Description:

Part of the "Modern Literature in Perspective" series, this text represents a collection of essays by, and about, Benito Perez Galdos, which aim to trace the historical development of criticism on Galdos and examine the ways recent scholars have applied the insights of critical theory to his work.

Synopsis:

Benito Perez Galdos has been described as 'the greatest Spanish novelist since Cervantes.' His work constitutes a major contribution to the nineteenth-century novel, rivalling that of Dickens of Balzac and making him an essential candidate for any course on the fiction of the period. Jo Labanyi's study is supported by a wide-rangting introduction, a section of contemporary comment, headnotes to each piece and helpful appendix material.
