Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. La poesia de Lorca, encumbrada en su Romancero gitano, recorre paisajes, hurga en tradiciones y denuncia injusticias con la maestria de quien ha sabido utilizar la pluma como pocos, sin claudicar al paso del tiempo. Sin lugar a dudas el Romancero gitano no es solo el gran libro de poesia del canon lorquiano sino tambien una de las obras poeticas mas importantes de la cultura occidental, que ha convertido al poeta granadino en una de las figuras mas destacadas de nuestra literatura, junto a Quevedo, Gongora o Juan Ramon Jimenez. A lo largo de los dieciocho romances que conforman el libro, Lorca hace gala del simbolismo que tanto le caracteriza -la luna, el agua, el cuchillo, la sangre, su mundo gitano, el barco sobre la mar y el caballo en la montana- con el que ha fascinado, o casi hipnotizado, a generaciones de lectores de todo el mundo. Salvador Dali escribio.Federiquito, en el libro tuyo que me lo he llevado por esos sitios minerales de por aqui a leer, te he visto a ti, la bestiecita que eres, bestiecita erotica, con tu sexo y tus pequenos ojos de tu cuerpo, y tus pelos y tu miedo de la muerte, y tus ganas de que si te mueres se enteren todos los senores.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONFederico Garcia Lorca wrote the Gypsy Ballads between 1924 and 1927. When the book was published it caused a sensation in the literary world. Drawing on the traditional Spanish ballad form, Lorca described his Romancero Gitano as 'the poem of Andalucia.A book that hardly expresses visible Andalusia at all, but where hidden Andalucia trembles'. Seeking to relate the nature of his proud and troubled region of Spain, he drew on a traditional gypsy form; yet the homely, unpretentious style of these poems barely disguises the undercurrents of conflicted identity never far from Lorca's work.
