Product Description

Product Description

"equiem per un campesino espanol" was first published under the title Mosen Millan in Coleccion Aquelarre,Mexico, 1953. The present text follows the first Spanish edition published by Destino, Barcelona, 1974, which bears a few minor variants, mainly in paragraph structure. It has been reprinted a number of times and translated into many languages and is one of the most widely read Spanish texts in the 20th century. This edition is aimed primarily at sixth-formers and university undergraduates and the introduction and notes have been compiled in the light of recent socio-politial topic-based syllabuses and communication studies courses. The inclusion in the introduction of a substantial section on the now out-of-print "Contraataque" (1937), the wartime narrative which contains the germ of the post-war novel, is intended to provide the student with a context for the study of the process in Sender's writing inspired by the Civil War - from explicit militant propaganda penned in the heat of battle to implicit poetic parable, historical emotion recollected in the comparative tranquillity and distance of exile. It is hoped that such a juxtaposition will illuminate both the content and literary achievement of "Requiem".

5.0 out of 5 stars A great study guide - a student must-have!, 30 Jun 2001
The substantial notes at the beginning of the book give a good historical foundation, which should be read first as it makes the story much easier to understand subsequently. As well as presenting, what is ultimately a classic novel in Spanish literature well, it also offers many guidelines for non-native speakers. It includes endnotes, a vocabulary section, as well as many footnotes. All in all, I would recommend this to anyone studying the novel as part of a degree or A-level course. It has been a godsend for me.

3.0 out of 5 stars A real help with Spanish study, 4 Dec 2001
By A Customer
This book was really good in helping me extend my vocabulary and understanding of spanish grammar. Although the storyline is a little tedious, and seemingly lengthly at times, it offers a good insight into how an individual small settlement was affected by the Spanish civil war.
