Parejas de enamorados, jinetes sin cabeza y aldeanos que duermen siestas de décadas confluyen en un dÃptico que parece al mismo tiempo realismo mágico y terror costumbrista. En estos dos relatos, Sleepy Hollow, o La leyenda del jinete sin cabeza, y Rip van Winkle, se encuentra la simiente del llamado Gótico Americano, que convirtió a Washington Irving en el primer escritor de una literatura genuinamente estadounidense, porque toda nación recién creada necesita nuevas leyendas, nuevos mitos, nuevos sÃmbolos; en resumen, unas señas de identidad propias.
Couples in love, headless horsemen, and villagers come together in a diptych that to be both magical realism and terror. In these two stories, Sleepy Hollow, or The Legend of the Headless Horseman, and Rip van Winkle, is the seed of the so-called American Gothic, which made Washington Irving one of the first writers of American literature.
