Jose Amador De los Rios (1818–1878), Spanish literary critic and historian. In addition to works on general Spanish literary history, Amador wrote Estudios historicos, politicos y literarios sobre los Judios de Espana (1848), which was one of the first serious studies on Spanish Jews. This work earned him a chair at Madrid University. Included in his book are numerous quotations from works by Sephardi authors, especially poets, thus introducing them to the Spanish public.
