Tristana is a novel where love, hate and power converge into a triangle of domination and frustration.Galdós', following the ideas of the Free Teaching Institution, intervened in the arena of the debate around the emancipation of women and their incorporation into the public sphere. Tristana, a young woman subjected to the rule of the tyrannical Don Lope, idealistically tries to find her purpose on life but she ends trapped by the rules of a world dominated by men who only see her as the object of their desire. Written in an experimental manner that defies the boundaries of theatre, epistolary and novel genres, Galdós' displays the purest nature of his characters by presenting their contradictions, weaknesses and virtues. He uses a deliberately ambiguous style that seeks to address fundamental questions regarding the unbalances of a Madrid in times of turbulence, but leaves the reader to draw their own meaning.

Benito Pérez Galdós wurde 1843 in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria geboren. Im Alter von 19 Jahren ging er nach Madrid, um Jura zu studieren. Dort lernte er Francisco Giner de los Ríos kennen, den Begründer der Institución Libre de Enseñanza, der ihn mit der Philosophie des Krausismo vertraut machte und ihn zum Schreiben ermutigte. Seinen ersten, noch von der Romantik beeinflußten Roman La fontana de oro veröffentlichte Galdós 1870. Er beschäftigte sich intensiv mit den Werken von Balzac und Dickens, die sein erzählerisches Werk zunehmend prägten. 1873 begann Galdós sein Projekt der Episodios nacionales, einem Zyklus historischer Romane, die sich mit der spanischen Geschichte des 19. Jahrhunderts auseinandersetzen. Zwischen 1873 und 1912 entstanden 46 Romane in diesem Zyklus. Galdós arbeitete auch als Journalist und schrieb Artikel zu gesellschaftlichen und politischen Problemen seiner Zeit. Galdós gilt aber vor allem als der Begründer des modernen spanischen Romans. Er schrieb weitere 32 Romane, die vorwiegend das Leben der spanischen Bourgeoisie, deren Gebräuche und Moralvorstellungen schildern und sich durch die feine psychologische Durchdringung der Charaktere auszeichnen. Zu den bekanntesten zählen Doña Perfecta (1876) und Fortunata y Jacinta (1886/87). In den 1890er Jahren beschäftigte Galdós sich auch mit dem Theater und schrieb mehrere Stücke. 1897 wurde Galdós Mitglied der Königlichen Spanischen Akademie der Sprache. Er engagierte sich auch politisch und war 1907 Spitzenkandidat der Republikanisch-Sozialistischen Partei in Madrid. 1912 erblindete er und starb 1920 in Madrid.

Catherine Deneuve is indisputably one of the world's most celebrated actresses, both in her native France and throughout the world. Her career has spanned five decades during which she has worked with the most significant of French auteurs, as well as forging partnerships with international directors such as Bunuel and Polanski. The Deneuve star persona has attained such iconic status that it can now symbolise the very essence of French womanhood and civic identity. In this wide-ranging and authoritative collection of essays by a selection of international film academics and writers, the Deneuve persona is scrutinised and illuminated. Beyond the glamorous iconographic status of Yves Saint Laurent's muse, and the epitome of sexual inviolability, Deneuve's status as actress is foregrounded. The book will be essential reading for students and lecturers in star studies.
