Visit the Madrid of Pérez Galdós, special schools

If you are looking for a literary route to do with your students, we suggest a walk through the Madrid of Don Benito Pérez Galdós, master of realism and everyday journalist.

We will walk through the streets and squares of Madrid, remembering this great writer and his characters. We will see how our city becomes the scene of the joys and sorrows of all of them, we will delve into their lives, we will contemplate how they intersect and, through them, we will discover the Madrid of the 19th century, a city between reality and reality. fiction, a city that reflects a turbulent century, but full of political, social and economic changes.

We will talk about Fortunata and Jacinta, the miser Torquemada, those from Bringas, Doctor Centeno, Benigna and the "moor" Almudena, the unemployed man, and many more. Nor will we forget the National Episodes, a chronicle, almost in real time, of that time, full of wars, conflicts, coups d'état and struggle for power on a path towards progress and S .XX.

It will be a fun way to get closer to the work of this great writer and, in the process, learn about or remember one of the most complicated centuries in our History.
