espanolEl caracter poetico de la novelistica de Gabriel Miro radica, en parte, en la singular utilizacion que hace de sus lecturas: en su «inspiracion libresca». Su biblioteca era, en opinion de Ernesto Gimenez Caballero (1928) «un autentico taller». La Biblia, una de sus lecturas fundamentales, es inagotable fuente de inspiracion. Motivos tomados del Libro de Job o del Cantar de los Cantares atraviesan toda su produccion literaria, desde La mujer de Ojeda (1901) hasta Anos y leguas (1928). Lo mas destacado es la recreacion de las ultimas horas de Jesucristo en Figuras de la Pasion del Senor, obra para la que, ademas de los Evangelios, utilizo una abundante literatura cientifica y filosofica, transformando, de manera sorprendente, un material tomado de estudios de «fria erudicion» en textos de intensa belleza. EnglishGabriel Miro was an exceptional reader and the use he makes of his reading is reflected in his novels. His personal library was in the words of Ernesto Gimenez Caballero (1928) a «real workshop». The Bible was a great source of his inspiration. Motifs taken from the Book of Job or the Song of Songs can be found throughout his literary works, from La mujer de Ojeda (1901) to Anos y leguas (1928). One of the most noteworthy is the description of the last few hours of Jesus in Figures of the Passion of Our Lord, which used not only texts from the New Testament but also a great number of scientific and literary literature transforming formal prose into texts of intense beauty.
