Download or read book Spanish Books in the Europe of the Enlightenment (Paris and London) written by Nicolás Bas Martín and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-02-12 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Spanish Books in the Europe of the Enlightenment (Paris and London) Nicolás Bas examines the image of Spain in eighteenth-century Europe, and in Paris and London in particular. His material has been scoured from an exhaustive interrogation of the records of the book trade. He refers to booksellers’ catalogues, private collections, auctions, and other sources of information in order to reconstruct the country’s cultural image. Rarely have these sources been searched for Spanish books, and never have they been as exhaustively exploited as they are in Bas’ book. Both England and France were conversant with some very negative ideas about Spain. The Black Legend, dating back to the sixteenth century, condemned Spain as repressive and priest-ridden. Bas shows however, that an alternative, more sympathetic, vision ran parallel with these negative views. His bibliographical approach brings to light the Spanish books that were bought, sold and ultimately read. The impression thus obtained is likely to help us understand not only Spain’s past, but also something of its present.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Life of Lazarillo de Tormes is a Spanish novella, published anonymously because of its anticlerical content. L�zaro is a boy of humble origins from Salamanca. After his stepfather is accused of thievery, his mother asks a wily blind beggar to take on Lazarillo (little L�zaro) as his apprentice. L�zaro develops his cunning while serving the blind beggar and several other masters, while also learning to take on his father's practice.Besides its importance in the Spanish literature of the Golden Age, Lazarillo de Tormes is credited with founding a literary genre, the picaresque novel, from the Spanish word p�caro, meaning "rogue" or "rascal." In novels of this type, the adventures of the p�caro expose injustice while amusing the reader. Its influence extends to twentieth century novels, dramas and films featuring the "anti-hero".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lazarillo de Tormes appeared for the first time in 1554, although there are a couple of versions that could well have appeared in 1552 and 1553 respectively. The work is classified as a picaresque novel, and is today one of the great classics of Spanish literature. It narrates the adventures of Lázaro de Tormes, from his childhood to his marriage. It is written and narrated in the first person as a satire and criticism of the society of the time, particularly the Church and the clerics, which is why the Holy Inquisition prohibited its circulation until the 19th century, when a full publication appeared again. . Although its author is unknown, over time the authorship has been attributed to some characters such as Diego Hurtardo de Mendoza and Fray Juan de Ortega, among others.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present selection of Hazlitt's critical essays has been planned to serve two important purposes. In the first place it provides the materials for an estimate of the character and scope of Hazlitt's contributions to criticism and so acquaints students with one of the greatest of English critics. And in the second place, what is perhaps more important, such a selection, embodying a series of appreciations of the great English writers, should prove helpful in the college teaching of literature. There is no great critic who by his readableness and comprehensiveness is as well qualified as Hazlitt to aid in bringing home to students the power and the beauty of the essential things in literature. There is, in him a splendid stimulating energy which has not yet been sufficiently utilized. The contents have been selected and arranged to present a chronological and almost continuous account of English literature from its beginning in the age of Elizabeth down to Hazlitt's own day, the period of the romantic revival. To the more strictly critical essays there have been added a few which reveal Hazlitt's intimate intercourse with books and also with their writers, whether he knew them in the flesh or only through the printed page. Such vivid revelations of personal contact contribute much to further the chief aim of this volume, which is to introduce the reader to a direct and spontaneous view of literature...: Chronology of Hazlitt's Life and Writings Introduction The Age of Elizabeth Spenser Shakspeare The Characters of Shakspeare's Plays Cymbeline Macbeth Iago Hamlet Romeo and Juliet Midsummernight's Dream Falstaff Twelfth Night Milton Pope On the Periodical Essayists The English Novelists Character of Mr. Burke Mr. Wordsworth Mr. Coleridge Mr. Southey Elia Sir Walter Scott Lord Byron On Poetry in General My First Acquaintance With Poets On the Conversation of Authors Of Persons One Would Wish To Have Seen On Reading Old Books

Excerpt: ... ventured to rejoice at my good-fortune, and now my ill-luck has returned." Using all the diligence in his power, for misers as a rule are not wanting in that commodity, he shut the door of my consolation while he boarded up the holes in the chest. Thus I made my lamentation, as an end was made to the work, with many small boards and nails. " Now," said the priest, " the traitor rats will find little in this house, and had better leave us, for there is not a hole left large enough for a mosquito to get in." When he was gone I opened the chest with my key without any hope of profit from doing so. There were the three or four loaves Bsiu-; Y "'It is the rats, ' he declared" which my master thought the rats had not begun upon. Night and day I thought ot some other plan, with the help of my hunger, for they say that it is an aid to invention. It certainly was so with me. One night I was deep in thought, meditating how I might use the contents of the chest again. My master was snoring loudly, so I took an old knife and went to the chest. I used the knife in the way of a gimlet, and as the ancient piece of furniture was without strength or heart, it soon surrendered, and allowed me to make a nice hole. This done I opened the chest, had a good meal, and went back to my straw bed, where I rested and slept. Next day my master saw both the hole and the damage done to his provisions. He began to commend the rats to the devil, what the saying, " What shall we say to this! fLl Never have I known rats in this undid by night-house until now." He may well have spoken the truth, for such creatures do not stay where tliere is nothing to eat. He turned to find nails in the wall, and a small board to cover the hole. Night came and he retired to rest, while I...

This book was released on 2024-04-05 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Life of Lazarillo of Tormes, His Fortunes and Misfortunes as Told by Himself" is a classic picaresque novel from Spain, attributed to an anonymous author. The story is narrated by Lazarillo, a young boy born into poverty who becomes a servant to various masters throughout his life. As Lazarillo recounts his experiences, the reader is taken on a journey through Spanish society, encountering a colorful cast of characters ranging from priests and noblemen to conmen and thieves. Through his cunning and resourcefulness, Lazarillo navigates the challenges of his social position, using his wits to survive and even thrive in a world marked by inequality and injustice. The novel is renowned for its satirical portrayal of Spanish society and its exploration of themes such as poverty, social mobility, and the nature of morality. Through Lazarillo's eyes, the reader gains insight into the harsh realities of life for the lower classes in 16th-century Spain, while also being entertained by his misadventures and clever schemes.
