Rosa Chacel belongs to that brilliant generation of artists that moved to the cultural vanguard in the 1920s and 1930s: García Lorca, Buñuel, Dali, Alberti, Guillén, Aleixandre. As a young artist—a sculptor and writer—she participated in the intellectual ferment of Madrid during those decades. But the victory of fascism in the late thirties erased Chacel's works and the works of other women from the cultural memory until recently. In the interim Chacel was exiled in Brazil and Argentina. At last her work has returned to light. So has Chacel herself.The Maravillas District (Barrio de maravillas, 1976) is the first novel in an autobiographical trilogy and the finest of Chacel's works to date. Proustian in its use of memory (yet unique in style), it traces two girls' discovery of their artistic and intellectual vocations, focusing less on the social and cultural obstacles to women's self-realization--though these are present—than on the invicible impulses of imagination and intellect in these girls' lives and on the enabling power of their mutual support. In its English translation it will rank alongside Virginia Woolf's and Sylvia Plath's autobiographical works depicting the woman artist's experience.

A masterpiece of modernist fiction about one man’s search for meaning, Dream of Reason (La sinrazón) reveals Rosa Chacel as an intellectual and literary innovator whose work stands alongside that of Joyce, Proust, and Woolf. This meditative novel, grounded in the thinking of Spain’s great modern philosopher Ortega y Gasset, unfolds as the journal of a bourgeois chemist who makes his way in Buenos Aires just before and during the Spanish Civil War. Tracing his relationship with three women, Santiago Hernández explores the power of his own intentions and the limits of human reason. His introspective experiment, set against the background of world-altering events, documents the workings of a self-absorbed mind speculating on the inseparability of self and circumstance and is a brilliant enactment of how, from such tensions, narrative emerges.

Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts in Simancas, einem mittelalterlichen Städtchen und Hort des Königlichen Spanischen Generalarchivs: Hier lebt die elfjährige Leticia im Haus ihrer Tante. Die Mutter ist verstorben, der geheimnisvolle Vater kehrt eines Tages als Invalide aus dem marokkanischen Feldzug zurück.Leticia – wissensdurstig, begabt, ihre Umwelt und sich selbst unerbittlich analysierend – kommt in das Haus des Stadtarchivars Don Daniel, um dort Musikunterricht bei dessen Frau Doña Luisa zu erhalten. Es entspinnt sich eine Dreieckskonstellation wechselnder Komplizenschaften, die geradewegs in die Katastrophe zu führen scheint.Rosa Chacel geht es nicht um voyeuristische Lust am Skandal. Sie vertraut ganz auf die hellsichtige Selbsterkundung Leticias, ihren leidenschaftlichen, komplexen Charakter, der die gesellschaftlichen Grenzziehungen seiner Zeit unterläuft. Ein psychologisch meisterhaftes Porträt der Künstlerin als junge Frau.

En Alcancía. Ida, que comienza con un viaje transatlántico en el año 1940, se reúnen más de dos décadas de los diarios de Rosa Chacel. Este testimonio, de una lucidez abrumadora, deja un registro de la vida que la autora vallisoletana tuvo en Buenos Aires, Río de Janeiro, Nueva York y París, entre otros destinos a los que la llevaron el exilio y los avatares de la historia.Alcancía. Ida da cuenta del innegociable compromiso que Rosa Chacel (1898-1994) asumió con la literatura y con el pensamiento, a pesar de las dificultades económicas, familiares y personales que la aquejaron. Es también un documento de la época que le tocó vivir, al tiempo que un íntimo laboratorio de escritura: aquel en el que se pergeñaron algunas de las piezas más importantes de su obra y de la literatura española del siglo XX.

Astillas reúne un plural conjunto de ensayos y artículos que por diversos motivos no fueron en su día incluidos en los correspondientes tomos de la Obra completa de la autora. Algunos matizan el anterior relato autobiográfico; otros tratan de sus libros, o de temas característicos del pensamiento de Chacel, ahondando en su singular mundo interior; algunos abordan la condición de la mujer y reflexionan sobre nuestro destino; otros hablan de «lo que se ve» o «lo que pasa», y constituyen lúcidas crónicas del presente; y hay también exquisitas piezas que versan sobre escritores u obras con los que ella mantuvo una amistad o afinidad intelectual y estética.Estos textos muy distintos entre sí por su variada temática, procedencia y extensión, iluminan la vida y la obra de Rosa Chacel.

First English translation of these important works by two of Spain's most gifted writers and intellectuals.Following the defeat of the Second Spanish Republic, María Zambrano (1904–1991) and Rosa Chacel (1898–1994), two of Spain's most gifted intellectuals and writers, wrote compelling meditations on the meaning of confession in life and literature. Noël Valis and Carol Maier provide the first complete English-language translations of these essays. Zambrano and Chacel were friends, if not always amicably so; supporters of the Republic; and exiles. Both disciples of the philosopher Ortega y Gasset, they were nevertheless able to establish their own creative independence in their writing. Not only do the essays address national issues centered on Spanish literature, culture, and history, they also offer a unique philosophical-spiritual and literary approach to confession within the areas of philosophy, literature, religion, autobiography, women's and gender studies, and cultural studies. The translators' introduction, afterword, and meticulous annotations supplement the texts.
