Victima de aparentes intrigas, perdidas inexplicables de manuscritos sucesivos, incautada por la policia y retenida durante anos, Amor de don Perlimplin es, sin embargo, una autentica joya de las Letras Hispanicas. La edicion incluye la version facsimil y la transcripcion literal.

Abrumado por el peso de Don Quijote de la Mancha, Cervantes intenta hacer de este libro su obra maestra. El autor decide, casi al final de su vida, llevar a su fin el viaje que hacen a Roma sus dos enamorados protagonistas, obligados por las circunstancias a presentarse como hermanos. Este viaje sirve de marco a otras historias y a otros personajes cuyas acciones sirven, en mas de un sentido, de ensenanza.

La publicacion en 1954 de Poemas y antipoemas revoluciono la poesia. La voz natural del cantor lirico se transformo en la de un antilirico adversario de si mismo. El discurso esta constituido por saltos, exabruptos y reflexiones imprevistas. Los antipoemas se nutren del lenguaje poetico tradicional ironizandolo.

La voz poetica de Rosalia de Castro, gallega y castellana, alumbro todo el siglo XIX. Los Cantares gallegos, en 1863, inauguran la literatura moderna en esta lengua. En las orillas del Sar (1884), aparecido cerca del termino de la vida de la autora, reune un conjunto de poemas en castellano que constituyen un autentico tratado de desolacion. Dificil sera encontrar en la literatura de su tiempo versos mas desazonantes ni que alcancen de forma mas directa el corazon del lector.

In 1988 Patrick Modiano stumbled across an ad between the stock market report and a story of a school visit to Marechal Petain in the personal columns of Paris Soir from December 31, 1941: "We are looking for a young girl, Dora Bruder, 15 years old, five feet tall, round face, gray-brown eyes, gray sportscoat, burgundy pullover, navy blue hat and skirt, brown athletic shoes. Send all information to Mr. and Mrs. Bruder, 41, Boulevard Ornano, Paris."
Placed by the parents of a 15-year-old Jewish girl who had run away from her convent school just before New Year's Eve, this ad set Modiano on a quest to find out everything he could about Dora Bruder and why she ran away from the Catholic boarding school that had been hiding her. He found only one other official mention of her name: on a list of Jews deported from Paris to Auschwitz in September 1942.
With no knowledge of Dora Bruder aside from these two records of disappearances, Modiano continued to dig for fragments from Dora's past. What little he found in official records or through remaining family members, Modiano transforms into a meditation on the immense losses of the period--lost people, lost stories, and lost history. As he tries to find connections to Dora, Modiano delivers a moving account of the ten-year investigation that took him back to the sights and sounds of Paris under the Occupation and the paranoia of the Petain regime. In his efforts to exhume her from the past, Modiano realizes that he must come to terms with the specters of his own troubled adolescence. The result is a montage of creative and historical material that unfolds as a moving rumination on loss.

Presented via the natural method by Hans orberg, "Ars Amatoria" ("The Art of Love") allows students to read lightly altered Latin texts. The text is a poem in three books by Ovid. The first two books consist of instructions to men on the wooing of women of easy virtue; the third, of instructions to woman on seduction of men. The work is full of humor and charm, and contains interesting glimpses of Roman life and manners--the circus, the theatre, the banquet. It was perhaps partly on account of its immorality that Augustus banished the poet to Tomi by the Black Sea. These poems can be read by students who have completed the first five chapters of orberg's second-year text "Roma Aeterna." ("Lingua Latina Pars II"), also available from Focus.
