Reseña del libro "Old Christmas (en Inglés)"
"Old Christmas" is a collection of essays and short stories written by Washington Irving, a renowned American author best known for his works like "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" and "Rip Van Winkle." Published in 1820, "Old Christmas" offers a charming and nostalgic glimpse into the traditions and celebrations of the holiday season in England during the early 19th century. The book is a celebration of the old English Christmas customs that were gradually fading away due to the industrialization and modernization of the time. In "Old Christmas," Washington Irving vividly describes the warmth and conviviality of the holiday season, drawing on his own experiences during a visit to England. He paints a picture of cozy gatherings by the hearth, feasting, storytelling, and various festive activities that characterized the traditional Christmas celebrations of the past. One of the most famous stories within "Old Christmas" is "Christmas Day," in which Irving recounts his visit to Bracebridge Hall, a manor in the English countryside. There, he is treated to a series of Christmas traditions that seem to be suspended in time, capturing the essence of a bygone era's holiday spirit. These stories are not just simple descriptions but are infused with Irving's trademark wit and storytelling prowess. "Old Christmas" is often praised for its evocative and romantic portrayal of a traditional English Christmas, and it played a significant role in popularizing many customs associated with the holiday, such as the Yule log and the Christmas tree. It helped to revive interest in and appreciation for the rich cultural heritage of Christmas traditions that had been waning at the time. Overall, "Old Christmas" by Washington Irving is a delightful and heartwarming collection that celebrates the magic and nostalgia of the holiday season, offering readers a captivating journey into the past and the enduring traditions that make Christmas a special time of year.
