This book represents a new in-depth study of the main novels and the artistry of Miguel de Unamuno. The author argues convincingly that many of the interpretations applied to Unamuno's novels are no longer valid, forcing us to reconsider the whole approach to the Rector of Salamanca. By submitting Unamuno's novels to a detailed textual analysis and comparing them with the rest of Don Miguel's work, Díaz-Peterson places them within a perspective which allows the reader to perceive in a definitive manner their thought and artistry, emphasizing the role of scholasticism in all of Unamuno's novels. "Una obra crítica de gran profundidad y de ineludible utilidad por sus aportaciones documentadas y bien analizadas." —Lía N. Uriarte Rebandi, Letras Peninsulares.
