«Figuras de la Pasión del Señor» is the novel by Gabriel Miró, published by Libertarias Prodhufi in paperback (336 pages, in Spanish).
The narrative delves into Christ's inner life during the Passion and gives prominence to the Levantine landscape: fields, mountains and paths are described with an impressionistic prose full of sensations of light, color, aroma and sound. The characters come from the Gospel, and the tone combines religious fervor with the aesthetics of the Generation of '98.
This edition, prepared by Juan Luis Suárez Granda, belongs to the Clásicos Libertarias collection (no. 8) and was published in September 1998.
For readers of Spanish literature interested in lyrical prose, modernism and recreations of the Gospels.
Gabriel Miró Ferrer, known as Gabriel Miró, was a Spanish modernist writer. In 1900 he finished his studies in law at the University of Granada and the University of Valencia. He focused mainly on writing novels, but also collaborated to a large number of newspapers such as: El Heraldo, Los Lunes de El Imparcial, ABC and El Sol. He was among the contributors of the Madrid-based avant-garde magazine Prometeo between 1908 and 1912. The rich and poetic language, the philosophical and theological ideas, and the subtle irony are some of the main characteristics of his works. Gabriel Miró preferred to focus on the intimate world of his characters and its development, in the inner relations between everything in their surrounding and the way they evolve in time.
