Miguel de Unamuno

Miguel de Unamuno was a Spanish essayist, novelist, poet, and philosopher, born on September 29, 1864, in Bilbao, Spain. He was a prominent figure of the Generation of '98, a group of writers deeply concerned with Spain’s identity and its cultural and political future following the Spanish-American War. Unamuno’s work often grapples with existential themes, exploring the tension between reason and faith, individuality, and the collective experience of humanity. His rich literary landscape invites readers to ponder profound questions about existence and the human condition, making his writings both reflective and deeply personal.
