Zaragoza

by Benito Pérez Galdós

“Zaragoza” narra la épica defensa de la ciudad de Zaragoza contra el ejército francés durante la Guerra de la Independencia Española. Galdós, a través de la historia de Gabriel de Araceli, un joven preso en manos francesas, explora el valor y la resistencia del pueblo español frente a la ocupación. La novela describe la batalla con gran detalle, mostrando las dificultades y la crueldad de la guerra, pero también la valentía y la unidad de los defensores. La lucha por la libertad y la independencia de España se entrelaza con el amor de Gabriel por Inés, una mujer a quien la guerra ha separado de él. Galdós expone la tragedia de la guerra y sus consecuencias personales en la vida de los individuos, mientras celebra la resistencia y el espíritu de lucha del pueblo español.
