Peru stands out among Latin American countries as an example of successful economic reforms over the past decade.

A study of Galdós' Jewish characters and what they tell us about the place of Jews in C19th Spanish society and culture. Few Spanish novelists have dealt with the problem of religion and religious commitment more comprehensively than Benito Pérez Galdós.

In the Jews, Galdós saw a people who, though victimized by religious intolerance, managed to survive persecution and affirm an abiding faithin God. He created Jewish characters throughout his long literary career and therefore presents the most comprehensive portrait of Jews as they existed in the culture, the religion and fabric of C19th Spanish society.

En empruntant aux biologistes de l'évolution leurs méthodes statistiques de classification des espèces du vivant sous forme d'arbres phylogénétiques, cet ouvrage novateur entreprend d'éta...
