Humberto E. Robles (1938-2021): Friend, Collegue, Mentor

This tribute to Humberto E. Robles follows two complementary directions: two book reviews and two objectives. From my reflections on La noción de vanguardia en el Ecuador. Recepción, trayectoria y documentos 1918-1934 (1989) and Imagen e idea de Guayaquil (2019), I intend, first, to acknowledge his valuable legacy of knowledge and critical readings that will continue to guide future readers of Latin American literature and culture in general. Then, I offer here a testimony of my personal friendship with Humberto that was born in Guayaquil’s Municipal Library in 1979.
