Pr�sentation de l'�diteur :

First English translation of these important works by two of Spain’s most gifted writers and intellectuals.

Following the defeat of the Second Spanish Republic, Mar�a Zambrano (1904–1991) and Rosa Chacel (1898–1994), two of Spain’s most gifted intellectuals and writers, wrote compelling meditations on the meaning of confession in life and literature. No�l Valis and Carol Maier provide the first complete English-language translations of these essays. Zambrano and Chacel were friends, if not always amicably so; supporters of the Republic; and exiles. Both disciples of the philosopher Ortega y Gasset, they were nevertheless able to establish their own creative independence in their writing. Not only do the essays address national issues centered on Spanish literature, culture, and history, they also offer a unique philosophical-spiritual and literary approach to confession within the areas of philosophy, literature, religion, autobiography, women’s and gender studies, and cultural studies. The translators’ introduction, afterword, and meticulous annotations supplement the texts.
