Entre los grandes escritores del siglo XIX, Lev Nicoláievich Tolstói (1828-1910) ha sido calificado como genio único, sin equivalente en ningún otro país. Hijo de un acaudalado terrateniente que le dejó una fortuna inmensa, se lanzó por la vía de la disipación hasta que su participación como oficial durante la guerra de Crimea le hizo volverse hacia unos valores humanistas y continuar una vocación literaria en la que ya se había iniciado antes de la guerra. El cambio afectó a sus convicciones espirituales más íntimas y desembocaría, al final de su vida, en una crisis moral y religiosa que derivó hacia un cristianismo evangélico radical. Al comienzo de esta etapa escribe Ana Karenina, en la que Tolstói refleja su visión de la sociedad urbana, símbolo de los vicios y el pecado, en oposición a la vida sana de la naturaleza y del campo. De ese mundo necio y patológico de la ciudad es víctima Ana Karenina, que se ha convertido en una figura clave de la literatura universal.

Byron's free-spirited lifestyle combined with his rare poetic gift to make him one of the foremost figures of the Romantic Era. This collection of his poems, richly varied in mood and content, captures the essence of his great achievement. Among the thirty-one poems included are convivial song-like poems, love poems, travel poems, humorous and satiric poems. Shorter works such as the famous "She Walks in Beauty," "Stanzas to Augusta" and "So We'll Go No More a Roving" are well represented. Also here are important longer works — "The Prisoner of Chillon," "Beppo," "The Vision of Judgment," all unabridged — and lyrics excerpted from Don Juan, Childe Harold's Pilgrimage, and the play Manfred. Taken together, these are poems that draw readers quickly into the passions, humors, and convictions of a poet whose life and work truly embodied the Romantic spirit.

Werther es un joven vitalista al que le apasionan los espectáculos naturales, los niños como representación de un futuro prometedor y los poemas de Homero y Ossian. En su retiro en un pequeño pueblo alemán conoce a Lotte, de la que no tarda en enamorarse, a pesar de que ella está ya prometida. La aparentemente sencilla historia de amor que se nos relata en Las penas del joven Werther se transforma, en manos de un genio como Goethe, en una innovadora obra de arte, toda una declaración de principios en contra de las normas establecidas y en la que se nota la clara voluntad del autor de romper las fronteras del lenguaje y con la tradición literaria anterior. Inmediatamente después de su publicación, la novela sacudió los cimientos de la cultura europea, se convirtió en punta de lanza del movimiento romántico al que precedió e hizo de su protagonista el modelo de toda una generación de jóvenes.
