«El embrujo de amar» is Fanny Rubio's essay on love, published by Temas de hoy in paperback (230 pages, in Spanish).
Starting from a night of boleros in old Madrid, Fanny Rubio reflects on love and its disappointments. She explores myths like Oedipus and archetypes like Don Juan, Calisto and Melibea, or the guests of Plato's Symposium, to ask what we seek in the beloved, why disenchantment comes, and how much of those archetypes remains alive in us.
The subtitle of the work is «Amantes, pasiones y desencantos». It belongs to the Essay collection from Temas de hoy and includes a bibliography.
For readers interested in the essay, the history of ideas, and reflection on love.
Francisca Rubio Gámez, better known by the pseudonym Fanny Rubio, is a Spanish professor, researcher, and writer, an expert in contemporary Spanish poetry.
