Sinopsis

Delve into the satirical world of José Francisco de IslaâÇÖs 'The History of the Famous Preacher, Friar Gerund de Campazas, Otherwise Gerund Zotes,' Volume 2, translated by Thomas Nugent. Originally published in 1772, this work lampoons the state of preaching and religious practices of the time. Through the character of Friar Gerund, Isla critiques the lack of substance and the excessive rhetoric prevalent in sermons. This volume offers a window into 18th-century Spanish society and the intellectual debates surrounding religion and education. The enduring appeal of 'Friar Gerund' lies in its sharp wit and insightful commentary on human foibles, making it a valuable read for those interested in satire, literary history, and the social commentary of the Enlightenment era.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
