Anejo 3 (2020): Carlos Ginés Orta, Grotesque literature in Europe (16th-20th centuries)

The grotesque Literature in Europe (XVI-XX Centuries) is a study on the aesthetics of grotesque in literature. This book helps answer the question: what exactly is that thing that we call "grotesque", that fashionable aesthetic that fascinates and dominates all the arts, not only the pictorial, but also the literary, photographic, cinematographic, graphic, etc.? The work focuses on the literary grotesque (and more precisely, in European literature), whose study is relatively recent, but there is also some references to other artistic expressions (painting, cinema, sculpture...). The literary corpus used goes from the sixteenth to the twentieth century, from the Iberian Peninsula to Russia.
