Biography

His parents were Adelaida Ruano Marroquín and José María Bonilla Carrillo. He completed his early studies in his native Jalapa. Before he turned seventeen years old, he received his teacher-training certificate from the Central Normal School of Professors. Immediately after, he graduated with a bachelor's degree in science and letters from the National Central Institute for men. As he continued his studies for his bachelor's degree, he was in charge of the direction of the preparatory school annexed to the Institute- making him a secondary school professor for many years.

In the Public Education branch, he was also the head of Normal, Secondary, and Special Education, professor at the National University (summer courses), and member of the Departmental Board and the Advisory Committee.

On October 24, 1930, the Real Academy of Madrid awarded him his own diploma in the class of Foreign Correspondence in Guatemala. Later on the members of the Guatemalan Academy unanimously voted him in as Censor of said academy.

Works

Jose Maria Bonilla Ruano published various Works, including the “Curso Didáctico y Razonado de Gramática Castellana” (The Didactic and Reasoned Course of Castillan Grammar). Since being published in 1923, it was adopted as a textbook in secondary teaching establishments. The Guatemalan press highlighted this book and the “Obra de Derecho Internacional Privado” (Work of Private International Rights) by Doctor Jose Matos. These works were edited almost simultaneously in the same workshop and were the most complete works in their respective genres at that time.

“Anotaciones Crítico-didácticas” (Critical Didactic Annotations) is a long exposition of the motives surrounding the substantial reforms to the lyrics of “Guatemala, feliz” (The National Anthem of Guatemala written by José Joaquín Palma). These reforms were written by the same author of the Nation Anthem and were adopted by government agreement on July 26, 1934. Bonilla's work was written in Brussels, Belgium and printed on the author’s own property. The work also contains a universal hymnbook with Spanish translations. It is about various civic and international issues in connection with the other patriotic symbols of Guatemala.
