«Artículos» is a selection of journalistic articles by Mariano José de Larra, published by Anaya in the Biblioteca Didáctica Anaya collection in paperback (192 pages, in Spanish).
Larra, a key figure of Spanish Romanticism, used journalism as a weapon of social criticism. This selection brings together his famous costumbrista articles, in which he denounces with irony the vices of Spanish society of his time, such as bureaucratic routine, immobility or the fatuousness of the «castellano viejo». Texts like «El castellano viejo», «Vuelva usted mañana» or «El día de difuntos de 1836» show his direct style and sharp satire.
The edition belongs to the Biblioteca Didáctica Anaya collection.
Intended for students and readers approaching Larra for the first time, with an annotated edition within a didactic collection.
Mariano José de Larra y Sánchez de Castro was a Spanish romantic writer and journalist best known for his numerous essays and his infamous suicide. His works were often satirical and critical of the 19th-century Spanish society, and focused on both the politics and customs of his time.
