«La Regenta, II» is the second part of the novel by Leopoldo Alas Clarín, published by Castalia Ediciones in paperback (552 pages, in Spanish).
The second part of La Regenta follows Ana Ozores in her inner struggle: amorous longing and sensitivity clash with a prudish, materialistic society in Restoration Spain. Suffering appears as a life-giving force for imagination and thought. The volume covers chapters XVI to XXX.
Edition, introduction and notes by Gonzalo Sobejano. Second volume of the «La Regenta» series, with six plates, in the Clásicos Castalia collection.
Will appeal to readers of Spanish realist and naturalist fiction and to those seeking an annotated edition of a nineteenth-century classic.
Leopoldo Enrique García-Alas y Ureña, also known as Clarín, was a Spanish realist novelist and journalist born in Zamora. His inflammatory articles, known as paliques (“chitchat”), as well as his advocacy of liberalism and anti-clericalism, made him a formidable and controversial critical voice. He died in Oviedo.
