Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Regarded by many as the finest poet of twentiethcentury Spain, Antonio Machado y Ruiz (18751939) is not well known outside the Spanishspeaking world. This volume will introduce him to AngloAmerican readers, enabling them to experience at first hand the subtle nuances of his verse. Some two hundred fifty poems in Spanish, drawn from Machados entire oeuvre, are accompanied on facing pages by sensitive and beautifully fluent translations which render the originals accessible to the mind and the ear.Alan S. Trueblood annotates the individual poems, placing them in context and illuminating their allusions and undertones. In addition, he provides a substantial biographical and critical Introduction. This gives an overview of Machados life, as a poet and teacher and wideranging commentator on cultural, political, and social affairs. (Forced into exile at the end of the Civil War, he crossed the Pyrenees on foot and died a month later.) The Introduction also discusses the qualities of Machados predominantly quiet and reflective verse, as well as the development of the thought of this major poet.
