Résumé
During Miguel de Unamuno’s life time, his book The tragic sense of life was translated into seven languages. This allowed his translators to contact him to comment on the work as well as to share with him some problems involved. The epistolary preserved between Unamuno and his translators offers us an invaluable source of knowledge to understand better the genesis and scope of what, according to Unamuno, was «his major work». Thanks to the discovery of some unpublished letters, we can reconstruct the process of translation of The tragic sense of life whit all the events at the beginning of the 20th century taking place.
