From Penúltimos Días:
Hoy todos los martianos — que es decir, todos los cubanos buenos — estamos de plácemes porque ha reaparecido en el Internet, después de una lamentable ausencia de 8 años, el sitio web dedicado a las Obras de Carlos Ripoll sobre José Martí y otros temas de la historia cubana. Como investigador, crítico y exponente de la vida y obra de Martí, Ripoll ocupa un lugar privilegiado, porque le tocó a él — principal y casi exclusivamente a él — la tarea de no sólo difundir pero defender el legado martiano ante las falsificaciones de los meretrices oficiales del régimen, que por 50 años han pretendido ver en su amo la imagen de Martí y en Martí el rostro de Marx. No creo que ningún cubano desde el exilio haya hecho obra más útil o de mayor trascendencia para el futuro de la patria.

Manuel:
Gracias por el link.
Vana:
I am glad that you have found the link useful. No facet of Martí's life is left uncommented by Ripoll and innumerable new facts are identified and highlighted by him. The hundreds of articles that comprise the Works of Carlos Ripoll, written over a period of more than 40 years by the preeminent authority on Martí, here or on the island, is the most authoritative resource available on the internet for the study of José Martí. I call your attention especially to the "Falsification of José Martí in Cuba," available in both Spanish and English. I am honored to have collaborated with Ripoll on several occasions and you will find me mentioned there as well.
Manuel:
This work is sooo extensive, I'm so excited to experience it, it's going to take me awhile to take it all in, but am on the job, thanks again for showing me the way.
Would like to familiarize myself more with his life, how about a post from you.
Thanks my friend.
