        The world of El Cid

        Chronicles of the Spanish Reconquest

        by Rosemary Horrox, Simon Maclean

        Makes available, for the first time in English translation, four of the principal narrative sources for the history of the Spanish kingdom of León-Castile during the eleventh and twelfth centuries. Three chronicles focus primarily upon the activities of the kings of León-Castile as leaders of the Reconquest of Spain from the forces of Islam, and especially upon Fernando I (1037-65), his son Alfonso VI (1065-1109) and the latter's grandson Alfonso VII (1126-57). The fourth chronicle is a biography of the hero Rodrigo Díaz, better remembered as El Cid, and is the main source of information about his extraordinary career as a mercenary soldier who fought for Christian and Muslim alike. Covers the fasincating interaction of the Muslim and Christian worlds, each at the height of their power. Each text is prefaced by its own introduction and accompanied by explanatory notes. ;

        Bertolt Brechts »Terzinen über die Liebe«

        by Bertolt Brecht, Jan Knopf

        Der vorliegende Band dokumentiert, daß Kunst vermag, »die Schönheit in ihrer reitzenden Gestalt«, wie Johann Jacob Bodmer 1741 zu Dantes Francesca-Darstellung formulierte, so abzuschildern, »als ob der Vorwurf derselben in der nackenden Natur vor Sinnen geleget wäre«. Die Schönheit von Brechts Versen, ihre nachhaltige Wirkung und der Vergleich mit lyrischen Bearbeitungen desselben Stoffs aus sechs Jahrhunderten beweisen: die Terzinen über die Liebe gehören ins Pantheon der Weltliteratur.

        Stille

        Erzählung

        by Antonio Benedetto, Curt Meyer-Clason

        Die 1964 in Buenos Aires erschienene Erzählung El silenciero von Antonio Di Benedetto handelt von einem Mann, der besessen ist von dem Verlangen nach Stille und der schließlich, als Brandstifter verdächtigt, im Gefängnis landet. Überraschend an dieser Prosa ist der völlige Verzicht auf Episoden, die Reduktion der Schilderung auf Aussagesätze, deren hervorstehendes Merkmal der Lakonismus ist. »Vor Jahren, als in Frankreich noch kein Mensch vom nouveau roman sprach, nahm Antonio Di Benedetto mit seinen ersten Erzählungen das Programm dieser neuen Literatur vorweg.« Alfonso Sola Gonzáles
