Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. El Lazarillo de Tormes es la primera novela picaresca de la literatura española y una de las más populares de su historia. El Lazarillo de Tormes, publicada en 1554, es un esbozo irónico y despiadado de la sociedad del momento, de la que se muestran sus vicios y actitudes hipócritas, sobre todo las de los clérigos y religiosos. El tema principal de El Lazarillo de Tormes es moral, y supone una crítica feroz al falso sentido del honor y a la hipocresía, que solo sirve a los poderosos mientras que los pobres (representados por Lázaro) pasan hambre y miseria. Uno de los mensajes de la novela es el despertar de Lázaro a la vida real, donde aprende que para progresar hay que aparentar ser virtuoso, pero no serlo. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
