Produktbeschreibung
A number of the great classics of Spanish-language literature are brought together in this series of specially adapted titles for young adults. Each title contains text written in a literary but accessible style and a full-color documentary that provides information about the author, the work, and the time period. Set in 15th-century Spain, this dramatic tale follows the star-crossed courtship of the young nobleman Calisto and the beautiful maiden Melibea and the role that Celestina, an aged prostitute and procuress, plays in their relationship. Feeling entranced after a chance encounter with Melibea, Calisto asks Celestina to help arrange another meeting. Celestina then promptly takes control of the young couple's affair--until her guidance ultimately leads to tragedy. At times a comic character and at others a self-assertive promoter of women's sexual license, Celestina is a surprisingly modern woman who will be relished by a new generation of readers. Un número de los grandes clásicos de la literatura en castellano están reunidos en esta serie de títulos especialmente adaptados para los adolescentes. Cada título contiene un texto literario pero accesible y un documental a todo color con información sobre el autor, la obra y la época. Ambientada en España durante el siglo XV, esta historia dramática sigue el cortejo funesto del joven noble Calisto y la doncella bella Melibea y el papel que Celestina, una prostituta y alcahueta vieja, desempeña en su relación. Encantado después de un encuentro fortuito con Melibea, Calisto le pide a Celestina que le ayude concertar otra cita. Celestina en seguida toma control de la relación de la pareja joven--hasta que sus consejos terminan en la tragedia. A veces un personaje cómico y a veces una promovedora agresiva de la libertad sexual femenina, Celestina es una mujer sorprendentemente moderna que cautivará a una generación nueva de lectores.
