Benito Perez Galdos is rightfully considered the most outstanding Spanish writer-realist of the 19th century. Some admirers of Galdos even put him on a par with Miguel de Cervantes. “Without exaggeration, one can say,” said the writer and historian of Spanish poetry Federico Sains de Robblez, “that Galdos is a direct successor to Cervantes and that there was not a single novelist of such a gigantic scale ...
Haldos has no equal in our era, like Cervantes in his own. Cervantes and Galdos are two brilliant novelists of Spain. " The creative heritage of Galdos is striking not only with a huge number of works, but also by genre diversity. His pen owns numerous dramatic works, journalistic articles, travel essays, literary and critical studies, memoirs, but he is known primarily as a novelist. Galdos gained literary glory to his historical-romantic episodes. Having set the task of stateing in an artistic form the main events of Spanish history in seventy -five years (from 1805 to 1880) Haldos had his own concept of the historical process, different from the concepts that prevailed at that time in bourgeois literature: first of all, he resolutely rejected "what is usually called history", when they only "tell about the marriage of kings and princes, agreements and unions, marine and lands battles and completely forget about everything else, from which, in fact, the existence of peoples is formed. The writer considered the main driving force of history. He put this idea the basis of his story
