The Deceitful Marriage and Other Exemplary Novels
New York. 1963. April 1963. Signet/New American Library. 1st Signet Classic Paperback Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. Newly Translated From The Spanish & With An Foreword By Walter Starkie. 320 pages. paperback. CT157. Cover: James Hill. FROM THE PUBLISHER - Includes - The Deceitful Marriage The Little Gypsy Rinconete and Cortadillo The Man of Glass The Illustrious Kitchen Maid and The Dogs' Colloquy. 'Cervantes was the only author who fused the rougish and the swashbuckling elements of the picaresque novel because his aims as an artist were more universal than were those of his contemporaries and his humor like that of Shakespeare with its infinite tolerance melancholy and love of all classes of humanity glowed with the genius of thoughtful laughter.' ' - Walter Starkie. It was the Exemplary Novels published three years before his death more than his masterpiece Don Quixote that established Cervantes' literary reputation among the intellectuals of his time. These picaresque stories ring with racy idiom and peasant humor and with explicit characterizations that show how well he knew the speech and folkways and psychology of the common people. Among the Exemplary Novels pre - sented here are three of his most famous ones: The Deceitful Marriage a cynical tale of Spanish domestic life merciless in its realism pungent in its humor. The Little Gypsy a love story of a high - spirited girl whose haunting counterpart has reappeared in the works of Goethe and Victor Hugo. and The Dogs' Colloquy judged by many critics to be the greatest short story ever written. inventory #24273 paperback
