In Dialogue with Valera
Author: Thomas R. Franz
Publisher: Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers
ISBN:
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
Juan Valera (1824-1905) was Spain's only realist with a lifelong insistence that narrative privilege invention over testimony. Throughout Valera's lengthy career, his novels engaged in a running esthetic debate with those of his chief rivals, Galdós and Alas. This debate, chronicled in the present work, led to many compromises and ultimately produced, in the twentieth-century fiction of Valle-Inclán and Unamuno, a novelistic form, also detailed here, that exhibited clear debts to Valera's catalytic influence.

The Illusions of Doctor Faustino
Author: Juan Valera
Publisher: CUA Press
ISBN: 0813215382
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
"Don Faustino Lopez de Mendoza, scion of an illustrious but impoverished family of the highest nobility, believes himself destined for great accomplishments in the literary world, sees himself as a poet of the first rank, and immerses himself in grand, if not grandiose, illusions. While living in a provincial Andalusian town and dreaming of triumphing in Madrid's artistic circles, Faustino embarks on a discovery of love with three women. How he extricates himself from each relationship and meets his sad end constitutes the denouement of this searching novel that depicts the deleterious effects of the Romantic malaise that swept through western Europe in the early part of the nineteenth century."--BOOK JACKET.
