«La hispanibundia: retrato español de familia» is the historical essay by Mauricio Wiesenthal, published by Acantilado in paperback (320 pages, in Spanish).
Using the «vehementia cordis» that Pliny attributed to the Hispanics as a guiding thread, Wiesenthal covers the Counter-Reformation, the conquest of the New World and the Spanish Armada, and explains «hispanibundia» as an energy associated with the Spanish way of life and its literature. An invitation to discover a centuries-old reality of which we are all heirs.
The work belongs to the El Acantilado collection, where it bears number 371. The first edition dates from 2018.
Work aimed at the general public interested in the history of Spain and reflections on cultural identity.
