El poder de las historias: o cómo han cautivado al ser humano, de la Ilíada a Harry Potter

Book Details

Una visión nueva y enriquecedora de la historia de la cultura y nos enseña cuán grande ha sido y aún es el poder de las historias.

"El poder de las historias" es un viaje extraordinario a través del tiempo y alrededor del mundo para revelar cómo las historias y la literatura han creado el mundo que tenemos hoy, y cómo los textos escritos son los códigos que definen la identidad de los pueblos y la forma en que los seres humanos organizan sus vidas.

A través de dieciséis textos fundamentales seleccionados de entre los más de cuatro mil años de literatura universal —de "Gilgamesh" a "Harry Potter"—, Martin Puchner nos muestra cómo la escritura ha inspirado el auge y la caída de los imperios y las naciones, la chispa de las ideas políticas y filosóficas o el nacimiento de las creencias religiosas. El autor viaja además a sus escenarios originales: al sur del Sahara donde aún se recita la epopeya de Sunjata, a la selva lacandona en que viven los zapatistas, herederos de la cultura maya del "Popol Vuh"… Su libro nos ofrece una visión nueva y enriquecedora de la historia de la cultura sin olvidar cómo la aparición de la escritura, la imprenta o las nuevas formas de escritura —desde correos y libros electrónicos hasta blogs y Twitter— han cambiado no solo la forma en que se distribuye y lee la literatura sino también el modo en que se escribe. En definitiva, Puchner nos muestra cómo la literatura convirtió a nuestro planeta en un mundo escrito.

Martin Puchner es profesor de Literatura inglesa y comparada en la Universidad de Harvard.
