Jaime Gil de Biedma
Jaime Gil de Biedma, an influential post Civil War Spanish poet (with Carlos Barral), was born in Barcelona in 1929 the same city where he died in 1990, although he had very deliberately stopped writing poetry some ten years before, insisting that the character he had invented, the poet Jaime Gil de Biedma, as opposed to the respectable bourgeois businessman of the same name, had nothing left to say and he refused to go on playing the role of a poet in literary society.
