Reunidas por primera vez en un solo volumen y tras dos años de ambicioso y cuidado trabajo editorial, ven la luz un total de diecisiete piezas teatrales, en su gran mayoría inéditas, que se encontraban hasta ahora dispersas en distintos archivos personales e institucionales. Mil paginas de unas obras desafiantes y revolucionarias que acabaron prohibidas por la censura y obligaron a su autor al exilio. En ellas ya se prefiguran algunos de los temas, tramas y personajes que mas tarde caracterizaran tambien su narrativa, asi como una destreza que el mismo consideraria crucial en su escritura: el dominio de los dialogos.En su teatro se pueden distinguir dos etapas. La primera, aun en España, se caracteriza por sus ecos de picaresca, esperpento y voces lorquianas. En la segunda, ya en Francia, se acerca al teatro del absurdo y al surrealismo. Su escritura es una interseccion entre tradiciones, que auna transgresion y lirismo. La alegoria le sirve de recurso para reflejar la sociedad del momento, pero tambien trascenderla en un revelador analisis atemporal de los mecanismos del poder y su contrapunto: figuras disidentes que señalan las fisuras y rompen los tabues para vivir de acuerdo a sus propias reglas.Listado de obras que contiene el volumen:Doña Frivolidad (1955), Unos muertos perdidos (obra perdida), Historia privada de un pequeño pueblo (1959), Verano (1959), Elecciones generales (1959-1960), Fedra en el sur (obra perdida), El tribunal, Prometeo Jimenez, revolucionario (1961), Dialogos de la herejia (1961; nueva version 1980), El salon, Los gatos (1963), Balada matrimonial (1964-1965; nueva version 1996), Queridos mios, es preciso contaros ciertas cosas (1965-1966), Mil y un mesias (1966), Adorado Alberto (1968), Prepapa (1968), Cena con Mr. & Mrs. Q. (1969; nueva version 1996), Sentencia dictada contra P. y J. (1970; nueva version 1993), Interview de Mrs. Muerta Smith por sus fantasmas (1970-1972).Tierra mia, pais mio, hare como los viejos guerreros; no quedara en pie nada que recuerde al pasado, tu opio. Te arrasare primero y luego te construire. Tu proximo arbol no sera el viejo arbol que dio sombra a tantas iniquidades. Sera nuevo y dara sombra a verdades nuevas. Tu proximo pajaro no cantara en mañanas tristemente conocidas. Seran mañanas diferentes, alegres, con una tarea distinta. Una tarea humana que llevara al hombre al conocimiento de su fuerza, de su libertad, donde no quedara rencor ni sombra de esclavitud. Y te proyectaras con hijos verdaderos, que te conozcan y te superen. Tierra mia, pais mio, esperame. Yo pienso en ti. Lucio, Mil y un mesias. A. G. A.

Esta es la primera edición filológica de Temblor de Lima, año de 1609, gobernando el Marqués de Montes Claros, virrey excelentísimo, y una canción real panegírica en la venida de su excelencia a estos reinos (Lima, 1609) obra que, junto a la Cancion real (1612) tambien editada aqui, constituye la produccion poetica de Pedro de Oña (Angol, Chile, 1570-Lima, ¿1643?) dirigida a Juan de Mendoza y Luna, virrey del Peru (1607-1615). Este corpus es una magnifica muestra de las expectativas criollas respecto del alter ego del monarca en Indias y de los medios retoricos y poeticos que la elite criolla empleo para reivindicarse a traves del panegirico de la maxima autoridad virreinal. Por otro lado, el estudio pormenorizado de esta obra panegirica de Oña evidencia la complejidad de los procedimientos retoricos empleados por el encomio, lo que significa devolver a la poesia encomiastica el importante rol que tuvo en la epoca.

Diego de Torres Villarroel (1694-1770) es uno de los autores más importantes en el panorama literario español del siglo XVIII, y uno de los últimos representantes de la estética barroca. Figura singular como pocas, en Torres conviven el literato, el matematico y el astrologo. En un siglo que no conto con demasiados creadores de aliento, el Gran Piscator de Salamanca, como se le conocia, se alza con obras como sus Visiones y visitas de Torres con don Francisco de Quevedo por la Corte (1727-1728), su Vida, ascendencia, nacimiento, crianza y aventuras (1743-1758) o su Barca de Aqueronte (1743), en las que se muestra como prodigioso escritor. Su dedicacion al cultivo de los almanaques, que le otorgaron gran popularidad, revela a un autor ajeno a los nuevos tiempos que anuncian una nueva ciencia presidida por la luz de la razon.

A Times Literary Supplement , Telegraphand Financial TimesBest Book of 2025The glorious gathering-in of his achievement that is The Poems of Seamus Heaney, edited with meticulous care and luminous clarity. . . allows us for the first time to see his dozen formal collections as only the most visible peaks in a constantly rolling range of creativity. Fintan OToole, ObserverThis book is a landmark. [and] lets us see Heaneys work, whose ripples we are still learning to navigate, for the colossal achievement it is, and it reminds us that Heaney is not only a keeper but an enricher of the word-hoard. Philip Terry, GuardianThis is the long-awaited, definitive edition of Seamus Heaneys poetry. It encompasses all the poems Heaney published in his lifetime as well as the small number that appeared after his death: twelve single volumes, from Death of a Naturalist (1966) to Human Chain (2010), and those poems published in pamphlets, journals and magazines or with limited circulation. In addition, the book includes a selection of unpublished material chosen by the poets family.It is a body of work that, in its entirety, resounds with the lyrical beauty and ethical depth cited by the Nobel committee: poems which exalt everyday miracles and the living past.Critical introductions to each collection and notes that illuminate the history and development of the poems make this the essential volume for admirers of Heaneys work.Heaneys voice, by turns mythological and journalistic, rural and sophisticated, reminiscent and impatient, stern and yielding, curt and expansive, is one of a suppleness almost equal to consciousness itself. Helen VendlerMore than any other poet since Wordsworth he can make us understand that the outside world is not outside, but what we are made of. John CareyHis is "closeup" poetry - close up to thought, to the world, to the emotions. Few writers at work today, in verse or fiction, can give the sense of rich, fecund, lived life that Heaney does. John BanvilleThese poems find - in the dowsers gift and the childs perception of the world - images of the marvellous that are also wonderfully grounded. . . Heaney is a poet who deserves to be read in entirety. Jamie McKendrickFor Heaney, there were marvels enough in this world, and never mind the next. Ordinary objects and places - a sofa, a wireless, a satchel, a gust of wind, the sound of rain - were sanctified. Blake Morrison

Everyday life always offers a variety of colorful and gray to black experiences, which usually have some kind of influence on life and are thus reflected in these stories and poems. And because life is so infinitely diverse, the whole thing is called "Allerlei" (All Sorts).I owe my lines to the diversity of life, my inspirations and ideas, which were simply given to me along with the ability to write poetry.These lines are intended to bring a smile, joy, and laughter to the faces of some of my contemporaries, while also giving them something to think about and perhaps even prompting them to rethink things.

Imagine opening yourself up completely to the unknown. This is the story of a friendship between two people who couldnt be more different. They have nothing in common: not gender, age, family status, culture, or religion. Between them lies a chasm of ignorance and prejudice, and a pandemic that gives them the time to build a bridge. It is the story of a change of perspective and what can come of it. This book is also a socio-cultural reflection on the question: What would be possible if we broke down enemy stereotypes in the world in order to solve the worlds problems together? It is a plea for acceptance, openness, and humanity, and for discovering the gift that lies hidden in these values for all of us.
