"Lorca completed his great 'rural trilogy' - three separate plays deeply rooted in Spanish country life and tradition - shortly before he was murdered by Nationalist sympathisers in 1936. Yerma, the second, was premiered in 1934, to great acclaim, despite an attempt to disrupt the performance. 'A tragic poem', passionate and lyrical, it explores universal themes of fertility and infertility in an intense, stylised and innovative drama." "This edition contains parallel English and Spanish texts, in addition to the commentary and notes."--BOOK JACKET.

Federico Garcia Lorca

Federico Garcia Lorca was a Spanish poet, playwright, and theatre director known for his distinctive lyrical style and exploration of themes such as love, death, and passion. Some of his most notable works include "Blood Wedding," "Yerma," and "The House of Bernarda Alba," which are considered masterpieces of Spanish literature. Lorca's use of surreal imagery, musical language, and intense emotions set him apart as one of the most important figures of the Spanish literary movement known as the Generation of '27. His work continues to inspire and influence writers and artists around the world. Lorca's most famous work is perhaps "Romancero Gitano" (Gypsy Ballads), a collection of poems that showcases his talent for blending traditional Spanish forms with modernist sensibilities. Lorca's tragic death during the Spanish Civil War in 1936 further solidified his status as a literary icon.
