More Description
A number of the great classics of Spanish-language literature are brought together in this series of specially adapted titles for young adults. Each title contains text written in a literary but accessible style and a full-color documentary that provides information about the author, the work, and the time period. Much like modern sketch comedy and stand-up routines, the entremeses of 16th- and 17th-century Spanish theater--short farces performed between acts of longer dramatic works--poked fun at contemporary culture even as they made serious critiques of it. This collection gathers several pieces by Miguel de Cervantes, one of the primary proponents of the form, and includes a number of lexical and interpretive notes directed at nonexpert readers that help contribute to their enjoyment of the material.
Un n#65533;mero de los grandes cl#65533;sicos de la literatura en castellano est#65533;n reunidos en esta serie de t#65533;tulos especialmente adaptados para los adolescentes. Cada t#65533;tulo contiene un texto literario pero accesible y un documental a todo color con informaci#65533;n sobre el autor, la obra y la #65533;poca. Tal como el humor sketch o los mon#65533;logos modernos, los entremeses del teatro espa#65533;ol de los siglos XVI y XVII--cortas farsas que se presentaban entre los actos de obras dram#65533;ticas m#65533;s largas--se burlaban de la cultura contempor#65533;nea a la misma vez que hac#65533;an cr#65533;ticas serias y v#65533;lidas contra ella. Esta colecci#65533;n re#65533;ne algunas de las obras de Miguel de Cervantes--uno de los principales exponentes del estilo--e incluye notas de l#65533;xico e interpretaci#65533;n dirigidas a lectores no expertos que ayudan a contribuir a su placer del material.
