Om författaren

Mateo Aleman spent much of his life in a kind of picaresque existence, going from the universities of Salamanca and Alcala, in Spain, to small government jobs to debtor's prison. It was perhaps in a Seville jail that he wrote the First Part of the Life of the Picaro Guzman de Alfarache, published visa mer in Madrid in 1599; the second part, written by an imitator, was published in Lisbon in 1604. Using a lower-class hero, his service to several masters, and portraits of diverse classes and characters, Aleman developed the picaresque genre by taking his character, Guzman, through adulthood, when he becomes a gambler, thief, and beggar. Thus Guzman contributes to the corruption of society rather than merely being its victim, as is Lazarillo. Guzman draws a bitter moral lesson from his experiences: Life is cruel, hunger is the rule, and honor cannot be preserved. (Bowker Author Biography) visa färre

Publicada en dos partes, en Madrid la primera, en 1599, y en Lisboa, en 1640, es esta obra, con el Quijote, la máxima expresión de la novela hispánica. Picaresca, ejemplar, plena de reflexiones sobre el honor, la moral , la riqueza. Un clásico imprescindible.

Cervantes, stung, perchance, by the relish with which his Reading Public had received the fooleries of the man, more to their palates than the generosities of the master, in the sequel let his pen run riot, lost the harmony and the balance, and sacrificed a great idea to the taste of his contemporaries. We know that in the present day the Knight has fewer admirers than the Squire. Anticipating, what did actually happen to him -- as afterwards it did to his scarce inferior follower, the Author of "Guzman de Alfarache"-that some less knowing hand would prevent him by a spurious Second Part: and judging, that it would be easier for his competitor to out -- bid him in the comicalities, than in the romance, of his work, he abandoned his Knight, and has fairly set up the Squire for his Hero. --Elia, in "Barrenness of the Imaginative Faculty in the Productions of Modern Art."… (mer)
