Viajeros hispanoamericanos en Madrid
Es una deliciosa recopilación de textos de autores y viajeros hispanoamericanos que pasaron por Madrid y describieron lo que vivieron y vieron, algunos con sorna otros con críticas, otros con nostalgia, otros con viveza, otos con la lógica visión de alguién de fuera y otros con planteamientos políticos. Todos ellos anunciando un Madrid decadente, o en esplendor, pero a la vez con la idea de que Madrid para ellos es un referente necesario. En sus páginas hay textos de gran belleza estética y algunos de fina ironía de autores tan renombrados como Martí, Darío, César Vallejo, Carpentier, Neruda, Guillén o Mario Vargas Llosa. Una nueva visión para los amantes de Madrid.

Sin embargo, frecuentemente se interpreta en un contexto negativo, ya que las partes interesadas no siempre usan métodos veraces para difundir sus ideas. Y muy a menudo los hechos se distorsionan y se acaban sacando de su contexto. La leyenda negra antiespañola es un fenómeno único. Se conformó durante el siglo XVI, período en el que España era el país europeo más poderoso y el primer Imperio global, pero aún hoy continúa existiendo, si bien es verdad que el concepto ha ido evolucionando. La leyenda negra es, en realidad, un fenómeno notablemente complejo que tiene connotaciones europeas y americanas. Con respecto a estas ...
