Tracing Texts - Episode 11: Rafael Dieste’s From the Goblin’s Archives Tracing Texts

- Books
In this episode, Antón discusses Rafael Dieste, one of the lesser-known figures of the Spanish Generation of 1927. His relative obscurity is perhaps due to the fact that he wrote both in Galician and Spanish, though he was very active throughout his long literary career. We discuss Dos Arquivos Do Trasno (From the Goblin's Archives), one of his most renowned works, which is a collection of short stories originally published in 1926. It was totally different from what other Galician and Spanish authors were writing at the time, especially because of his use of mystery, the supernatural, and elements of the horror story. We hope you enjoy this episode, and as always, we welcome comments and feedback!
