Synopsis "La Regenta (in Spanish)"

Edición de Gregorio Torres Nebrera, catedrático de Literatura Española en la Universidad de Extremadura.En las páginas de La Regenta se recrea un gran fresco narrativo sobre la sociedad burguesa y urbana, dominada por la nobleza decadente, el clero egoísta y la política caciquil, centrado en la seducción y el adulterio de una dama, Ana Ozores, representativa de aquella sociedad. Influido por la escuela naturalista fundamentada en Zola y Maupassant, pero anclado aún en argumentos románticos, Leopoldo Alas «Clarín» escribió la que ha sido considerada como la mejor novela del siglo XIX español.Esta edición incluye una introducción que contextualiza la obra, un aparato de notas, una cronología y una bibliografía esencial, así como también varias propuestas de discusión y debate en torno a la lectura. Estuvo a su cuidado Gregorio Torres Nebrera, catedrático de literatura española de la Universidad de Extremadura.«Cuanto más nos acercamos al término de nuestra ambición, más distante parece el objeto deseado.»ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONMarried to the retired magistrate of Vetusta, Ana Ozores cares deeply for her much older husband but feels stifled by the monotony of her life in the shabby and conservative provincial town. And when she embarks on a quest for fulfillment through religion and even adultery, a bitter struggle begins between a powerful priest and a would-be Don Juan for the passionate young woman's body and soul. Scandalizing contemporary Spain when it was first published in 1885, with its searing critique of the Church and its frank treatment of sex, La Regenta is a compelling and witty depiction of the complacent and frivolous world of upper-class society.For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.
