About this ebook

En septiembre de 1889, Benito Pérez Galdós tomó un tren en Newscastle para realizar un viaje que planeaba desde hacía años: visitar la casa de Shakespeare en Stratford-on-Avon. La aventura de aquella peregrinación en busca de las huellas de uno de los grandes genios de la literatura universal la incluyó en 1906 en el libro Memoranda. Este breviario recupera también, a manera de prólogo, el capítulo de sus memorias dedicado a Inglaterra, donde el gran narrador español refleja el especial interés que siempre sintió por la literatura y la organización política de Gran Bretaña, lo que pone que manfiesto su modernidad y curiosidad intelectual, a la vanguardia de la mayoría de los escritores europeos de su época.

Benito Perez Galdos

Benito Pérez Galdós (1843-1920) was a Spanish novelist. Born in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, he was the youngest of ten sons born to Lieutenant Colonel Don Sebastián Pérez and Doña Dolores Galdós. Educated at San Agustin school, he travelled to Madrid to study Law but failed to complete his studies. In 1865, Pérez Galdós began publishing articles on politics and the arts in La Nación. His literary career began in earnest with his 1868 Spanish translation of Charles Dickens’ Pickwick Papers. Inspired by the leading realist writers of his time, especially Balzac, Pérez Galdós published his first novel, La Fontana de Oro (1870). Over the next several decades, he would write dozens of literary works, totaling 31 fictional novels, 46 historical novels known as the National Episodes, 23 plays, and 20 volumes of shorter fiction and journalism. Nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature five times without winning, Pérez Galdós is considered the preeminent author of nineteenth century Spain and the nation’s second greatest novelist after Miguel de Cervantes. Doña Perfecta (1876), one of his finest works, has been adapted for film and television several times.
