Synopsis "Ensayos Escogidos (in Spanish)"

Para referirse a su obra ensayística Chesterton solía decir que era un simple periodista jocoso que escribía breves artículos semanales sobre asuntos graciosos, y en cierta ocasión en que una admiradora se le acercó para decirle que parecía saber infinidad de cosas, le contestó escuetamente: «Madame, yo no sé nada, soy un periodista». La modestia del escritor terminó persuadiendo a muchos de sus contemporáneos, entre ellos Auden, quien sólo descubrió el valor de los ensayos de Chesterton cuando le encargaron la selección que el lector tiene en sus manos. En ella, el poeta inglés reúne los textos de Chesterton que le parecían tan amenos y agudos como sus piezas periodísticas, pero mucho más enjundiosos y penetrantes, y nos brinda una excelente ocasión para descubrir o releer a uno de los escritores más lúcidos y brillantes de la primera mitad del siglo pasado.

View Author's Page
G. K. Chesterton (London, May 29, 1874 – Beaconsfield, June 14, 1936) was a prolific British writer, author of essays, novels, poetry, biographies, and Christian apologetics. His work is characterized by irony, paradoxical wit, and a critical view of modernity. He was a prominent convert to Catholicism and an influential figure in religious and literary thought of his time. He is also known for his brilliant argumentative style and his defense of common sense.

Among his most recognized works are The Man Who Was Thursday (1908), Orthodoxy (1908), The Innocence of Father Brown (1911), Heretics (1905), The Ball and the Cross (1909), and The Resurrection of Rome (1930). He cultivated the essay, the novel of ideas, detective stories, and social and religious criticism.
