Balada de la cárcel de Reading
by Oscar Wilde
'Balada de la cárcel de Reading' Summary
La balada se centra en un hombre condenado a muerte en la prisión de Reading, quien se enfrenta a su destino con una mezcla de resignación y rebelión. El poema examina el sufrimiento del hombre, su aislamiento, su nostalgia por el mundo exterior y su lucha por encontrar un significado en su situación. La balada describe la vida diaria en la prisión, la brutalidad de las reglas, el silencio y la soledad que impregnaban el ambiente. Wilde, a través de la voz del hombre condenado, refleja su propio dolor y arrepentimiento por sus decisiones y por el impacto que tuvo en las personas que lo amaban. En la balada, la prisión se convierte en un símbolo de la soledad humana, de la crueldad de la justicia y de la fragilidad de la vida. A su vez, se puede interpretar como una crítica al sistema judicial y al sistema social de la época, que condenaba severamente la homosexualidad. La balada se caracteriza por su ritmo melancólico, sus imágenes conmovedoras y su lenguaje simbólico que evoca la desesperación y la angustia del alma humana.Book Details
