Filósofo, traductor, profesor universitario y sacerdote español nacido en Arjonilla (Jaén) en 1886 y fallecido en Madrid el 7 de diciembre de 1942. Humanista fecundo y polifacético, vivamente interesado por todas las corrientes del pensamiento actual (y, en especial, por el bergsonismo, la fenomenología y la axiología o teoría de los valores), acusó la notable influencia filosófica y personal (tanto en su obra como en su propia vida) de su maestro, colega y amigo José Ortega y Gasset, hasta el extremo de convertirse en uno de los más autorizados difusores de su pensamiento. A la postre, sus inquietudes religiosas le fueron llevando hacia una filosofía espiritualista cuyo eje central fue la especulación sobre el tema de Dios.
