AlainRené Lesage Libros
Alain-René Le Sage fue un prolífico dramaturgo satírico francés cuya obra influyó significativamente en la literatura europea, especialmente a través de su clásica novela picaresca. Inspirado por el teatro y la literatura españoles, Le Sage creó obras de teatro y prosa satíricas que comentaban agudamente la sociedad parisina de su época. Su obra más célebre, considerada una de las primeras novelas realistas, sigue las aventuras de un joven protagonista adaptable que navega por diversos amos manteniendo un espíritu optimista, encontrando finalmente una jubilación pacífica. Le Sage es reconocido como sucesor de Molière por sus contribuciones a la comedia.
