«El poder educativo de los clásicos» is the popular guide by Luis Javier de la Vega, published by Ciudadela Libros in paperback (352 pages, in Spanish).
The work gathers in short chapters the wisdom accumulated by literature and thought: it presents more than seventy authors —philosophers, playwrights, poets and novelists— such as Homer, Aristotle, Cervantes, Shakespeare, Molière and Erasmus, and explains why their texts still speak to us about human passions and dilemmas.
First edition published on 1 May 2009 in the «Vida práctica» collection. The author, born in Madrid in 1941, devoted his career to teaching as a History professor.
Recommended for young people and adults aged 14 and over who want a first approach to the great authors and the ideas that have shaped history.
