Juan Manuel de Prada - Leonardo Castellani - Sobrevivir intelectualmente en el siglo XXI

Surviving intellectually in the 21st century has become a challenge. To address this challenge, Juan Manuel de Prada, one of the most widely read Spanish writers, offers some advice: read the work of Father Leonardo Castellani. For this reason, the Spanish publisher LibrosLibres has just published How to Survive Intellectually in the 21st Century, a selection of articles by the Argentine priest, written by de Prada, with a prologue and annotations by himself. Castellani's writings have been grouped into five parts: "Politics First," "Visions of Spain," "The Western Canon," "Orthodoxy," "The Educational Drama," and "Let's Tell the Truth." This edition represents a literary event in Spain, where the author's work had previously been unheard of. ZENIT spoke about this topic with de Prada, who in recent years has been creating a buzz around Castellani by continually quoting him in his widely read articles in the press.
