«Cartas marruecas / Noches lúgubres» is the critical edition of the two works by José Cadalso, published by Crítica in 2008 (486 pages, in Spanish).
Cartas marruecas uses the epistolary genre to offer a critical view of Spain: history, institutions and customs are examined from a moral and enlightened perspective. Noches lúgubres, by contrast, delves into despair and reworks the sepulchral genre in a Spanish key, anticipating Romanticism.
Edition by Emilio Martínez Mata, with a study of the surviving manuscripts and printed editions and annotations on the historical and cultural context. Clásicos y Modernos collection.
Aimed at students of eighteenth-century Spanish literature and readers interested in the beginnings of Romanticism.
Colonel of the Royal Spanish Army, author, poet, playwright and essayist
