Tesoros de la Hispanidad'La vida del novicio Fray Ricardo llegó a espantar al maestro de ellos; tan excesiva era. Entregábase con un ardor insano a la oración, a la penitencia, al recojimiento y, sobre todo, al estudio. No, no era natural aquello; parecía más obra de desesperación diabólica que no de dulce confianza en la gracia de Dios y en los méritos de su Hijo humanado'. Una historia de amor es tal vez uno de los relatos más sencillos de Miguel de Unamuno (España, 1864-1936) y, desprovisto de las originalidades de la nivola, uno de los más convencionales en cuanto a su estructura y al relieve psicológico de sus personajes. El ambicioso Ricardo se debate entre el amor a Dios y el amor por la pensativa Liduvina que, a la sombra de una tragedia familiar, languidece en un hogar de mujeres. Juntos, planean una fuga que tendrá consecuencias insospechadas y los unirá de forma inexorable. En pos del deseo y para escapar de la melancolía, buscarán el sentido de la vida por los senderos de la fe. Publicada en 1911, Una historia de amor es una muestra de la mejor prosa del autor, castiza y cautivadora, que con nitidez cinematográfica retoma los leitmotivs unamunianos del amor familiar, romántico y divino, la tensión entre alma y cuerpo, y el conflicto existencial entre vocación, orgullo y sacrificio. Heir of Søren Kierkegaard and a precursor of continental existentialism, Miguel de Unamuno (Spain, 1864-1936) is one of the main European philosophers of the 20th century, and an outstanding Generation of ’98 author. Ambitious Ricardo and melancholic Liduvina are eloping. Seeking a golden future and leaving behind the muted sadness of family tragedy, their escape will have unforeseen consequences and shape their destinies as they chase happiness through the meanders of faith. A departure from the nivola genre, Una historia de amor (1933), is one Unamuno’s most conventional works, and one the best samples of his vivid and powerful prose. This book is ideal for proficient Spanish speakers seeking to expand their linguistic horizons.
