Tungkol sa ebook na ito
Considerado como «patriarca de la literatura americana» y «el mejor escritor de habla inglesa de su tiempo», Washington Irving (1783-1859) logró el privilegio de vivir en la Alhambra mientras escribía este libro. En una tertulia que al atardecer reunía en la plaza de los Aljibes, recogió un torrente de recuerdos, historias y leyendas que le iban a servir de base para sus relatos, a la par documentados en la Biblioteca universitaria granadina.
Tal vez contó allí mismo estos Cuentos a una niña que con el tiempo llegaría a ser emperatriz de Francia, pero, ciertamente, con ellos se ha convertido en el guía más famoso y universal de la Alhambra. Porque nadie le ha superado en los cuadros que de todos sus rincones pinta y que sirven de marco vivo a un género nuevo de novela fantástica y literaria.
Tungkol sa may-akda
Washington Irving, one of the first Americans to achieve international recognition as an author, was born in New York City in 1783. His A History of New York, published in 1809 under the name of Diedrich Knickerbocker, was a satirical history of New York that spanned the years from 1609 to 1664. Under another pseudonym, Geoffrey Crayon, he wrote The Sketch-book, which included essays about English folk customs, essays about the American Indian, and the two American stories for which he is most renowned--"The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" and "Rip Van Winkle." Irving served as a member of the U.S. legation in Spain from 1826 to 1829 and as minister to Spain from 1842 to 1846. Following his return to the U.S. in 1846, he began work on a five-volume biography of Washington that was published from 1855-1859. Washington Irving died in 1859 in New York.
