Juan Valera y Alcala-Galiano (1824-1905), was a Spanish realist
author, writer and political figure, best known for Pepita Jimenez
which depicts a young seminarian's gradual of the empty vanity of
his vocation, culminating in a shattering denouement. Armando
Palacio Valdes (1853-1938) was a Spanish novelist and critic. His
Marta y Maria portrays of the struggle between religious vocation
and earthly passion, somewhat in the manner of Valera.
En Nuevas cartas americanas aparece el punto de vista peninsular
ante los movimientos de Independencia de latinoamrica y las
reivindicaciones histricas del Nuevo Mundo, en especfico de Cuba.
Se trata de una visin muy distinta a la que muestra la historia
oficial de Amrica, con una visin descarnada de los orgenes tnicos
de Latinoamrica, aunque esgrime argumentos econmicos y polticos que
merecen atencin. In 'New American Letters," we find the attitudes
of the Iberian peninsular world in the face of the Latin American
independence movements, and the historical proclamations of the New
World, specifically pertaining to Cuba. The book relays a vision
very distinct on the surface from the official history of the
Americas, with a spare interpretation of the ethnic origins of the
Latin American culture, though there are also economic and
political assertions that deserve attention.
En la Andalucia del siglo XIX, la joven Pepita Jimenez -obligada
por su tia Salvaora a casarse con el usurero Gumersindo- enviuda
durante su banquete de bodas. Tras el funeral de su marido, Pepita
es pretendida por un conde y por el hacendado Pedro, padre del
seminarista Luis. Sin embargo, la joven se siente atraida por Luis,
quien vuelve a su pueblo natal para pasar una vacaciones antes de
ordenarse sacerdote y este se contiene por respeto a su padre.
