La Honra de los Hombres: Comedia en Dos Actos (Spanish Edition)

History

Wentworth Press

One of Spain's most important dramatists of the twentieth century and winner of the Nobel Prize for literature in 1922, Jacinto Benavente y Martínez wrote more than 150 plays in his lifetime. The best known of these is Los intereses creados — a social satire in the guise of farce. Premiering in late 1907, the work was instantly acclaimed throughout Europe. Similar in structure to a puppet drama, the play incorporates such traditional characters from the commedia dell'arte as the Doctor, the Captain, Harlequin, Columbine, Pantaloon, and Punchinello — with Crispin, a crafty and deceitful servant, manipulating them with invisible strings in the fashion of a spectacular puppet master. A sparkling satire on selfishness and greed in the modern world, the drama is reprinted here in a dual-language edition that not only allows students of Spanish to read a brilliant playwright's masterpiece in the original, but also provides readers with an excellent English translation of a theatrical classic.

BiblioLife

As outspoken in his day as Richard Dawkins or Christopher Hitchens are today, American freethinker and author ROBERT GREEN INGERSOLL (1833-1899) was a notorious radical whose uncompromising views on religion and slavery (they were bad, in his opinion), women's suffrage (a good idea, he believed), and other contentious matters of his era made him a wildly popular orator and critic of 19th-century American culture and public life. As a speaker dedicated to expanding intellectual horizons and celebrating the value of skepticism, Ingersoll spoke frequently on such topics as atheism, freedom from the pressures of conformity, and the lives of philosophers who espoused such concepts. This collection of his most famous speeches includes the lectures: [ "The Gods" (1872) [ "Humboldt" (1869) [ "Thomas Paine" (1870) [ "Individuality" (1873) [ "Heretics and Heresies" (1874)
