Synopsis "Miguel Strogoff (in Spanish)"

De acuerdo con el complemento del título incluido en portada (Moscú-Irkust), el argumento de Miguel Strogoff relata la variedad de territorios, peligros y sufrimientos que el protagonista debe superar para cumplir la misión que le ha encomendado personalmente el zar: preservar la unidad de la patria. Tal narración conlleva la descripción de las regiones y poblaciones que, como correo, debía recorrer hasta alcanzar su destino. El hecho de que el ferrocarril se encontraba en plena expansión explica que la primera parte del viaje se realiza en las mejores condiciones. Una vez finalizado el camino de hierro, en Nijni-Novgorod, comienza la verdadera esencia de la historia novelesca, donde los personajes tienen ocasión de mostrar sus facultades y, también, sus sentimientos e ideas sobre los más variopintos aspectos.

Jules Verne was a prolific French author who is considered one of the fathers of science fiction, alongside the English H. G. Wells. He began by writing some theatrical plays and published several short stories and scientific articles. His ambition was to write a new type of novel, one that combined adventure with scientific facts. That dream was fulfilled with Five Weeks in a Balloon, the first of his great novels. Verne was always very interested in the scientific novelties of his time. From that passion, seminal works of science fiction such as Journey to the Center of the Earth, Around the Moon, and Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea were born. Verne's influence goes beyond literature, as he has inspired several generations of people who have dedicated themselves to science.
