Leopoldo Alas (Clarín)


Book Description

Novelist-critic Leopoldo Alas's reputation suffered neglect and silent reproval during much of the twentieth century, especially under the Franco regime, but his reputation has now achieved classic status in Spain. Clearly related to this is the great increase in the number of translations - Julian Barnes called La Regenta 'the foreign classic tardily discovered'. This bibliography picks up where the first one left off in 1984. It is divided into primary material and secondary material. Primary material includes: Anthologies and Selections; Criticism; Novels; Short Story Collections; Plays; Correspondence; Prologues; Reprints; Translations; and Miscellaneous, with two new categories: autograph manuscripts and iconography.

Leopoldo Alas [Clarín]


Book Description

Novelist-critic Leopoldo Alas's reputation suffered neglect and silent reproval during much of the twentieth century, especially under the Franco regime. It is now at an all-time high. The author of this bibliography recalls, in 1978, searching over an hour for Alas's gravesite and finally running into a tiny, bent old woman cleaning headstones.




Relatos breves


Book Description

Leopoldo Alas, Clarín, es una de las figuras intelectualmente brillantes y atractivas del siglo XIX español. Domina, de forma absoluta, el panorama de la crítica literaria en la segunda mitad del siglo. (...)Los relatos breves de Clarín son muestra evidente de un dualismo que aparece fijado en los dos sentimientos contrapuestos por Leopoldo Alas a través de sus relatos: vitalismo y ternura frente a intelectualismo seco y racionalización excesiva.
