¡Hay que joderse!

Respuesta de la IA de google a mi búsqueda:

"La obra que buscas no es "La vida del pícaro", sino La vida de Lázaro de Tormes y de sus fortunas y adversidades, una novela anónima publicada por primera vez en 1554, no en 1601, que es considerada el origen de la novela picaresca moderna y narra las aventuras de un pícaro desde una perspectiva amarga y moralmente crítica de la sociedad española de la época."

¡BRUTAL! Sí a todas las adaptaciones. Al cine, al teatro (grabado, por favor), a serie limitada... juro que entonces me suscribo desde el extranjero a las plataformas digitales.

Y por lo menos tomen nota de estas fabulosas obras de literatura.

Un like, una obra de literatura clásica española que me repatea que no tenga una adaptación audiovisual reciente.

*Sí, esto puede ser un hilo infinito porque aparte de haber muchísimas obras no hay casi ninguna adaptación reciente.

3. Los Episodios Nacionales, de Galdós. Podría haber hecho trampa y usar las 40 novelas para 40 mariposts diferentes. Pero es que es LA GRAN ÉPICA ESPAÑOLA DEL SIGLO XIX CONTANDO CASI EL SIGLO ENTERO Y ES QUE POR NO SABER NO NOS SABEMOS NI LOS TÍTULOS DE LOS LIBROS NI CONOCEMOS A GABRIEL ARACELI.

"Binding Media: Hybrid Print-Digital Literature from across the Americas"
PUBLIC LECTURE
Open to all
Friday, Oct. 3
-
11:00am-12:0pm CT
Virtual
RSVP required
Far from signaling the "death of the book," digital technologies have enabled new literary forms that merge print and digital media. Binding Media explores these hybrid works across the Americas, showing how they challenge conventional literary, regional and linguistic boundaries.
While often marginalized due to technological and commercial constraints, these projects leave a rich legacy that illuminates cultural hybridization in the digital age.
Élika Ortega-Guzmán, PhD
Élika Ortega-Guzmán is an assistant professor in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese at the University of Colorado, Boulder. Her research focuses on the intersection of digital and print publishing, digital literature, cultural hybridity, digital humanities and multilingualism in academia. Ortega-Guzmán's work on these topics has appeared in venues such as ASAP Journal, PMLA, Hispanic Review, Debates in the Digital Humanities, EBR and others. She has also created literary bots, including Twitter bots dedicated to the work of Mexican writer and artist Ulises Carrión, which were featured in Antología LitELat Vol. 1 and have more recently been ported to Bluesky as @BotCarrión.
