La Celestina

Resumen del libro

A number of the great classics of Spanish-language literature are brought together in this series of specially adapted titles for young adults. Each title contains text written in a literary but accessible style and a full-color documentary that provides information about the author, the work, and the time period. Set in 15th-century Spain, this dramatic tale follows the star-crossed courtship of the young nobleman Calisto and the beautiful maiden Melibea and the role that Celestina, an aged prostitute and procuress, plays in their relationship. Feeling entranced after a chance encounter with Melibea, Calisto asks Celestina to help arrange another meeting. Celestina then promptly takes control of the young couples affair–until her guidance ultimately leads to tragedy. At times a comic character and at others a self-assertive promoter of womens sexual license, Celestina is a surprisingly modern woman who will be relished by a new generation of readers.
