Description
25 characters that changed the world. Library of Cultural Albums (No. 1) of the Círculo de Lectores. 1993. In perfect condition, without marks, without use, with all the plates mounted.
In 1993, the Círculo de Lectores began publishing a series of books in which each month 8 color plates had to be placed, in a total of 96 plates in 12 envelopes of 8 each. The one dedicated to the 25 men who changed the world was the first, then two more followed in later years. The system was not very successful, since this type of collecting was not very well accepted by its clients, despite the benefits that said system has.
Illustrated hardcover book, 22 x 30.5 cm format, 160 pages with black and white illustrations plus 96 color plate illustrations. Foreword by Javier Tusell. Translation from German to Spanish by Rosa Pilar Blanco.
The selection (by the way, very, very particular) made by the German editor on the 25 men who in one way or another left an indelible mark on history, is as follows:
Aristotle, Alexander the Great, C. Julius Caesar, Benedict of Nursia, Mohammed, Charlemagne, Dante, J. Gutenberg, Christopher Columbus, Nicholas Copernicus, Michelangelo, Martin Luther, Charles V, Miguel de Cervantes, W. Shakespeare, Louis XIV, J. S. Bach, Goya, Napoleon, Charles Darwin, Karl Marx, Thomas Alva Edison, Sigmund Freud, Mahatma Gandhi, Albert Einstein.
