Synopsis "Esposas (in Spanish)"

"Esposas" es un libro de 1852, cuando ya William Makepeace Thackeray había conseguido éxito literario con Barry Lyndon y La feria de las vanidades. Gozando del respeto de público y crítica, el autor elaboró un proyecto que intentaba analizar de manera humorística todas las contradicciones de la sociedad victoriana, a partir de las relaciones entre mujeres y hombres. Ridiculizando las convenciones sociales de la Inglaterra de la mitad del siglo XIX, Thackeray pone un énfasis satírico en los vínculos ficticios que regulan las relaciones personales y las desmitifica. El libro se compone de tres novelas.

William Makepeace Thackeray (1811-1863) was a British novelist, known for his sharp social satire and portrayal of the aristocracy and middle class in Victorian England. He studied at Trinity College, Cambridge, but did not complete his education. After dabbling in journalism and illustration, he established himself as a writer with a style marked by humor and biting criticism of social hypocrisy.

Among his most notable works is Vanity Fair (1848), a social critique novel about ambition and hypocrisy in British society. He also wrote The Memoirs of Barry Lyndon (1844), which inspired Stanley Kubrick's film, and The History of Pendennis (1848-1850), a bildungsroman with autobiographical overtones. His literary legacy positions him as one of the great writers of the 19th century.
