Tapa blanda. Condizione: New. Para Calvino, «el cuento fantástico es uno de los productos más característicos de la narrativa del siglo XIX y, para nosotros, uno de los más significativos, pues es el que más nos dice sobre la interioridad del individuo y de la simbología colectiva. Para nuestra sensibilidad de hoy, el elemento sobrenatural en el centro de estas historias aparece siempre cargado de sentido, como la rebelión de lo inconsciente, de lo reprimido, de lo olvidado, de lo alejado de nuestra atención racional. En esto se ve la modernidad de lo fantástico, la razón de su triunfal retorno en nuestra época». El gran escritor italiano ha dividido su antología en dos partes, que ordenan la sucesión cronológica de los relatos en dos clasificaciones estilísticas. La primera, Lo fantástico visionario, reúne a una cuidada nómina de autores -Potocki, Eichendorff, Hoffmann, W. Scott, Balzac, Chasles, Nerval, Hawthorne, Gógol, Gautier, Mérimée y Le Fanu- cuyos cuentos tienen en común, bajo la descripción de un mundo encantado o infernal, una poderosa sugestión visual. La segunda, Lo fantástico cotidiano, compuesta por narraciones más abstractas y mentales, más psicológicas, congrega a escritores tan variados y significativos como Poe, Andersen, Dickens, Turguéniev, Leskov, Villiers de l'Isle-Adam, Maupassant, Vernon Lee, Bierce, Lorrain, Stevenson, H. James, Kipling y H. G. Wells. Esta edición de Cuentos fantásticos del XIX reúne en un solo volumen todos los relatos seleccionados y prologados por Italo calvino.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. 2021 Brill hardcover edition. Light reading wear else very good condition. From the cover: Incompletion is an essential condition of cultural history from the oldest extant works of art, which are partially erased by time, to the most recent ones, which have yet to be finished. The idea of the fragment became particularly important to Romantic art and continued to hold relevance for various strands of modernist and contemporary aesthetics. The fourteen essays in this volume, based on the 2017 Stockholm conference of the International Association for Word and Music Studies (WMA), for the first time address incompletion in a wide range of literary and musical texts, from Baudelaire and Flaubert through Tolstoy and Henry James to Bachmann, Jelinek and Janet Frame, from Nietzsche and Chopin through Russolo and Puccini to Rihm and Kurtág. Two further essays deal with topical general issues in the field of word and music studies.
