Rip Van Winkle es un cuento del escritor estadounidense Washington Irving, publicado en 1819 como parte de la colección The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent. La historia está ambientada en un pueblo al pie de las montañas Catskill en Nueva York, donde Rip Van Winkle, un holandés-estadounidense, se adentra en las montañas para escapar de los regaños de su esposa. Allí, se encuentra con un grupo de hombres extraños que juegan a los bolos y beben licor. Rip se une a ellos y se queda dormido, despertando veinte años después para encontrar un mundo cambiado y a su esposa fallecida.
Washington Irving was an American short-story writer, essayist, biographer, historian, and diplomat of the early 19th century. He wrote the short stories "Rip Van Winkle" (1819) and "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" (1820), both of which appear in his collection The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent. His historical works include biographies of Oliver Goldsmith, Muhammad, and George Washington, as well as several histories of 15th-century Spain that deal with subjects such as the Alhambra, Christopher Columbus, and the Moors. Irving served as the American ambassador to Spain in the 1840s.
