Interpretation Conducive To Books Niebla
Esta obra de Miguel de Unamuno es uno de los ejemplos clásicos más eminentes de la novela moderna. La ficción deja aquí de ser un puro vehículo narrativo, transmisor de historias, para convertirse en un universo textual de fecundas sugerencias. El título, Niebla, expresa con claridad el propósito novelesco de desdibujar lo visible y materializar, en cambio, lo impalpable. En este ambiente vemos moverse a un hombre esencialmente frustrado, Augusto Pérez, sobre cuya muerte nos vemos obligados a pronunciarnos. Germán Gullón, reconocido como uno de los primeros especialistas en novela contemporánea, facilita en esta edición una pauta de lectura que conduce a una riqueza de comprensión insospechada de la novela en sí y de cuanto supone, como cima, en el proceso de la narrativa española.Rating Of Books Niebla

(Castellano abajo)This text is not really touched outside of Spanish-speaking countries (or even outside of Spain), and its a real shame because what you get here is a savage attack on the tyranny of authorship a good half-century before Barthes and his contemporaries wrote anything on the subject. I would argue that its done better than Barthes as well, or Foucault, or whoever you might cite on the question, because Niebla literally concerns itself with the authorial encounter of ones ownIntroduction :....Only readers can shed the necessary light that will enable them to know as they are known Such a delightful blending of thoughts, such a joy for a mind looking to discover unique perspectives! An objects most noble function is to be contemplated. An orange is so beautiful before it is eaten.(...)Surrounded by the fog of my life, I wait your response And what is love anyway? who defined love? Once you define it, it isnt live anymore .... And how can I have fallen in love when,
The story is mostly about the subconscious, a little bit strange in the end, but it's interesting; it's about different kinds of love, each one fulfills some necessities of the main character and he has to find out what he really wants.
I got my paws on an English translation of NIEBLA by Miguel de Unamuno. It was written over 100 years ago & it reeks of postmodern metafiction, you know, the type in which a character finds himself literally becoming invented or destroyed by his god, our author. It is an important feat, a relevant historical artifact in how the writer tries to break ties with classic conventions of the novel. "We exist, we exist!" is the cry of these malcontents, these fictional persons. But read now, in the
In his introduction to this English edition of Miguel de Unamunos Niebla (Mist or, as in Elena Barcias new translation Fog), Alberto Manguel makes a bold claim for the novel. Critics, he tells us, have almost unanimously placed it amongst the great Modernist texts, next to Virginia Woolfs The Waves and Pirandellos Sei personaggi in cerca d'autore. Except that Unamunos novel precedes them both, having been published in 1914 and commenced years before. Now I have a confession to make. Although a
While Unamunos influence on the Spanish modernist literature is evident, I failed to pay him the respect he may have deserved.Some of the identity games that may have been new and interesting thoughts to the then Spanish audience are today utterly uninteresting. Did my duty, had a few smiles along the road but easily forgot the characters and the idea.
For fans of early 20th century European modernism, this novel provides the reader a natural step from positivism to vanguardism. Unamuno, clearly well versed in the works of Pirandello and Dario, creates a space where he himself becomes a character and the reader is left to guess who is in charge of the penning of the novel. Unlike any other novel I have read, Unamuno is cognizant of his writing prowess; he labels his work 'nivola' because the term novel is too unilateral. Infused with Hegelian
