The Spanish romantic short story is the great unknown of one of the
most intriguing Spanish literary trends. Though being the
forerunner to the brilliant Spanish short story period (Becquer,
Valera, Alarcon, etc.), it has stood widely ignored. Evil and
benevolent kings, disgraced lovers, noble heroes and damned
villains, Jews, sorcerers, loyal servants, ghosts, magnanimous and
malevolent Moors, rude countrymen and noble peasants, noble middle
aged knights that fall for languid damsels or for graceful
passionate young women of dark skin and darker eyes, and knights
that act as utmost Spanish chivalry examples. Medieval castles,
dark woods, villages of the Mancha, Galicia, Andalousie and Aragon.
The Prado with its chariots and strollers parade. All the above can
be found in the Spanish romantic short stories, of which these
thirteen are a great sample of this most multiform and varied trend
of the first half of the nineteenth Century. Throughout this
anthology prof. Borja Rodriguez Gutierrez answers some basic
questions: what constitutes a short story? What does romantic mean?
When and how was the Spanish romanticism movement? Where there
romantic short stories written in Spain? The analysis of these
questions lead to the unearthing of thousands of stories waiting in
the remote and less consulted rows of revision libraries.
