Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875–1950)
Autor de Tarzán de los monos
Sobre El Autor
Edgar Rice Burroughs was born on September 1, 1875, in Chicago. His father, George Tyler was a distiller and a battery manufacturer. Early in life Burroughs attempted to support his family in a variety of occupations, including railroad policeman, business partner, and miner. None of these proved mostrar más successful. However, Burroughs had always enjoyed reading adventure fiction and decided to try his hand at writing. His first attempt, written under the pseudonym Normal Bean, sold very quickly and Burroughs' career took off. Although critics and educators have not always been supportive of Burroughs' writing, the characters in his stories have entertained readers for many years. Tarzan was the most popular, earning Burroughs enough money to start his own publishing house and a motion picture company. Another character, John Carter, is the hero of Burroughs' Mars adventure series. The continuing popularity of these characters has led some critics to reconsider the value of Burroughs' writing and to acknowledge significant themes in his stories. Burroughs died on March 19, 1950. (Bowker Author Biography) mostrar menos

Reseñas
Tarzán de los monos por Edgar Rice Burroughs
Esta historia fue publicada por primera vez en la revista pulp All Story Magazine en octubre de 1912 y editada como libro en 1914. La historia se inicia en 1888, con la misión que la Corona británica le encomienda a John Clayton, lord Greystoke: visitar la aldea africana de Freetown en Sierra Leona y resolver los problemas con los habitantes nativos. Clayton decide viajar con su esposa embarazada, Alice Rutherford, para así poder ver el nacimiento de su hijo. De allí, embarcan en el Fuwalda para completar el viaje. Esta edición, con nueva traducción, es un homenaje a los libros de aventuras con los que hemos crecido numerosas generaciones de lectores.… (más)
Después de construir dos nuevos anotars (aeroplanos), uno de ellos para que Ero Shan pueda volver a su patria. Carson y Ero Shan deciden probar uno.Perdidos a causa de una tormenta, llegan a unos valles en los que un Mago e hipnotizador domina a los otros Nobles haciéndoles creer que tiene el poder de convertir a sus enemigos en zoldars (animal parecido al cerdo). Usando los poderes telepáticos y de sugestión que le enseño en su juventud su maestro hindú Chand Kabi, Carson logra asustar y vencer al llamado Mago de Venus, poniendo fin a la guerra entre las familias del valle.… (más)
Regreso a Pellucidar: Una fallida expedición bélica acaba con David Innes perdido en territorio hostil; mientras, Dian prueba el último invento de Abner Perry con funestas consecuencias. Hombres de la Edad de Bronce: Dian y O-aa acaban entre los xexots, quienes han alcanzado la Edad de Bronce, y se convierten en sendas diosas... de dos ciudades en guerra. Tigresa: David llega a la ciudad de la que O-aa es diosa y se las arregla para convertirse a su vez en dios; Dian, que ha huido de sus labores divinas, acaba como esclava en la peligrosa isla de Tandar. Salvaje Pellucidar: Los destinos de David, Dian, Hodon y O-aa se entrecruzan en el inmenso Korsar-Az y sus inexploradas costas.… (más)
Entre mares helados, rodeado por acantilados inexpugnables, allá donde ningún hombre se ha atrevido a poner el pie, se alza una isla continente descubierta brevemente por un explorador italiano que le dio su nombre: CAPRONA, conocida por sus extraños habitantes como Caspak. Es la tierra que el tiempo olvidó, un rompecabezas evolutivo donde razas de hombres y animales juegan un extraño ritual que sólo puede tener dos resultados: la muerte o la ascensión a un plano superior.De los dinosaurios a los mamuts, de los antepasados del Homo sapiens a los fantasmagóricos seres voladores que pueblan sus valles, cazadores y presas parecen proceder de un mismo limo primigenio que sigue sus propias reglas. Un mundo salvaje y violento, donde la vida no vale nada y los desdichados náufragos que llegan a sus junglas descubrirán que ni siquiera su tecnología de hombres de los albores del siglo veinte puede asegurarles una superioridad para la que tendrán que luchar a brazo partido, en todo momento, contra homínidos y bestias... Edgar Rice Burroughs le da la vuelta a las teorías de la evolución. El resultado, una aventura apasionante.… (más)
