"In this wide-ranging historical survey [the author] shows that it was the Victorian British who gave the tiger its bad name: always trying to kill it, they saw the animal only when it was being threatened, and so described it as a cruel and ravening monster. This attitude,continuing until far into the present [20th] century, reduced tigers to the verge of extinction. Not until the launch of Project Tiger in the early 1970's did the tide begin to turn."

Softcover. Condizione: Sehr gut. 1a.ed. en esta colección. 23x15 cm. Colección «Textos Antiguos Españoles», Vol. I. XVIIIp., 84p., Rústica con solapas. Sprache: Spanisch, ámina facsímil, Muy buen estado. Cubiertas: algo tostadas, leves roces. Interiores sin marcas y en excelentes condiciones. USADO / GEBRAUCHT / USED. El libro de los engaños es la versión española más importante del famoso Libro de Sindibad. Se conserva en un manuscrito único del que ya existen otras ediciones, si bien todas adolecen de presentar una lección adulterada por seguir las correcciones que de distinta mano y fecha posterior contiene el códice. La importancia de esta obra en la evolución de la narrativa española y su interés en cuanto a la ortografía, sintaxis, vocabulario y temática de la literatura medieval castellana, hacían necesaria una edición rigurosamente fiel al texto primitivo. John E. Keller, autor de esta edición, es Profesor de la Facultad de Letras en la Universidad de Carolina del Norte. Desde hace tiempo se dedica al estudio de la literatura y lengua españolas, fruto de cuyos trabajos son las distintas publicaciones que tiene hechas.
