A disciple of Nicolás Salmerón, he often acted as a substitute to fill this mentor's Chair in Metaphysics at the Universidad Central in Madrid. He was also a pioneering investigator in a number of fields, particularly applied sociology and psychology. As an educator he placed emphasis on the knowledge of physical mechanisms in the rational learning process. He translated works from the German, and co-edited an edition of the poetry of Ramón de Campoamor.
