Tras su llegada a España Washington Irving inicia un recorrido por tierras andaluzas. Durante su visita a Granada queda extasiado por la majestuosidad de la Alhambra en cuyas habitaciones tiene la fortuna de alojarse. Allí conoce a varios personajes que le acompañarán durante su estancia en tierras granadinas. De las conversaciones con éstos y de las historias que escucha a su fiel criado y guía Mateo Jiménez transcribirá leyendas y tradiciones transmitidas de padres a hijos durante generaciones. De esta forma con sus Cuentos de la Alhambra Washington Irving escribió una rica y detallada crónica de la España de la primera mitad del siglo XIX y sobre todo supo transmitir la magia y el misterio de toda una época. Porque algunas de las narraciones que componen el cuerpo central de la obra -la del astrólogo árabe que contribuyó con su magia a derrotar a los ejércitos enemigos; la de las tres hermosas princesas encerradas en una torre para que no se enamoraran; la del peregrino del amor también encerrado en una torre por su celoso padre; la del legado del moro que nos habla de un fabuloso tesoro encontrado por un aguador; la de la Rosa de la Alhambra en que se nos muestra un laúd maravilloso capaz de curar la melancolía del rey- bien podrían provenir de Las mil y una noches.

Upon his 1829 arrival in Granada, Spain, American author Washington Irving was immediately charmed by the city's beauty and picturesque qualities. While researching a book on the conquest of Granada, he gained access to the Alhambra Palace, which had fallen into disrepair after years of neglect. Irving became a guest at the ancient fortress, where he found himself in the company of several colorful inhabitants. During his sojourn, the writer became increasingly enamored of the grand palace and its wealth of history and folklore. The result is this captivating collection of essays, sketches, and tales. As Irving notes in his Preface, "It was my endeavor scrupulously to depict its half Spanish, half Oriental character; its mixture of the heroic, the poetic, and the grotesque; to revive the traces of grace and beauty fast fading from its walls; to record the regal and chivalrous traditions concerning those who once trod its courts; and the whimsical and superstitious legends of the motley race now burrowing among its ruins." A must-read for modern-day visitors to the Alhambra, this edition presents a fascinating selection of Irving's observations and stories.

"Sólo has de recordar que caminar por los salones de un palacio encantado y que todo es terreno fantástico" W. IrwinTras su llegada a España Washington Irving inicia un recorrido por tierras andaluzas. Durante su visita a Granada queda extasiado por la majestuosidad de La Alhambra en cuyas habitaciones tiene la fortuna de alojarse. Allí conoce a varios personajes que le acompañarán durante su estancia en tierras granadinas. De las conversaciones con éstos y de las historias que escucha a su fiel criado y guía Mateo Jiménez transcribirá leyendas y tradiciones transmitidas de padres a hijos durante generaciones. De esta forma con sus Cuentos de La Alhambra, Washington Irving escribió una rica y detallada crónica de la España de la primera mitad del siglo XIX y sobre todo supo transmitir la magia y el misterio de toda una época. Porque algunas de las narraciones que componen el cuerpo central de la obra -la del astrólogo árabe que contribuyó con su magia a derrotar a los ejércitos enemigos; la de las tres hermosas princesas encerradas en una torre para que no se enamoraran; la del peregrino del amor también encerrado en una torre por su celoso padre; la del legado del moro que nos habla de un fabuloso tesoro encontrado por un aguador; la de la Rosa de la Alhambra en que se nos muestra un laúd maravilloso capaz de curar la melancolía del rey, bien podrían provenir de Las mil y una noches. Leerlos es soñar. Cuentos de La Alhambra es quizá la obra que vinculó a Irving de una forma más intensa con España. Es un compendio de leyendas y apuntes sobre árabes y españoles. Un libro de creación literaria con base histórica, en el que se mezclan fantasía y realidad, un pasado maravilloso y legendario y un presente cotidiano lleno de vida y animación. Todo impregnado de un notable componente romántico. El encanto de La Alhambra radica en el espíritu soñador con el que el residente norteamericano del viejo palacio árabe penetró entre las bellezas del lugar y en la magia con la que supo trasladar las asociaciones románticas que aquellas despertaban en su mente.
