Book Description

Canetti pertenece a esos escritores que en la vejez han alcanzado un altísimo grado de libertad y soberanía del espíritu - aquí aplicado a re-tejer su pensamiento una vez más sobre temas que siempre lo han acompañado: la misa, la muerte, el mito. Pero la forma de las "notas", admirablemente ágiles, permite también a Canetti apuntar en direcciones completamente diferentes: admiraciones relativamente recientes y muy intensas, como la de Robert Walser; antiguas aversiones que se reavivan constantemente, como la de Nietzsche; recuerdos nítidos de personajes que contaron mucho en la vida de Canetti, como el antropólogo Franz Steiner o el vienés Abraham Sonne; reacciones a lecturas omnívoras, siempre en progreso; finalmente referencias a los horrores del momento, en este caso Sarajevo y sus masacres. Y esas estenografías tan densas siempre las dejamos corroboradas y renovadas.Iniciadas en 1942, las notas de Canetti terminan con esta sección, que apareció por primera vez en Alemania en 1996; Adelphi publicará próximamente el volumen relativo a los años 1973-1984.

Elias Canetti

Elias Canetti (25 July 1905 – 14 August 1994) was a German-language writer, born in Ruse, Bulgaria to a Sephardic family. They moved to Manchester, England, but his father died in 1912, and his mother took her three sons back to continental Europe. They settled in Vienna.

Canetti moved to England in 1938 after the Anschluss to escape Nazi persecution. He became a British citizen in 1952. He is known as a modernist novelist, playwright, memoirist, and nonfiction writer. He won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1981, "for writings marked by a broad outlook, a wealth of ideas and artistic power". He is noted for his nonfiction book Crowds and Power, among other works.
