Description

Celia en el colegio ("Celia at the school" or "Celia at school") is the second in the series of Celia novels by Elena Fortún, first published in 1932 according to records.  Considered classics of Spanish literature, the books told the stories of a little girl named Celia living in Spain during the 1930s.  In this second book, Celia was sent to a convent, for her parents found her a handful, and facing numerous financial problems at home, they had trouble looking after Celia and keeping her out of mischief.  The books were largely popular in the years following their publication, and were enjoyed by both children and adults.  Celia's many adventures and misadventures, as well as her mischievous character appealed to children, while at the same time, older readers were able to pick up references to a changing and growing nation hidden behind Celia's childlike fantasy world.  Most prints of the first books featured a large variety of black and white illustrations by Molina Gallent, some of which were later featured in the opening credits of the TV-series from Televisión Española.  Other prints and re-issues featured illustrations from other artists such as Asun Balzola.In 1992, Spanish film director José Luis Borau adapted the series into a six-episode TV series simply entitled Celia. The Feminist Encyclopedia of Spanish Literature: N-Z, Janet Perez, Greenwood Publishing, 2002, page 572  In it, child actress Cristina Cruz Mínguez played the title role of Celia, while Ana Duato (Médico de familia, 1995) and Pedro Díez del Corral played her parents.  The series, like the books, found great success originally, but eventually that success faded and today the series is not very well known.  "En el colegio" was the title of the fourth episode in the series and the first to be adapted from the second book, Celia en el colegio.
