Więcej o książce

The homely, unpretentious style of these poems belies the undercurrents of conflicted identity so present in Lorca's time and our own. In their brilliant new translation Jane Duran and Gloria Garcia Lorca have been faithful to Lorca's work, searching out original meanings, avoiding overt interpretations, reproducing metaphors, so as to bring to an English-speaking reader the pure power of Lorca's poetry. This bilingual edition also includes revealing insights into the Romancero and the history of the Spanish ballad form by Andres Soria Olmedo; notes on the dedications by Manuel Fernandez Montesinos; the text of Lorca's own talk on his book; and an introduction to the problems and challenges faced by translators of Lorca, by Professor Christopher Maurer of Boston University.
