Abstract
GOMIZ-LEON, Juan José. Notes and brief thoughts about Dr. Luis Cifuentes Delatte (1907-2005). Arch. Esp. Urol. [online]. 2008, vol.61, n.10, pp.1203-1211. ISSN 0004-0614.
This paper offers a brief biographical sketch of Dr. Luis Cifuentes Delatte (1907-2005) and his professional and educational activities developed in his late years in the Department of Urology at Fundacion Jimenez Diaz (1979-1987), from the perspective, the testimony and particular point of view of the author. In addition, we emphasize the friendship of Dr. Luis Cifuentes with the philosopher Xavier Zubiri (1898-1983) and his cultural links with the intellectual society of his time, his origin and personal trajectory from the Ortega's philosophical-humanist view. In the same way we emphasize Dr. Luis Cifuentes Delatte's contribution to the National Academy of Medicine, where he was member (1972-2005), summarizing his lectures; we also briefly show some of the, unfortunately scarce, autobiographical memories the distinguished urologist published.
Keywords : Luis Cifuentes Delatte; Xavier Zubiri; Julian Marías.
