Germinal Cocho

Resumen

Adonis Germinal Cocho Gil was born in Madrid on International Workers Day in 1933 and passed away in Mexico City last year on the anniversary of the Allied victory over the Nazi Germany. Two extraordinary dates mark the vital interval of this extraordinary man. His father, a republican lawyer could not have greater success in naming him Germinal, which is the seventh month of the French revolutionary calendar, marking the start of the season when the seeds in the soil germinate. That was the passage through this world of this “Mexican with Hispanic origin scientist” as he defined himself.
