Each volume in this series provides a foundation for the reading and understanding of various literary genres in their cultural contexts - all in Spanish.
Selections of poetry, short stories, essays, novels and plays by 50 literary figures of Spain from the Middle Ages to today are assembled here, including Gustavo Adolfo Becquer, Luis de Argote y Gongora, Rafael Alberti, Emilia Pardo Bazan, Santa Teresa de Jesus, and Rosalia de Castro.
This versatile three-volume set is specifically designed to introduce students of Spanish to the literature of Spain and Latin America. Written in clear, expository Spanish, this is a comprehensive program presenting practical introduction to the reading and analysis of Spanish literary texts and features separate anthologies of representative Spanish and Spanish American writers. Not only will students acquire the necessary skills, techniques, and tools for the cultural reading and analysis of various literary genres, but they will also study the concise cultural history of the literatures of Spain and Spanish America from their origins to the present day. These volumes can be used alone or in combination with another in the set.
