Produced by Chuck Greif and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Fígaro (Artículos selectos)" by Mariano José de Larra is a collection of essays and articles written in the early 19th century. The work features the character Fígaro, who presents a satirical and observant perspective on Spanish society and the theater of his time. The essays cover a range of topics, including the nature of theater, societal norms, and the political landscape, reflecting Larra's keen wit and criticism. At the start of the work, the narrator, adopting the persona of Fígaro, expresses his desire to critique the Spanish theater, highlighting his reluctance due to doubts about the existence and worth of the theatrical scene. However, he is encouraged by a friend, who convinces him to share his thoughts and observations with the public. Fígaro introduces himself as a keen observer, ready to shed light on the absurdities of society while tackling various subjects, including the actors, their performances, and the failures of the government in supporting the arts. The opening sets a humorous and reflective tone, indicating that Fígaro will unapologetically confront the inconsistencies of his contemporary world.
