FERNANDO SÁNCHEZ DRAGÓ
Fernando Sánchez Dragó (1936-2023) invited me several times to his Telemadrid " Las Noches Blancas " program to talk about lexicography and my dictionaries. He was the perfect television and literary host. He read thoroughly the books he would talk about and researched the authors. A cursory peep at YouTube will show the hundreds of interviews he made during his TV career. He was also a prolific writer and a controversial persona. He favored me with a Prologue to my Gramática inglesa (Anaya, 2015), as well as with his friendship. He died yesterday and with him disappeared a controversial, prolific, and outspoken person. Somehow -don´t ask me why- I feel I must mention his passing in this Blog.
