Overview
Nueva ediciĆ³n conmemorativa por el 50 aniversario del popular personaje, que es ya una figura reconocida a nivel internacional.
Este es el nĆŗmero 10 de una serie de libros cuya protagonista es Mafalda, el cĆ©lebre personaje de Quino. Estas tiras cĆ³micas fueron publicadas en diarios de Buenos Aires, CĆ³rdoba, TucumĆ”n, Santa FĆ© y Montevideo.
Desde la Guerra de Vietnam y la carrera espacial hasta el movimiento tercermundista y los derechos humanos, el mundo entero se simboliza en un globo terrĆ”queo que la protagonista cuida, igual que a un enfermo: lo acuesta en la cama, lo abriga y hasta intenta mejorarlo con las cremas de belleza de su madre. Con Mafalda la infancia perdiĆ³ su inocencia, mientras el gĆ©nero de la historieta pasĆ³ de lo social a lo psicolĆ³gico.
Mafalda estĆ” mĆ”s viva que nunca. Reaparece siempre fresca y renovada en sus nuevos libros y periĆ³dicos. Hace cine y televisiĆ³n. Viaja en la imaginaciĆ³n colectiva de infinidad de naciones que son muy diferentes entre ellas culturalmente. Y llega a los lugares mĆ”s insospechados, volviĆ©ndose familiar a generaciones que no tienen nada que ver con la que vio nacer a Mafalda.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Through Mafalda and her friends, Quino reflects with critical, intelligent humor about politics, economics, and society at large.
New commemorative edition on the characterās 50th anniversary, a character that is already an internationally acclaimed figure.
This is number ten in a book series with Mafalda, Quinoās famous character, as protagonist. These comic strips were published in newspapers around Buenos Aires, CĆ³rdoba, TucumĆ”n, Santa Fe, and Montevideo.
Ā
From the Vietnam War and the Space Race, to the third-world movement and human rights, the entire world is symbolized by a globe the protagonist watches over as she would an ailing person: she puts it to bed, keeps it warm, and even tries to make it better with her motherās beauty creams. With Mafalda, childhood lost its innocence, whilst comic strips turned from social to psychological.
Ā
Mafalda is as alive as ever. She reappears fresh and renewed in journals and in her new books. She makes movies and television.
