Robin des Bois : un bandit qui vivait dans la forêt et dont les aventures et l'exceptionnelle adresse au tir à l'arc ont traversé les siècles.

De cape et d'épée ? Non. Messire Robin est le plus grand archer du comté de Nottingham. Un proscrit toutefois. Un coureur de bois que sa fougue entraîne parfois vers un destin contraire. Délivrer Christabel retenue prisonnière par son père, lord Fitz-Alwin. L'aider à fuir avec le chevalier Allan Clare. Robin des Bois peut-il servir plus noble cause ? Entre les soldats du château et l'intrépide hors-la-loi, le combat est sans merci. De guet-apens en traquenards, de cachots en souterrains. Meurtres, incendies, clameurs guerrières sèment la violence partout dans la forêt de Sherwood. Mais Robin n'épargne ni ses forces ni son intelligence pour réunir les amants traqués. Et lui, le séducteur qui se rit de tout, n'est-il pas amoureux ? De la s?ur d'Allan, bien sûr ! La belle Marianne. Mais peut-il prétendre à sa main ? L'aventure sied aux âmes bien nées et leur réserve parfois bien des surprises.

Un clásico de enorme poder de sugestión, a través de la figura del hombre solitario que, luego de sobrevivir a la injusta condena y la miserable prisión, regresa para hacer justicia. Retrato de época, romántico, crítico y social, por un genio del siglo XIX.

En Los tres mosqueteros, novela llena de peripecias e intrigas y quintaesencia del género de aventuras, se puede apreciar ese sabor único e inolvidable que poseen las obras animadas por el mero gusto de contar. Enfrentados a su tenebrosa enemiga Milady, el gascon dArtagnan y los mosqueteros Athos, Porthos y Aramis, tienen presentes los conceptos del honor y la caballerosidad, pero los mueve tambien la astucia y el afan de poder y riqueza, asi como la busqueda del triunfo que encarna la celebre divisa Todos para uno y uno para todos. Alexandre Dumas padre (1802-1870) es uno de los escritores franceses mas leidos y populares. Dentro de su prolifica obra destaca, junto con Los tres mosqueteros, la novela El conde de Montecristo.

The Count of Monte Cristo (French: Le Comte de Monte-Cristo) is an adventure novel by Alexandre Dumas, pere. It is often considered, along with The Three Musketeers, as Dumas most popular work. It is also among the highest selling books of all time. The writing of the work was completed in 1844. Like many of his novels, it is expanded from the plot outlines suggested by his collaborating ghostwriter Auguste Maquet.The story takes place in France, Italy, islands in the Mediterranean and the Levant during the historical events of 18151838 (from just before the Hundred Days through the reign of Louis-Philippe of France). The historical setting is a fundamental element of the book. It is primarily concerned with themes of hope, justice, vengeance, mercy, forgiveness and death, and is told in the style of an adventure story.

"La guerra de las mujeres" fue publicada por entregas en el diario La Patrie en 1849 y al parecer Dumas fue llevado a los tribunales por el director, ya que los capítulos aparecían con demasiada irregularidad. Parece bastante probado que Marquet colaboro en su elaboracion con Dumas, aunque el estilo permanece intacto.La accion se situa en plena insurreccion de La Fronda, (1648-1653) con el principe de Conde prisionero en Vincennes y las dos grandes mujeres, Ana de Austria y la Princesa de Conde dirigiendo los movimientos de tropas que las enfrentan. Son los mismos años en que se ambienta "Veinte años despues", la obra que cierra la historia de los mosqueteros.Y a un nivel mas cercano, otras dos mujeres luchan tambien, Nanon de Lartigues y Claire de Cambes; luchan por el amor de un hombre desde bandos enfrentados: el Baron de Canolles, personaje real. Entre medias, el aventurero picaro Cauvignac, personaje de ficcion, cambia de identidad y de bando segun soplan vientos de una u otra clase, y no duda de usar cualquier medio para salir adelante y salvar el pellejo, involucrando a otros muchos personajes y creando un verdadero caos."La guerra de las mujeres" es una novela de aventuras interesantisima, de ritmo in crescendo, con ambiente, hechos y personajes historicos reales, aunque con algunas variaciones que Dumas se permite en su desarrollo.

Alejandro Dumas visitó España en los meses de octubre y noviembre de 1846, dos años después de la publicación de "Los tres mosqueteros" y "El Conde de Montecristo". Dumas, acompañado de un grupo de amigos y de su hijo del mismo nombre, viajaba a España como invitado a la boda del Duque de Montpensier con la infanta Luisa Fernanda, la hija menor de la reina Isabel II. Durante este viaje escribio sus impresiones a traves de cartas, que fueron publicadas inicialmente en el diario frances La Presse y luego como libro en 1847.Viajo en compañia de su hijo y otros artistas, como cronista de la corte francesa, inscribiendose su aventura como uno de los viajes desatados por la moda del Romanticismo. "De Paris a Cadiz" es un libro desenfadado y alegre, llenos de pequeñas aventuras, de anecdotas jocosas y personajes extraordinarios. El lector observara que alli donde no llega la realidad llega en cambio la fertil imaginacion del autor.

El prolífico escritor que fue Alejandro Dumas cultivó también el género biográfico. Lo que Dumas pretende con estas biografías noveladas es acercarnos a sus protagonistas, y sumergirnos en su época, en sus pasiones, en sus motivaciones, en las circunstancias que dieron lugar a unas vidas dedicadas en cuerpo y alma a la creacion con resultados de una brillantez muy pocas veces alcanzada.
