The Marquis of Peñalta (Marta y María): A Realistic Social Novel

THE work which I now have the honor of presenting to the public is not based upon ordinary every-day occurrences; nor are the incidents narrated in it such as we are wont frequently to witness. Very likely it will be called untrue or improbable, and regarded as a fanciful production, remote from all reality. With resignation I bow myself in advance to these criticisms, though I claim the right to protest in my own heart, if not publicly, against the unfairness of such a charge. For the chief events of this novelI must say it, though my glory as an originator may be destroyedhave all actually taken place. The author has done nothing more than recount them and give them unity. I have the presumption to believe that, though Marta y Mara may not be a beautiful novel, it is a realistic novel. I know that realismat the present time called naturalismhas many impulsive adepts, who conceive that truth exists only in the vulgar incidents of life, and that these are the only ones worth transferring to art. Fortunately this is not the case. Outside of markets, garrets, and slums, the truth exists no less. The very apostle of naturalism, Emil Zola, confesses this by painting scenes of polished and lofty poetry, which assuredly conflict with his exaggerated sthetic theories. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
