About this title

Synopsis

"Sab" constituye una singular aportaci�n a la novela antiesclavista. La autora sigue en ella los modelos t�picos de la novela rom�ntica y mezcla reminiscencias autobiogr�ficas y modelos literarios. Hay en ella alegato reivindicador de la dura vida de los negros, solidaridad con los indios v�ctimas de la barbarie espa�ola y compromiso en el sentimiento y pasi�n por dar un testimonio social.

About the Author

Gertrudis G�mez de Avellaneda (Camag�ey, 1814-Madrid, 1873). Cuba. Era hija de un oficial de la marina espa�ola y de una cubana. Escribi� novelas y dramas y fue actriz. Estudi� franc�s y ley� mucho, sobre todo autores espa�oles y franceses. Tras una corta estancia en Burdeos, vivi� un a�o en La Coru�a y despu�s en Sevilla, donde conoci� a Ignacio Cepeda, con quien tuvo un romance. Por esta �poca ejerci� el periodismo y estren� su primer drama. Su creciente prestigio literario le permiti� establecer amistad con Espronceda y Zorrilla. Poco despu�s se cas� con Pedro Sabater, quien muri� tres meses m�s tarde. Tras un retiro conventual, la Avellaneda volvi� a Madrid y, entre 1846 y 1858, estren� al menos trece obras dram�ticas. Hacia 1853 quiso entrar en la Academia Espa�ola, pero se le neg� por ser mujer. En 1855 se cas� con el coronel Domingo Verdugo, conocida figura pol�tica que en 1858 fue v�ctima de un atentado. M�s tarde �ste fue nombrado para un cargo oficial en Cuba. Entonces la Avellaneda dirigi� en La Habana la revista �lbum cubano de lo bueno y de lo bello (1860). Su marido muri� en 1863 y ella se fue a los Estados Unidos. Estuvo en Londres y Par�s y regres� a Madrid en 1864. Durante los cuatro a�os siguientes vivi� en Sevilla. Utiliz� el seud�nimo de La peregrina.
