La Mirada Quieta (de Pérez Galdós) / The Quiet Gaze (of Pérez Galdós) [Spanish]

« Fue un gran escritor? Lo fue. En el siglo XIX y comienzos del XX, no hay ninguno de sus compatriotas que tenga semejante dedicaci?n, inventiva, empe?o y la soltura literaria de P?rez Gald?s .

P?rez Gald?s es un autor esencial en la literatura espa?ola contempor?nea. En este ensayo, a partir del an?lisis de sus novelas, de sus obras teatrales y de los Episodios nacionales, Mario Vargas Llosa crea un perfil completo, personal y sugerente del escritor espa?ol. Nadie como el Nobel peruano es capaz de leer de manera tan sagaz y con tanta libertad y pasi?n la obra de un creador.

Como el propio autor afirma en la introducci?n a La mirada quieta, «Gald?s hizo lo que Balzac, Zola y Dickens hicieron en sus respectivas naciones: contar la historia y la realidad social de su pa?s. Con sus Episodios estuvo en la l?nea de aqu?llos, convirtiendo en materia literaria el pasado vivido, poniendo al alcance del gran p?blico una versi?n quieta pero amena, bien escrita, con personajes vivos y documentaci?n solvente, de un siglo decisivo en la historia espa?ola .

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"Was he a great writer? Yes, he was. In the nineteenth century and early twentieth, there is none of his fellow countrymen who had such dedication, ingenuity, commitment, and literary fluency as P?rez Gald?s."

P?rez Gald?s is an essential author in contemporary Spanish literature. In this essay, written after analyzing his novels, plays, and National Episodes, Mario Vargas Llosa creates a comprehensive, personal, and evocative profile of the Spanish writer. No one but the Peruvian Nobel Prize winner is capable of reading a creator's work so astutely, so freely, and so passionately.

As the author states in the introduction to The Quiet Gaze, "Gald?s did as Balzac, Zola, and Dickens did in their respective nations, tell the history and social reality of his country. With his Episodes, he was the same as them, turning that vivid past into literary matter, making available to the public a quiet, yet pleasant and well written version, with lively characters and reliable documentation, of a decisive century in Spanish history."
