Sinopsis de LAVENGRO: THE SCHOLAR, THE GYPSY, THE PRIEST

In "Lavengro: The Scholar, the Gypsy, the Priest," George Borrow weaves a semi-autobiographical narrative that traverses the realms of identity, culture, and spirituality. The work is rich with lyrical prose and vivid descriptions, encapsulating Borrows encounters with diverse characters, particularly the Roma community, while offering profound reflections on language and faith. The bookÄôs structure embodies a blend of travel literature and philosophical discourse, highlighting the Victorian fascination with the exotic and the mystical, while also exposing societal prejudices and the quest for self-discovery. George Borrow, an English writer and an accomplished linguist, was profoundly influenced by his early interactions with Romani culture and his career as a traveler. His empathetic portrayal of marginalized communities stems from his life experiences and a deep understanding of their traditions. This background not only informs the character of the Gypsy but also allows Borrow to explore the complex interplay of various societal roles, particularly that of the scholar and the priest, as mirrors to his own life journey. "Lavengro" is a compelling tale that invites readers to embark on a voyage of enlightenment and understanding. Ideal for those seeking to explore themes of belonging, faith, and cultural identity, this book is an essential read for anyone interested in the rich tapestry of 19th-century English literature and the human condition.

Escrito por George Borrow


George Borrow (East Dereham, 1803), viaxeiro, tradutor e escritor, manifesta dende novo o seu interese por coñecer as linguas do mundo. Aprende galés, danés, hebreo, árabe, armenio e alemán. Fai traducións e inicia unha vida errante que o leva a percorrer Inglaterra, onde entra en relación coa Sociedade Bíblica Británica e Estranxeira e, por conta dela, marcha a Rusia para aprender a lingua tártaro-manchú e traducir o Novo Testamento. Unha vez publicado, decide distribuílo el mesmo, percorrendo España metro a metro. Viaxa por Galicia durante o verán de 1837. En 1842 remata The Bible in Spain, o libro que tanta sona lle había de dar e do que agora Xerais publica a parte referida a Galicia.
