Synopsis "Dos Relatos (in Spanish)"

Dos relatos es el título con el que se publicaba el primer volumen de Hogarth Press, la editorial creada por Leonard y Virginia Woolf en 1917, y que incluía un texto de cada uno de ellos: Tres judíos y La marca en la pared, respectivamente. Tres Judíos refleja con fidelidad el estilo cuidado y meticuloso de su autor a la par que una honda penetración en la estructura psicología de sus personajes. La marca en la pared significó toda una reorientación en los escritos de su autora hacia el lenguaje más moderno y experimental que iba a caracterizar sus obras posteriores. Editorial atípica, que imprimía sus propios libros, creada casi sin medios por dos personas inmersas en el ambiente literario pero que lo desconocían todo del trabajo de edición y de impresión.

Virginia Woolf was born in London on January 25, 1882, and died on March 28, 1941, drowned in the River Ouse. After her father's death, the well-known man of letters Sir Leslie Stephen, Virginia and her sister Vanessa left the elegant Kensington neighborhood and moved to the bohemian Bloomsbury, which named the brilliant literary group formed around the Stephen sisters. Among its members were T. S. Eliot, Bertrand Russell, Vita Sackville-West, and the writer Leonard Woolf, whom Virginia married and with whom she ran the prestigious Hogarth Press. From her early works, Virginia Woolf highlighted her intention to take novels beyond mere narration. In Mrs. Dalloway (1925) and To the Lighthouse (1927), the author expressed the inner feelings of the characters with her own techniques, achieving great psychological effects through images, metaphors, and symbols. Her technique was consolidated with Orlando (1931) and The Waves (1931), which secured her an indisputable place within the finest world literature. Additionally, Woolf wrote essays as famous as A Room of One's Own (1929), which still inspires new generations of women today, literary criticism articles like those compiled in The Common Reader (1925, 1932) and in Genius and Ink (2021), or the biography of the English poet Elizabeth Barrett's dog, Flush (1933). All these works are published by Lumen.
