Eurípides es el más inquieto y apasionado de los tres grandes autores trágicos griegos. Seguramente también es el más influyente, gracias a su sensibilidad poética, más cercana a la actual. A diferencia de Esquilo y Sofocles, que le precedieron, Euripides humaniza y dota de caracter realista al mito, da rienda suelta a los arrebatos poeticos, a la vez que tambien se muestra muy racionalista. En este contraste contradictorio radica parte de su encanto y de su modernidad. El tercer y ultimo volumen que recoge las tragedias completas de Euripides en la Biblioteca Clasica incluye: Helena, Las fenicias, Orestes, Ifigenia en Aulide, Las bacantes y la debatida Reso.

It highlights the contrast between Toms book-learning and Hucks pragmatic worldview in an exotic setting.

A cien años de su publicación, Tirano Banderas no ha perdido un ápice de vigencia y se disfruta hoy como un atlas, tan real como simbólico, del poder totalitario.En 1926, se publicó por primera vez Tirano Banderas, una novela radical Valle-Inclan en forma y fondo. Con ella, el autor rompe con las formas narrativas tradicionales, implanta el esperpento en la novela y construye un retrato feroz del poder totalitario. Aunque ambientada en una republica ficticia (se descubre el paisaje de Mexico como trasfondo, pais al que viajo Valle en distintas ocasiones), la novela no busca verosimilitud telurica sino retratar la estructura psicologica del despotismo.La figura del general Santos Banderas no es solo un personaje, sino una sintesis del caudillo iberoamericano, desde Rosas hasta Trujillo, pasando por Porfirio Diaz. Con su prosa riquisima, su lexico mestizo, su mirada deformante y su critica brutal, Valle-Inclan abre un camino que recorreran luego Asturias, Roa Bastos, Garcia Marquez o Vargas Llosa, entre otros.A cien años de su publicacion, Tirano Banderas no ha perdido un apice de vigencia: la manipulacion del lenguaje, el uso del terror como herramienta politica, el culto al lider, la violencia institucionalizada... siguen presentes en muchas naciones a lo largo y ancho del planeta. Esta obra no solo es una pieza literaria de primer orden: es un mapa actual y simbolico del poder.

In Thomas Mann: Short Stories & Novellas, readers will find a rich tapestry of narratives that showcase Manns intricate storytelling and nuanced exploration of the human condition. Across these short stories and novellas, Mann demonstrates his mastery in interweaving themes of identity, morality, and cultural critique within a backdrop of early 20th century Europe. His characteristic blend of philosophical musings and vivid character studies is evident throughout, combining introspective prose with a keen observation of societal complexities. Manns ability to deftly balance metaphorical detail with an overarching narrative structure places these works among the pinnacles of literary modernism. Born in 1875 in northern Germany, Thomas Mann grew to become one of the most influential writers of his time, deeply engaging with the intellectual and political life of his era. His experiences during the rise of Fascism in Germany, combined with his extensive background in German philosophy and literature, profoundly influenced his writing. Manns works often reflect his contemplations on the dichotomies of intellectual life and bourgeois society, themes likely nurtured by his own displacement during World War II and his complex identity as a German expatriate.
