About this ebook

Mai multe variante brute ale urmatoarelor povestiri si eseuri au fost scrise in timpul sederii in Alhambra; altele au fost adaugate ulterior, fiind bazate pe notitele si observatiile facute acolo.


Am avut grija sa pastrez culoarea locala si veridicitatea; astfel incat intrega carte are intentia de a prezenta o imagine credibila si graitoare a unui microcosmos, a unei mici lumi unice in care am fost aruncat din fericire; si despre care lumea exterioara are o idee total gresita. Stradania mea a fost sa descriu in amanunt caracterul sau pe jumatate spaniol si pe jumatate oriental; imbinarea intre eroic, poetic si grotesc; sa reinvii urmele de gratie si frumusete care palesc cu repeziciune de pe zidurile sale; sa marchez traditiile regale si cavaleresti ale celor care odata ii amenintau regatul; precum si sa pastrez o amintire a legendelor superstitioase si capricioase ale rasei pestrite care bantuie acum prin ruinele acestei lumi.

Washington Irving

Washington Irving Was born in New York City in 1783. He lived in the United States, England, and Spain (where he served as an American diplomatic attache). A prolific author, Irving wrote The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent., Diedrich Knickerbocker's History of New York, The Alhambra, and biographies of George Washington and Christopher Columbus, among other works. He is best remembered, however, for his two most famous stories, "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" and "Rip Van Winkle."
