Resumen del Libro

Libro La tradición manuscrita de los Sueños de Quevedo y la primera edición

Annotation Between 1605 and 1621, Quevedo wrote a sequence of five "Dreams" or "Visions" "(Suenos y discursos), in each of which he hilariously envisions Spanish society as populated by people rightfully condemned to Hell. These astonishingly witty and irreverent satires of contemporary Spanish culture, morality, prejudice and religious fanaticism, were composed in a style as allusive, elliptical and equivocal as to successfully entertain both those who barely understood their full range and import, and others who celebrated the poet's rebellious insinuations. Censorship prohibited the publication of such satire in its original form, but hundreds of copies were made by hand and circulated widely. In 1993 a critical edition of all of the surviving manuscripts was published. Crosby's work compares this version with all of the 43 extant manuscripts, and for the first time identifies those groups of manuscripts from which the publishers of the first edition derived their text. This text can now be seen as a version not only censored, but corrupted successively by copyists and editors who did not understand Quevedo's satire. The result is hardly what Spain's most famous satirist originally wrote.

Crítica y vanguardia

Libro Crítica y vanguardia

Este libro se propone la exploración del modo en que arraigaron y germinaron en la vida literaria española las semillas de los movimientos de vanguardia, desde el manifiesto futurista recogido en la revista Prometeo hasta el umbral de los años treinta, cuando una conjunción de acontecimientos políticos y literarios llevó a la crítica y autocrítica de las normas de vanguardia forjadas en los años anteriores, cerrando un ciclo de perfiles netos. Mediante el examen de las revistas y algunos ensayos (Literaturas europeas de vanguardia, La deshumanización del arte, El nuevo romanticismo) ...

Salida de emergencia

Libro Salida de emergencia

A group of thirty chronicles that Fabrizio Meja Madrid spun along thirteen years while strolling up and down the national territory, from the forest to the desert, from the mountains to the highlands, to end, like so many other Mexicans every year, crossing the northern frontier. New drugs, saints with beatified roosters, murderers of one night and of one life, communards with "machetes" and teachers surrounding the foreigner murdered in Oaxaca, a town of kidnappers and three missing towns, the television that presents circus phenomena, the fantasies of the national porn, the corpses of too...
