was a Spanish academic and independent left-wing activist. Born to an
aristocratic family, Robles embraced left-wing views which forced him to
leave Spain and go into exile in the United States. In the 1920's he was
teaching at Johns Hopkins University and became friend of writer John
dos Passos, at the time also supporting the radical left, and his
translator to Spanish. Actually his translation of Manhattan Transfer is
still considered to be exemplary. He also translated some works of
Sinclair Lewis
