The type of test in which most Americans fail. The Spaniards get everything right, they almost feel offended such questions are asked to them.❤
@@Terrk-wt9hw Why getting so angry? I am talking about similar videos. If you watch Jay Leno's interviews in the streets, asking people basic questions, their answers are not only wrong, but also stupid. I wonder if they would know who the hell is Emerson or Thoureau. English is not my native language, but I read both. If the Spaniards mention El Quijote, it is because they read it in school, so they know what they are talking about. My first language is Spanish; these people speak it beautifully, you can tell they have a very good educational system over there. Of course, in the USA there are many educated people, but too many idiots too, otherwise how the hell do you explain an imbecile like Trump in the White House?
@@Terrk-wt9hwlet alone the fact the video literally took place in a book festival
why are you a hater
@@studywithsylvana I am not. English is not my native language. I was actually talking about the midnight shows where people like Jay Leno interviews people in the streets, asking basic questions like the ones you hear in this video... and everyone fails; Leno makes fun of it. But going back to your question, we are human and humans have the capacity to hate. I do not hate Americans, I have many American friends whom I love. But... don't you hate Tucker Carlson or Donald Trump? I do. And I think there is no choice but to hate in such cases.
This Europe and here we study things deeply and not superficially lol
I’m familiar with Antonio Machado’s "Caminante, No Hay Camino”, because Joan Manuel Serrat (Cantares) and Las Bistecs (Caminante) both uses the poem in their songs. There's a lot of great Spanish music!
Vivo lejos de España y estos vídeos me hacen sentir más cerca de mi cultura y mi tierra. Gracias.
As a spaniard I recommend for any foreigners that want to start reading spanish literature to go with El Lazarillo de Tormes.
It is a book of unknown author from around the XV century because it would have been censored by the catholic church if the writer would dare to come out. Its a book with class perspective that speaks volumes of spanish society. Im surprised it didnt come out in the video since it is a classic, the second most important one i would say after the quixote. But unlike many books mentioned in the video it doesnt require any knowledge of spanish history or culture to understand it, many of the books mentioned are too complicated for foreigners as a starter.
Its set on medieval spain but the topics that the books touches are absolutely constant in spanish culture and present nowadays. And you can even trace many real world spanish political struggles to the book. I strongly suggest to begin with this one since it would be the easier to understand and get into, only have to rely on a dictionary for a few words that are not present anymore in modern spanish.
no se van a enterar de nada si lo leen en castellano del siglo XV
Commonly we use to say that our most universal book is the Quixote but,.. the exemplar nobels of the own Cervantes are masterpieces,.. the book of the good love from Hita’s Archipriest,.. rhymes and legends from Beqcker,.. so extense,..

Awesome video thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
People should read the books of Ignacio Martínez de Pisón to get a good grasp about Spain
¡Hola Sensational Spain! Estoy disfrutando tus vídeos aquí. !¡Hay mucha literatura clásica de España!
¿Una cosa, puedes subir los vídeos sin subtítulos? Estará mejor para practicar nuestros habilidades de escuchar. ¡Gracias por tus vídeos!
hola!! si ves desde el móvil puedes hacer zoom para evitar los subtítulos!! saludos!!
2:49 Muy buena persona.
1:11 Con Pérez-Reverte, para que me explique por qué tilda los monosílabos.
La ortografía vigente cuando fue a la escuela (él y también yo) acentuaba numerosos monosílabos que dejaron de acentuarse en 2010, es decir, ayer mismo. Los correctores ayudan pero no es fácil el cambio.
Por qué? Tu acabas de tildar uno (que) y no sabes por qué?
@@viquiben4919 Muy bueno, sí señor.
Vargas Llosa, aparte de peruano es también español, luego cuenta como Nobel.
6:00 El número de ventas no es indicativo de calidad y el premio Nobel menos, sólo hay que ver el premio Nobel de la paz.
¿Y que tiene que ver el Premio Nobel de la Paz con las ventas de un autor y su calidad literaria?
La gente nacida aproximadamente del 2003 hasta ahora me atrevería a decir que no saben responder ni un cuarto de las preguntas
Vargas Llosa es peruano, por el amor de Dios!
Tiene doble nacionalidad, por el amor de Dios!
Y español.
Nomas voy a decir.....aguante borges carajo 👍
Literatura española GIL !!!!
Esto va para las personas que hacen este canal de CZcams, os habéis leído la totalidad de todos los manuales de mantenimiento y funcionamiento de todos los aparatos eléctricos electrónicos qué utilizáis para vuestra vida diaria. El manual de funcionamiento de vuestro coche bicicleta motocicleta...
Las novelas no se realizan. Se escriben. De verdad, cuánto cursi que no sabe hablar.
Y cuánto ofendido por un simple fallo al expresarse...
@@dalor9148, sólo uno. Una pena.
@@robert111k Me molesta que pongas una coma delante de una frase y que dicha frase no comience en mayúscula. Ya somos dos.
@@dalor9148, después de una vocación o apelación poner una coma es lo suyo. Ejemplo: "Manuel, haz el favor de venir". Te lo pongo facilito porque veo que te hace falta. De nada.
@@dalor9148tanto cursi que no sabe expresarse😂
So, you ask Madrileños who copied Sant Jordi (a catalán tradition that not only invoques books) about Spanish books. Laaaaame
Cope
Es el día del libro no sant Jordi. En sant Jordi también se celebra el día del libro. La leyenda de sant Jordi por tradición se da una rosa no un libro. Ese día murió Shakespeare y Cervantes.
Sant Jordi (April 23st) and Feria de Libro (May-June) are different dates.
1) Sant Jordi and la Feria del Libro ara two different events with different dates. 2) Catalans give away books in Sant Jordi because the date match up with The Book Day, not because they invented that tradition. In Madrid we don’t celebrate Sant Jordi, but we do give away books (because is The Book Day).
PD: The Book Day is celebrated in that date because Shakespeare and Cervantes died that day, and Miguel de Cervantes was from Madrid, so if there is someone stealing traditions and culture in here are the catalans to the madrileños
Cataluña is not the center of the world, stop embarrasing yourself and the rest of catalonians, because otherwise we are going to start thinking that you are all that uneducated
No tiene nada que ver el día del libro y el san Jorge.
