Traumatized by civil war and fascist rule during much of the 20th century, Spain nevertheless produced its share of great thinkers and writers. This three-part series will familiarize viewers with a trio of Spanish authors—Manuel Altolaguirre, José Ortega y Gasset, and Juan Ramón Jiménez—all of whom left enduring literary legacies at home and around the world. Each episode features a compelling narrative enriched with rarely seen archival footage and detailed scholarly commentary. Not available in French-speaking Canada. Spanish with English subtitles, 3-part series, 51-58 minutes each.
