Edición de María Teresa Ruestes con la colaboración de Antonio Ramajo y José Solís de los Santos.Fernando de Herrera publicó relativamente poco y es recordado sobre todo por su propia colección poética, Algunas obras (1582), dechado de precision clasicista y exquisitez lirica. Admiradores y amigos de Herrera, encabezados por el pintor Francisco Pacheco, publicaron en 1619 un grueso volumen de Versos del sevillano, muchos de ellos ineditos.La presente edicion para la BCRAE sigue el volumen impreso en 1582, del que se han cotejado todos los ejemplares conocidos, incluido uno que contiene correcciones manuscritas del propio autor. Se estudian asimismo las diferencias entre esa edicion y la postuma (1619), para otorgarle a esta ultima mayor relevancia autorial de la que se le habia reconocido; se han tenido en cuenta tambien los manuscritos conservados, en especial uno de 1578 con abundantes poesias no recogidas en los impresos, y el conjunto se completa con cuatro poemas latinos de juventud.El resultado es una edicion cuidada al detalle que se erige en interpretacion integral de una de las cimas indiscutibles de la poesia amatoria, elegiaca y heroica del Siglo de Oro.

It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen. Winston Smith, his chin nuzzled into his breast in an effort to escape the vile wind, slipped quickly through the glass doors of Victory Mansions, though not quickly enough to prevent a swirl of gritty dust from entering along with him.The hallway smelt of boiled cabbage and old rag mats. At one end of it a coloured poster, too large for indoor display, had been tacked to the wall. It depicted simply an enormous face, more than a metre wide: the face of a man of about forty-five, with a heavy black moustache and ruggedly handsome features.Winston made for the stairs. It was no use trying the lift. Even at the best of times it was seldom working, and at present the electric current was cut off during daylight hours. It was part of the economy drive in preparation for Hate Week. The flat was seven flights up, and Winston, who was thirty-nine and had a varicose ulcer above his right ankle, went slowly, resting several times on the way. On each landing, opposite the lift-shaft, the poster with the enormous face gazed from the wall. It was one of those pictures which are so contrived that the eyes follow you about when you move.BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU, the caption beneath it ran.

Mohand-Said Ait-Taleb is an enigma. Living in France but ravaged by memories of the war in Algeria, he has withdrawn into his own world, away from his wife and children. When his son Xavier discovers articles by Albert Camus describing the appalling conditions his father grew up in, he starts to piece together the story of his life.Xavier retraces the steps of this dignified, illiterate and strong-willed man: from Kabylia where starving children, like Mohand-Said, fought with dogs for scraps to the metal factory in Normandy, where his father would spend the rest of his days, consumed with providing for his family. It is there that Xavier discovers his love of books. When he breaks with conservative family traditions and confesses his attraction to men, Xavier will find which doors slam closed and which will open.A Man With No Title is a beautiful and moving tribute to a father, to the immigrants condemned to undertake the hardest work for meagre reward, and to the power of literature to transcend class.
