  • Francisco Mariano Nipho (1719 in Alcañiz – 1803 in Madrid) was a Spanish writer and journalist. Nicknamed the "freak of nature", he is regarded in Spain as one of the best journalists of all time. During the reign of Charles III, he established himself as the founder of modern journalism and the first professional journalist. Born Francisco Manuel Mariano Nipho in Alcaniz, as a young boy his family moved to Madrid where he grew up, worked, and lived the rest of his life. Nipho joined the idea of modernity with Spanish spiritual tradition. He founded a number of newspapers that went under different pseudonyms: "Mariano de la Say", "Manuel Ruiz de Uribe" ...Nipho facet highlighted artistic and social responsibility of journalism, but he reported little benefit economically. He said that journalism was "a painful and unprofitable occupation", but states that the real task of journalism is to "educate and moralize." Like many European journalists of the period, he made extensive use of translation, and may be credited with publishing the earliest known direct English-to-Spanish translations of a literary text. It was not until his later years when he would begin to establish their economic and professional, serving as censor in late 18th century. (en)
