Un apasionante viaje a través del tiempo que nos desvela el alma de Madrid
Un apasionante viaje a través del tiempo, desde el Mayrit musulmán hasta la modernidad del siglo XXI, nos desvela el alma de la ciudad de Madrid, describe las transformaciones del espacio urbano y analiza los misterios que se ocultan tras la génesis de algunos de sus edificios más representativos.
La Historia secreta de Madrid es una suerte de «guía de autor», un itinerario histórico que nos ofrece las claves para entender este espacio que comienza a definirse con murallas y arrabales medievales de trazado irregular, atraviesa los siglos cargado de conventos, hospitales, mercados y palacios, y se acerca a la modernidad con amplias avenidas, áreas residenciales y barrios obreros, para culminar en las peculiares ―con frecuencia chocantes― intervenciones arquitectónicas de nuestros días.
Leyendas y milagros, anécdotas que protagonizan personajes variopintos, explicaciones simbólicas que conviven con planeamientos representativos del espíritu de racionalidad aplicado al urbanismo… Todo ello está presente en este libro, un recorrido muy personal por la ciudad, que nos permite entender cómo el devenir histórico, la organización administrativa y hasta las desventuras de gobernantes y ciudadanos ―en definitiva, las transformaciones de la sociedad, la política y la economía― tienen su reflejo inmediato en la evolución urbanística y el nacimiento de grandes empresas arquitectónicas.
