Victor Emilio Moscoso Cárdenas was a 19th-century Ecuadorian Jesuit priest and educator. Born in Cuenca in 1846, he initially studied law before joining the Society of Jesus in 1864. He spent much of his career in Riobamba, where he taught grammar and rhetoric and served as the rector of the San Felipe Neri college. His life ended during the Liberal Revolution of 1895, when he was killed by soldiers during a period of intense anti-religious sentiment in the country.
