Synopsis "La Medusa de Mármol. Escritos Sobre lo Grotesco (in Spanish)"

La presente edici¢n recoge los textos que Ruskin dedic¢ al tema de logrotesco. Lo grotesco se percibe en el estilo y lenguaje de las obrasart¡sticas, pero no es solo una cuesti¢n de estilo y lenguaje. Laprofunda novedad de Ruskin surge en el an lisis de sus or¡genes: logrotesco es una manifestaci¢n de la naturaleza humana y, en cuantotal, no puede ser despreciado ni relegado, tal como hab¡a hecho laliteratura art¡stica tradicional.

La estrecha relaci¢n entreRuskin y Dante, la admiraci¢n del escritor ingls por el poeta, nos ha sugerido el t¡tulo de la presente edici¢n, La Medusa de m rmol, queresponde al canto noveno del Inferno en la Comedia dantesca.

John Ruskin (London, February 8, 1819 - Coniston, January 20, 1900) was an influential writer, art critic, and British social reformer of the 19th century. His work covers a wide range of subjects, including art, architecture, and political economy.

Among his most notable works are "Modern Painters" (1843-1860), a defense of contemporary landscape painting; "The Seven Lamps of Architecture" (1849), where he establishes fundamental principles of architecture; and "The Stones of Venice" (1851-1853), a deep analysis of Venetian architecture. Additionally, "Sesame and Lilies" (1865) and "The Bible of Amiens" (1880-1885) reflect his interest in literature and history.
