Weinberger earned the citation by virtue of his translations into English of the work of noted Mexican poet Octavio Paz. Additionally, Weinberger has edited and translated work by Jorge Luis Borges and other Spanish-language writers, and he is also the author of essays and criticism collected in such books as Outside Stories and Karmic Traces. Weinberger's own nonfiction writings often address political issues in the United States.

Author Disambiguation

How many authors?

Eliot Weinberger is currently considered a "single author." If one or more works are by a distinct, homonymous authors, go ahead and split the author.

This entry includes…

Combine with…

What?

Q: What is this feature for/why is it necessary?

A: Because LibraryThing draws from so many different libraries, it can't enforce a single name for a given author. "Also known as" lets LibraryThing users combine author's names easily, so collections match up and everything runs smoothly.

Q: Can I combine with an author not suggested above?

A: Yes you can.

Q: I know an author is separate, but some well-meaning but deplorably uninformed person keeps combining them! Can I take a name off the combination list?

A: Yes you can.

Look up! Everything in the "Combine with..." section now has a link to "never combine." Use this feature wisely. "Marc Twain" may be idiotic, but misspelling should still be combined. "Mark Twain" and "Edward Gibbon" should not.

Q: What authors have already been slated to "never combine" with this author?

A: No authors.

Q: I am said person and I'm right!

A: Take it to the Combiners group.
