Sus cuentos persistirán, sin temer a las variaciones del gusto, porque son: en la forma acabados, en el fondo reales, y en todo latinos y franceses hasta el tuétano. Emilia Pardo Bazán Versión en Gallego a página que tienes ante ti, querid@ internauta, está dedicada a la obra y vida del genial autor francés Guy de Maupassant con motivo del 150º aniversario de su nacimiento. Maupassant nos ha dejado un rico legado literario. Su minuciosa percepción de la hormigueante humanidad que pululaba por el frívolo París de entreguerras, hizo de él un escritor tan hábil en las descripciones del hombre y de su entorno como el propio Dostoyevski. Junto con Emile Zola, entre otros, fue un genuino representante del naturalismo francés que tanta gloria dio a las letras de su patria. Nadie ofreció jamás un cuadro tan despiadado de la Francia de la época narrando historias atravesadas por temas como los niños abandonados, amores infelices, la crueldad de la guerra, la indiferencia de la mayoría o la mediocridad de la vida burguesa, por otra parte recurrentes a lo largo de casi toda su obra. Describe todo ello con gran maestría manteniendo una actitud esencialmente de espectador de una realidad banal o trágica en la que cada uno de los individuos está condenado a la impotencia. Puede decirse que su pluma fue una cámara fotográfica que plasmó la realidad de su tiempo. En este trabajo puedes encontrar su biografía , la mayoría de sus ediciones en español (

Maupassant took the subjects for his pessimistic stories and novels chiefly from the Norman peasant life, the Franco-Prussian War, the behavior of the bourgeoisie, and the fashionable life of Paris. During his last years of life Maupassant suffered from mental illness. Maupassant has been accused of misogynism but his portrayal of prostitutes was sympathetic. "Now listen carefully: Marriage, to me, is not a chain but an association. I must be free, entirely unfettered, in all my actions - my coming and my going; I can tolerate neither control, jealousy, nor criticism as to my conduct. I pledge my word, however, never to compromise the name of the man I marry, nor to render him ridiculous in the eyes of the world. But that man must promise to look upon meas an equal, an ally, and not as an inferior, or as an obedient, submissive wife. My ideas, I know, are not like those of other people, but I shall never change them."

- view comments - view ratings - printable version - handheld version ... Guy de Maupassant The Necklace She was one of those pretty and charming girls born, as though fate had blundered over her, into a family of artisans. She had no marriage portion, no expectations, no means of getting known, understood, loved, and wedded by a man of wealth and distinction; and she let herself be married off to a little clerk in the Ministry of Education. Her tastes were simple because she had never been able to afford any other, but she was as unhappy as though she had married beneath her; for women have no caste or class, their beauty, grace, and charm serving them for birth or family, their natural delicacy, their instinctive elegance, their nimbleness of wit, are their only mark of rank, and put the slum girl on a level with the highest lady in the land. She suffered endlessly, feeling herself born for every delicacy and luxury. She suffered from the poorness of her house, from its mean walls, worn chairs, and ugly curtains. All these things, of which other women of her class would not even have been aware, tormented and insulted her. The sight of the little Breton girl who came to do the work in her little house aroused heart-broken regrets and hopeless dreams in her mind. She imagined silent antechambers, heavy with Oriental tapestries, lit by torches in lofty bronze sockets, with two tall footmen in knee-breeches sleeping in large arm-chairs, overcome by the heavy warmth of the stove. She imagined vast saloons hung with antique silks, exquisite pieces of furniture supporting priceless ornaments, and small, charming, perfumed rooms, created just for little parties of intimate friends, men who were famous and sought after, whose homage roused every other woman's envious longings.

Guy attended a church school which he was apparently expelled from, followed by a lycée. He read law at a university in Paris, albeit interrupted for a few years by a spell in the army due to the Franco-Prussian war. After the war, Maupassant took up a government post while continuing to study law. It was during this period that he became friendly with Gustave Flaubert . Flaubert already knew Maupassant's mother through a childhood connection, and took Guy under his wing. He brought him into the so-called naturalist movement, and introduced him to Émile Zola (the leader of the naturalists) and Henry James Maupassant's big break came in 1880 (just before Flaubert died) when he published the story 'Boule de suif' ('Ball of Fat') alongside other influential Parisian writers, including Zola, in a collection called 'Les Soirées de Médan' ('The Parties of Medan'). Maupassant became a celebrity. The newspapers immediately offered him jobs, and his future as a writer seemed assured, and he began to publish his own collections of stories as well as several novels. Guy spent his money on wine, women and whimsy. He had already contracted syphilis before he became famous, but had refused treatment. Within a decade his mind was falling apart, probably because of the disease, and at the beginning of 1892 he tried to kill himself. His mother sent him to a mental institution in Paris where he died in 1893.

Home Author Index Shakespeare The Bible ... The Inn The Inn Search on this Page: Resembling in appearance all the wooden hostelries of the High Alps situated at the foot of glaciers in the barren rocky gorges that intersect the summits of the mountains, the Inn of Schwarenbach serves as a resting place for travellers crossing the Gemini Pass. It remains open for six months in the year and is inhabited by the family of Jean Hauser; then, as soon as the snow begins to fall and to fill the valley so as to make the road down to Loeche impassable, the father and his three sons go away and leave the house in charge of the old guide, Gaspard Hari, with the young guide, Ulrich Kunsi, and Sam, the great mountain dog. The two men and the dog remain till the spring in their snowy prison, with nothing before their eyes except the immense white slopes of the Balmhorn, surrounded by light, glistening summits, and are shut in, blocked up and buried by the snow which rises around them and which envelops, binds and crushes the little house, which lies piled on the roof, covering the windows and blocking up the door. It was the day on which the Hauser family were going to return to Loeche, as winter was approaching, and the descent was becoming dangerous. Three mules started first, laden with baggage and led by the three sons. Then the mother, Jeanne Hauser, and her daughter Louise mounted a fourth mule and set off in their turn and the father followed them, accompanied by the two men in charge, who were to escort the family as far as the brow of the descent. First of all they passed round the small lake, which was now frozen over, at the bottom of the mass of rocks which stretched in front of the inn, and then they followed the valley, which was dominated on all sides by the snow-covered summits.
