Galdos And the Irony of Language

Benito Pèrez Galdòs was the foremost Spanish novelist of the nineteenth century. His novels are frequently compared with those of Dickens and Balzac, and considered examples of nineteenth-century realism. In a speech before the Spanish Academy of Language, Galdòs himself declared that the novel is 'an image of life'; scholars have often considered that image to be an uncritical reflection, or even a biased misrepresentation of the Spanish society of the time.Urey, Diane F. is the author of 'Galdos And the Irony of Language ', published 0013 under ISBN 9780521673327 and ISBN 0521673321.
