Overview

¡FELIZ CUMPLEAÑOS, MAFALDA!

En su 60º aniversario, descubre todo lo que no sabías sobre Mafalda y su mundo

«Mafalda, esa niña que, a estas alturas, ya debería ser Patrimonio de la Humanidad». -El País

¿Sabías que la personalidad de Felipe está inspirada en la infancia de Quino, con su pasión por las historietas, su imaginación, su timidez y el aburrimiento a la hora de sentarse a estudiar? ¿O que al autor le encantaba la sopa y, sin embargo, prefirió que Mafalda la odiara, como un gesto simbólico contra las imposiciones y los autoritarismos? ¿Y que, cuando era un niño, Quino tuvo la radio como un importantísimo medio para estar siempre informado? Sus padres, andaluces, siguieron a través de las ondas las noticias que llegaban de los frentes de batalla de la guerra civil española.
 
Todos estos datos y una infinidad más se encuentran en este libro único que nos acerca a cada uno de los personajes de la mítica tira del gran autor argentino y nos sumerge en el universo de Mafalda a través de declaraciones, fotografías, análisis de los temas e información clave sobre el contexto histórico y social: el auge del psicoanálisis, la expansión de los medios de comunicación, la tensión entre Estados Unidos y la Unión Soviética, la conquista del espacio, la guerra de Vietnam o el avance de los movimientos en favor de los derechos humanos. Universo Mafalda, que ha recibido el Premio Banda Dibujada, es el mejor homenaje a un autor inolvidable en el sesenta aniversario de su personaje más querido.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MAFALDA!

In her 60th anniversary, discover everything you didn’t know about Mafalda and her world.

Did you know that Felipe’s personality was inspired in Quino’s childhood, with his passion for comic strips, his imagination, his shyness, and his boredom when it was time to sit down and actually study? Or that the author loved soup, and yet preferred to make Mafalda hate it as a symbolic gesture against imposition and authoritarianism? And that, when he was a boy, Quino found in the radio a massively important mean to keep himself informed? His parents, both Andalucian, followed every news from the frontlines of the Spanish Civil War through the waves.
 
All this details and countless more are gathered in this one-of-a-kind book that brings us closer to each of the characters in the mythical comic strip by this great Argentinian author, and takes us to Mafalda’s universe through statements, photographs, analysis of topics, and key information regarding the historical and social context: the boom of psychoanalysis, the expansion of the media, the tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union, the conquest of space, the Vietnam War, or the advancement of the civil rights movement. Mafalda Universe, which has received the Banda Dibujada Prize, is the greatest tribute to an unforgettable author in the sixtieth birthday of his most beloved character.
