SELECTED TEXTS

In these pages I gather a few articles long out of print, many published previously only in Spanish or German. All texts are protected by copyright.

NOTE
I am gradually shifting this section over to my blog, where articles can be illustrated more freely. For a complete and up-to-date list, see "Selected Texts: Spain", "Portugal" and "US" on my blog.
