La obra más importante de este genial periodista estadounidense.Nacido en 1842 en Ohio, y desaparecido misteriosamente en México hacia 1913, Bierce fue un escritor ácido, cÃnico, desenfadado e inteligente. Nada escapó de su original pluma, ni las instituciones de su paÃs ni el feminismo. Este diccionario se presenta hoy en una edición revisada y ampliada con más de 800 nuevas palabras. Cada una de sus definiciones supone un instante de regocijo para el lector. Un libro para tener siempre a mano y leer cada noche. Ambrose Gwinett Bierce nacido en Ohio Estados Unidos, 24 de junio de 1842fue un editorialista, periodista, escritor y satÃrico estadounidense. Escribió el cuento An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge (Una ocurrencia en Owl Creek Bridge) y compiló el léxico satÃrico, el Diccionario del Diablo. Su vehemencia como crÃtico y su visión sardónica de la naturaleza humana que informó su trabajo le ganó el apodo de Bitter Bierce (El amargo Bierce). Bierce empleó un estilo distintivo de escritura, especialmente en sus historias. Su estilo a menudo abarca un comienzo abrupto, imágenes oscuras, vagas referencias al tiempo, descripciones limitadas, eventos imposibles y el tema de la guerra. En 1913, Bierce viajó a México para adquirir experiencia de primera mano de la Revolución mexicana. Se rumoreaba que viajaba con tropas rebeldes, y no se volvió a ver., se cree que murió en Chihuahua, probablemente en 1914
