Emilio Salgari [1] (Verona, August 21, 1862 - Turin, April 25, 1911) was an Italian writer and journalist. He wrote mainly adventure novels, set in various places such as Malaysia, the Caribbean Sea, the Indian jungle, desert and the African jungle, the western United States, the jungles of Australia and even the Arctic seas. He created characters that fueled the imagination of millions of readers. Perhaps the best known of his characters as the pirate Sandokan. In the Spanish-speaking countries, his work was particularly popular, at least until the seventies-eighties. Salgari Emilio was born in Verona on August 21, 1862 within a family of small merchants. In 1878 he began his studies at the Royal Naval Technical Institute "Paolo Sarpi" in Venice, but failed to win the title of captain of a large coastal trade. His experience as a sailor appears to be limited to learning a few trips in a school ship, and a trip back, probably as a passenger in Italy A merchant ship, which sailed for three months to the Adriatic, docking at the port of Brindisi. There is no evidence to undertake more trips, but the author himself says so in his autobiography, claiming that many of his characters are based on real people he met in his life as a seaman. Salgari himself was given the title of "master" and even signed with him some of his works. The first publication was the short story Salgari I Selvaggi della Papua, which was serialized in the newspaper La Valigia from Milan July 1883. Also in 1883 began in the newspaper La Nuova Arena Verona publishing his first novel, Tay-See, which would then light as a separate volume with the title of the pink-Dong Giang. In October the same year began publishing The Tiger of Malaysia, the first version of the novel Sandokan opening cycle, which then would edit the title of Mompracem tigers, with some changes. The first novel was published independently of the Mahdi's favorite in 1887. Thanks to the success of his works, took a job as an editor at La Nuova Arena fixed he held until 1893. At that time there was a curious incident offended by being called "boy" in an article by journalist Giuseppe Biasioli, challenged him to a duel. As a result, had to be hospitalized Biasioli Salgari and spent six months in jail. In 1889 he committed suicide Salgari's father, the first of an impressive string of suicides family that includes the writer's own (1911), that of his son Romero (1931) and his other son Omar (1963). In January 1892 he married the actress Ida Peruzzi (which was always called, affectionately, "Aida" as the heroine of Verdi). That same year was the first couple's daughter, Fatima, which was followed by three men, Nadir (1894), Romero (1898) and Omar (1900). Also in 1892 the writer, he moved to Turin, where he worked for the publisher Speirani specializing in juvenile novels. In 1898 the editor Salgari Donath convinced that she moved to Genoa, where he befriended the most prominent would be the illustrator of his work, Giuseppe "Pipein" Gamba. In 1900 he returned to Turin. The family's economic circumstances were becoming increasingly difficult, despite the tireless work of Salgari to maintain a respectable bourgeois propriety. In 1907 his contract with Donath stopped and went to work for the publisher Bemporad, for which he wrote until his death in 1911, a total of nineteen novels. His success with the young audience grew, reaching some of his novels to achieve runs of 100,000 copies. However, his mental imbalance and the madness of his wife, [2] that had to be admitted to the psychiatric Collegno, near Turin, led him to suicide. After a failed attempt in 1909 took his life, opening the belly with a knife according to the Japanese ritual seppuku, the April 25, 1911. He left three letters written, directed towards their children, their publishers and newspaper editors of Turin. The letter to his publishers are sufficiently eloquent. To you, that you have enriched my skin, keeping me and my family in a continuous semimiseria or worse, I ask only in return for the profits that you have provided, I ocupéis of my funeral expenses. I greet you break the pen. Emilio Salgari. Throughout his prolific writing career, Salgari wrote, according to his biographer Felice Pozzo, eighty-four novels and a number of short stories impossible to determine. Most are adventure novels set in exotic places, but also cultivated science fiction, the atypical 2000 novel The Wonders (1907). In Spain, many of the novels were published by Saturnino Calleja and subsequently divided into two volumes Gahe with different titles to the originals. For example: Le due Tigri was divided into two parts, which is called The Stranglers and The two rivals. The protagonist of this series of 11 novels, the most extensive Salgari, is the pirate Sandokan, called "the Tiger of Malaysia", a prince of Borneo dispossessed of his throne by British colonialism (it is noteworthy that, at the same time that British adventure narrative glorifies clear its colonialist policy-see, for example, the work of H. Rider Haggard-Salgari protagonist of his novels made an anti-colonial resistance). The British, and especially the so-called "white Rajah" of Sarawak in Borneo, James Brooke, a character who actually existed, are the main enemies of the hero, who has the support of other characters, like his fraternal friend, Portuguese Yáñez or Sambigliong. The series blends two story lines: the starring Sandokan and Yanez, and another that begins in India, starring Indian Tremal-Naik and mahrato Kammamuri (The mysteries of the jungle black) in their fight against the evil thugs, worshipers of the goddess Kali. Both lines converge in the novel The Pirates of Malaysia, making Kammamuri Tremal-Naik and great friends and supporters unconditional Sandokan and Yanez. The main female character is the beloved series Sandokan, the English Lady Mariana Guillonk, called the "Pearl of Labuan," whose tragic end marks the hero's later life. More luck in their affairs has Yanez, who becomes Prince Consort of Assam through his marriage with mahrajaní Surama. The order of publication of titles not match exactly with the order argument. The last two novels in the series were published after the author's death. This cycle consists of five novels.

The main character is the black pearl earrings white gold Corsair, Emilio di Roccabruna, Lord of Ventimiglia, an Italian nobleman who has adopted the method of piracy as revenge against the flamenco Wan Guld, governor of Maracaibo, which had killed one of his brothers.
