Poema Del Cante Jondo - Romancero Gitano (conferencias Y Poemas)

Federico Garcia Lorca is the most popular and influential poet of the XXth Century Spanish literatures, and of his works, the poems gathered in -Poema del cante jondo- and -Romancero gitano- volumes are indeed the most popular.But Garcia Lorca was not only a poet but also displayed an attractive personality that made him a magnetic lecturer. Proof of this is the success that surrounded the many lectures and public readings he gave in his regrettably short life.Of these lectures-readings we picked two: -Historical and artistic importance of the andalusian primitive song, known as cante jondo-, originally read at the Centro Artistico de Granada in 1922, and those on his -Romancero gitano-, read in Granada, Madrid and during his South American tour.In these texts Garcia Lorca clearly exposes his own aesthetic principles, thus becoming the best introduction to his most famous poems.
