Vencedor y para vencer. Blasco Ibáñez y Los cuatro jinetes del Apocalipsis: de la novela al cine
Abstract
In his search for an attractive romantic subject, which could provide him with a quick profit after he had dismissed his project of writing a serial novel on the European War, Vicente Blasco Ibáñez chronicled about it in installments following the events. In 1916, the year of its publication, The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse was deemed a pro-allies anti-German libel. The unpredictable success of its English translation in 1918 gave way to a film ‒shot in 1921 within the Hollywood studio system‒ that established Rudolph Valentino to stardom.Downloads
