Synopsis "Magellan"

The Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan (1480-1521) is one of the most famous navigators in history - he was the first man to sail from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, and led the first voyage to circumnavigate the globe, although he was killed en route in a battle in the Philippines.In this biography, Zweig brings to life the Age of Discovery by telling the tale of one of the era's most daring adventurers. In typically flowing and elegant prose he takes us on a fascinating journey of discovery ourselves.

  (Author)
View Author's Page
(Viena, 1881 – Petrópolis, Brasil, 1942) escritor muy popular, tanto en su faceta de ensayista y biógrafo como en la de novelista, fue uno de los escritores más polifacéticos de la primera mitad del siglo XX. Su capacidad narrativa, la pericia y la delicadeza en la descripción de los sentimientos y la elegancia de su estilo lo convierten en un narrador fascinante. Se relacionó con los grandes autores de su tiempo: Rilke, Joseph Roth, Thomas Mann, H. G. Wells, Tagore, entre otros. Tras algunas décadas en las que sus obras se vieron inexplicablemente ignoradas, Zweig ha sido recuperado y actualmente goza del prestigio y la popularidad que por justicia literaria le correspondía.
