the Generation of '27, as well as a university teacher, scholar and literary critic. In 1937, he delivered the Turnbull lectures at Johns Hopkins University. These were later published under the title Reality and the Poet in Spanish Poetry.
