The work that the reader has in his hands is not an autobiography nor a memoir to dry, as we know them normally. To more accurately classify the content of these pages have to think more in professional reports, subgenus little used in Spain, where memories and autobiography have more followers. Do not look here, then, personal, intimate or public, related to the author's biography. What this shows is his career as a professional typography, spelling, and Bibliology orthotypography, subjects tried, studied, and applied to cultivated throughout his life and has now rescued from the deep limbo that is the inexorable time and whose vision offers us in these pages.The title of the work, before I forget, has a double interpretation. It refers, firstly, the fact intimate that the influence of time on the physiological nature of the author later remember you from that which he lived, suffered or enjoyed from a particular point of view and on the other hand, the fact external others forget it without having become acquainted with some facts that will surely be helpful, curious and instructive to some people. What the author does not want to forget is his time on earth typographical, editorial and bibliologic, beginning with his start as a typesetter in Seville (school workshop of the City), followed by Madrid (Labor and Topographic Brigade of Staff ) and Barcelona (correcting typographical and style, editor, technical publishing, lexicographer, etc.: Editorial Bruguera, La Vanguardia, Labor, Biblograf) and ending with his role as writer, teacher workshops and university courses and lectured at conferences and other events cultural.Jose Martinez de Sousa has not wanted his professional experiences are lost in oblivion. It has seemed best to draw a comprehensive scheme that would fit their beginnings, their struggle, their yearnings and their process of constant self improvement taking advantage of every opportunity that life has offered ... There in the work a more or less pleasant memory for friends, colleagues and people with whom he has agreed or which has been crossed. A career of over fifty years gives to many considerations.
