Nabokov, Vladimir

La más alegre de sus novelas según Nabokov mismo. «Este fogoso animal es la más alegre de mis novelas», dijo Nabokov de Rey, Dama, Valet, una sátira en la que un jovencito miope, provinciano, mojigato y desprovisto de sentido del humor irrumpe en el frío paraíso de un matrimonio de nuevos ricos berlineses. La esposa seduce al recién llegado y le convierte en su amante. Poco después le convence para intentar eliminar al marido. Éste es el aparentemente sencillo planteamiento de la más clásica, quizá, de las novelas escritas por Nabokov. Pero, tras esa aparente ortodoxia se oculta una notable complejidad técnica, y, sobre todo, un tratamiento singular presidido por el tono de farsa.Publicada originalmente en Berlín, a finales de los años veinte, y ampliamente reelaborada por Nabokov en el momento de su traducción al inglés, a finales de los sesenta, Rey, Dama, Valet muestra un fuerte influjo del expresionismo alemán, especialmente del cinematográfico, y contiene un auténtico derroche de humor negro.Nabokov vapulea a sus personajes, los convierte en autómatas, se ríe de ellos a diabólicas carcajadas, caricaturizándolos con gruesos trazos que no impiden, sin embargo, que posean una verosimilitud que proporciona sostenida amenidad a toda la novela.

«A arte de escribir consiste en dicir moito con poucas palabras», afirmaba Chéjov, o pai do conto moderno. Un reto para quen crea e unha aventura para quen le. Nestes vinte e dous relatos de «Compostela» achegámonos á cidade dende diversas voces e olladas, mais tamén fuximos dela a arrabaldes de grandes urbes, a vilas pequenas ou a barrios con encanto. Neste paseo literario gozamos de voces consagradas no xénero e doutras que se inician, xeracións diferentes que dialogan nunha mesma lingua na que constrúen historias enraizadas en nós. Cada conto é mostra do gran momento literario do país, estas páxinas son un remuíño de bolboretas mergulladas na mesma luz, a da literatura galega. (Malores Villanueva) A cousa é que a nave foi. E con esta xa van tres... E esta, como di un amigo meu que canta moito e moi ben, «Partiu!». (Pedro Feijoo)

Mintegi, Laura

Hona zein den tragedia shakespearetar eta komedia txe-khovtar baten arteko alde nagusia: Shakespeareren tragedia baten amaieran agertokia gorpuz betea dagoela, pertsonaia hilez, eta beharbada justizia nagusitu da, beharbada. Txekhoven antzezlan baten bukaeran, jende guztia desilusionatua dago, guztiz joa, atsekabetua, adoregabetua, baina bizirik. Eta nik bizitza osoan sinetsi izan dut borroka egin behar genukeela, ez gatazka baten amaiera zoriontsu bat izateko –gatazken amaiera zoriontsuetan ez dut nik sinesten–, soluzio txekhovtar bat izateko baizik. ––––––––––––––––– Der grösste Unterschied zwischen der Shakespear’schen Tragödie und der Tschechow’schen Komödie liegt darin, dass am Ende der Tragödie nach Shakespeare die Bühne bedeckt ist mit Leichen, und vielleicht hat die Gerechtigkeit gesiegt, vielleicht. Am Ende eines Stückes von Tschechow sind alle enttäuscht, erschüttert, untröstlich, gebrochen – aber am Leben. Seit ich denken kann bin ich davon überzeugt, dass es nicht darum geht, für das glückliche Ende von Konflikten zu kämpfen – ich glaube bei Konflikten gibt es kein Happy End – sondern für eine Tschechowsche Lösung. ––––––––––––––––– La principal diferencia entre una tragedia de Shakespeare y una comedia de Chejov es que al finalizar una tragedia de Shakespeare el escenario está cubierto de cadáveres y quizás –solo quizás– se haya impuesto la justicia. Al término de una comedia de Chejov, todo el mundo está decepcionado, afligido, derrotado o desencantado, pero vivo. Y toda mi vida he pensado que deberíamos luchar no por un final feliz del conflicto –nunca he creído en los finales felices de los conflictos–, sino por una solución chejoviana.

Hamlet
Hoy -5% en Libros

Shakespeare, William

Perhaps the single most influential work of English drama, William Shakespeare's Hamlet is a timeless tragedy of the conflicted loyalties, madness, betrayal and terrible revenge. This Penguin Shakespeare edition is edited by T.J.B. Spencer with an introduction by Alan Sinfield. 'To be or not to be - that is the question' Something is rotten in the state of Denmark. When young prince Hamlet is confronted by his father's ghost on the battlements of Castle Elsinore, he is burdened with a terrible task: slay King Claudius, Hamlet's uncle, who the ghost alleges murdered him. Wrestling with his conscience, Hamlet feigns wild madness while plotting a brutal revenge, alienating his mother Queen Gertrude and spurning his lover Ophelia. But the act of insanity takes Hamlet perilously close to the reality, wreaking havoc on guilty and innocent alike. This book contains a general introduction to Shakespeare's life and Elizabethan theatre, a separate introduction to Hamlet, a chronology, suggestions for further reading, an essay by Paul Prescott discussing performance options on both stage and screen, and a commentary. William Shakespeare (1564-1616) was born to John Shakespeare and Mary Arden some time in late April 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon. He wrote about 38 plays (the precise number is uncertain), many of which are regarded as the most exceptional works of drama ever produced, including Romeo and Juliet (1595), Henry V (1599), Hamlet (1601), Othello (1604), King Lear (1606) and Macbeth (1606), as well as a collection of 154 sonnets, which number among the most profound and influential love-poetry in English. If you enjoyed Hamlet, you might like Shakespeare's Macbeth, also available in Penguin Shakespeare. 'It has everything - intrigue, romance, politics, violence, revenge, jealousy, wit. It plays itself out on such a grand scale' Kenneth Branagh.

The dead man followed the track until it rose above the last remaining trees and ceased to be a rough line of beaten earth and scruffy grass, to become a stony ramp hewn out of the cliff face and deeply rutted by the abrasive force of ancient iron-rimmed cart wheels. By now il morto was clearly suffering, but he struggled on, pausing frequently to gasp for breath before tackling another stretch of the scorched rock on which the soles of his feet left bloody footprints.Aurelio Zen’s final case brings him to remote town of Calabria, at the toe of Italy’s boot, on what is supposed to be a routine assignment: the death of a scout for an American film company. But the case is complicated by a group of dangerous strangers who have arrived to uncover another local mystery – buried treasure – and who will stop at nothing to achieve their goal. The case rapidly spirals out of control, and Zen must penetrate the code of silence in the tight-knit community in order to solve the crime.If you enjoyed the Inspector Zen Mystery series you may also like The Last Sherlock Holmes Story, another crime novel by Michael Dibdin.
