JBJaime Gil de Biedma
Jaime Gil de Biedma y Alba (Nava de la Asunción, Segovia, 13 de noviembre de 1929 - Barcelona, 8 de enero de 1990) fue un poeta español, uno de los autores más importantes de la Generación del 50. Nacido en 1929 el seno de una familia de la alta burguesía castellana, su padre se trasladó a Barcelona para trabajar en la Compañía de Tabacos de Filipinas. El que fuera su despacho puede ser visitado hoy en día en el Hotel 1898 en La Rambla de Barcelona. Gil de Biedma estudió Derecho en Barcelona y en Salamanca, donde obtuvo la licenciatura en dicha materia. Su poesía evoluciona desde los primeros poemas intimistas de Las afueras al compromiso social de Compañeros de viaje. Al mismo tiempo es una poesía que evita constantemente el surrealismo y busca la contemporaneidad y la racionalidad a toda costa a través de un lenguaje coloquial, si bien desnudo de toda referencia innecesaria. Verdadero exponente de lo que se suele denominar una doble vida, Biedma desarrolla actividades...

One of his most famous poems, Ethics for Everyman, deals with double-morality of ethical principles.

AAAtzberger Alexandru
"Hospitalario y fiel en su reflejo donde a ser apariencia se acostumbra el material vivir, esta el espejo como un claro de luna en la penumbra. Pompa le da en las noches la flotante claridad de la lampara, y tristeza la rosa que en el vaso agonizante tambien en el inclina la cabeza. Si hace doble el dolor, tambien repite las cosas que me son jardin del alma y acaso espera que algun dia habite en la ilusion de su azulada calma, el Huesped que le deje reflejedas frentes juntas y manos enlazadas."

RSRobert Silverberg
Robert Silverberg (born January 15, 1935 in Brooklyn, NY) is a prolific author best known for writing science fiction, a multiple winner of both the Hugo and Nebula Awards. Silverberg, a voracious reader from childhood on, began submitting stories to the science fiction magazines in his early teenage years. He attended Columbia University, receiving an A.B. in English Literature in 1956, but he kept writing science fiction. His first published novel, a children's book called Revolt on Alpha C appeared in 1955, and in the following year, he won his first Hugo, as "best new writer." For the next four years, by his own count, he wrote a million words a year, for magazines and Ace Doubles. In 1959 the market for science fiction collapsed, and Silverberg turned his ability to write copiously to other fields, from carefully researched historical nonfiction to softcore porn for Nightstand Books. In the mid-1960s science fiction writers were starting to be more literarily ambitious, and...
