Arturo Martínez Galindo

Died in 1940

Arturo Martínez Galindo was born in Tegucigalpa, in 1900 or 1903. In the mid-twenties he co-founded the magazine Ariel, then went abroad, where he discovered avant-garde prose, and lived for a time in New Orleans. Back in Honduras, he founded and ran newspapers and signed political articles under the pseudonyms Julio Sol and Armando Imperio. A critic of the dictatorship, he was murdered in 1940 at Sabá, in the department of Colón, in circumstances that have never been cleared up.
