Synopsis "La dama de las camelias (in Spanish)"

La dama de las camelias es la historia de un episodio de la propia vida de Alejandro Dumas hijo. Embellecida, más o menos fiel a la realidad, es un caso que le aconteció a él mismo con una conocida mundana parisiense, Marie Duplessis; una mujer joven y hermosa que con su sola presencia atraía la admiración de quienes la veían por primera vez y no sabían cuál era su profesión.

Esta obra, que conjuga todos los elementos del romanticismo, amor, traición, celos, pasión y muerte, fue un éxito 1. absoluto, que se acrecentó aún más cuando pudo representarse en escena una vez aplacados los rigores de la censura, que juzgaba el tema muy escabroso para la época.

Alexandre Dumas is one of the most prolific and popular authors from France. He was born in 1802 in the city of Villers-Cotterets, and soon moved to Paris to work as a secretary for the Duke of Orléans. There, he completed his education on his own and began to take an interest in writing.
He started by writing plays, and then moved on to poems and long stories. However, his real success did not come until 1844, the year he released the work that would catapult him to fame: The Three Musketeers. The serial publication of this novel brought him a huge sum of money, but it also meant countless hours of work, many collaborators, and the production of up to eighty installments to meet the growing public demand.
After the publication of The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo, Dumas amassed a great fortune. However, his hedonistic nature led him to squander all he had earned and he soon found himself forced to exile in Belgium to escape his French creditors.
The Count of Monte Cristo, the pinnacle of the author's narrative, is considered one of the greatest adventure novels of all time.
