Today, however, the stories are admired. They are considered to be masterful representations of Dublin done with economy and grace - representations, as Joyce himself once explained, of a chapter in the moral history of Ireland that give the Irish a good look at themselves.

James M. Longo investigó durante años la vida de Adolf Hitler y el origen de su crueldad. Descubrió que antes de su intento de conquistar Europa, el líder nazi se dedicó a exterminar a quienes creía que habían llevado a su familia a la miseria, a los que truncaron sus aspiraciones artísticas y a quienes lo orillaron a vivir como indigente durante su adolescencia. Para Hitler había culpables: los reyes de su natal Austria, el linaje de los Habsburgo. Ese resentimiento lo motivó a presentarse como voluntario al ejército alemán, donde cultivó su terrible antisemitismo.

"El alumno", de Henry James, se centra en la relación entre un preceptor, su inteligente discípulo y la extravagante familia de éste. Su autor nos guía con exquisita destreza hacia un final tan inesperado como magistral. El tono de la obra, fuertemente emocional, alcanza en determinados pasajes la dignidad de las viejas tragedias griegas. Esta exageración se debe, tal vez, al magnífico desempeño de Henry James en la construcción de la trama.
