Abstract
The parallel in this title aims to reflect Jaime Siles’ foundations in science and his vocation as a poet. Taken together, these two qualities define his life and work: education —both his own and the education of others— on the one hand, and poetry —its practice and its theory— on the other. For the former I shall analyze one of Siles’ scientific works, which I propose should be newly pub-lished and updated. For the latter I shall offer some comments on his poetry, the intention of which is only to express the emotional response his poems elicit in this reader.
