«Picaresca española» is the picaresque anthology by Anonymous, Cervantes and Quevedo, edited by Emilio Pascual, published by Editorial Alfredo Ortells.
The anthology brings together three classics of the Spanish picaresque: «Lazarillo de Tormes», «Rinconete y Cortadillo» and «El Buscón». Their protagonists, marginalised and cunning rogues, survive thanks to their wit while offering an ironic social critique of their era.
Edited, with introduction and notes by Emilio Pascual. 272 pages, in Spanish.
Aimed at young readers and as a first approach to the Spanish classics.
Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra was a Spanish writer widely regarded as the greatest writer in the Spanish language and one of the world's pre-eminent novelists. He is best known for his two-part novel Don Quixote, a work considered to be the first modern novel. Don Quixote has been labelled by many well-known authors as the "best book of all time" and the "best and most central work in world literature".
