César González-Ruano

César González-Ruano (1903-1965) was a Spanish journalist, poet, novelist, and biographer. As a poet, he was closely associated with the Ultraísta movement in Spain during the 1920s; as biographer, he published widely read books on Baudelaire, Zola, Wilde, and Mata-Hari. He and Vallejo would not have remained cordial for very long, for González-Ruano became an avid supporter of Franco at the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War.
