Book excerpt: “Beautifully lyric . . . [Lawrence Thornton’s] prose is finely honed and his touch sure.”—Chicago Tribune The year is 1936. The tide of fascism is overwhelming Europe. In Spain the Guardia Civil wages war on the citizens. Spanish-German novelist Joaquín Wolf leaves his adopted home in Paris for a short visit to Spain, where he will spend an evening that will change his life. For there he meets the great Spanish poet Federico García Lorca and in two brief hours they forge a close friendship. Within days Lorca is dead, executed by the civil guard, an event that sets Wolf on an irrevocable course as he joins the struggle against Franco. Wounded, Wolf returns to France to find German fascism threatening the city he loves. Banding together with a fiercely political group of writers named the Lorca Club, he again becomes a soldier of the resistance—this time using his most potent ammunition: words. Through the Lorca Club he meets Ursula Krieger, another exiled Berliner living in Paris, a survivor not only of war but of the bloodless horrors of postwar life. Though the scars of her past keep her from reaching out to him, Wolf’s quiet, steadfast love vanquishes shame and pain. And while Lorca taught Wolf what must be fought against, even to the death, it is Ursula who teaches him what is worth fighting—and living—for.

Download or read book First Book of Gypsy Ballads written by Federico Garcia Lorca and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-14 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepare to be mesmerized by the genius of Federico García Lorca as he paints for us with poetry an almost surreal tableau of humanity and inhumanity. Lorca described his poetic study of human nature as an intricate 'retablo' of southern Spain. On the surface it depicts the daily struggles of a marginalized people, but beneath the surface there is so much more. In these eighteen poems Lorca illustrates for us with words and lyrical incantations the daily interactions of the oppressors and the oppressed. Here we have on display the seven deadly sins (and three last things!) that Hieronymus Bosch explored hundreds of years earlier with oil paint. You will witness the lust (Luxuria) of The Cheatin' Wife and her gypsy lover; and the dark sorrow (Tristitia) of the loveless Soledad Montoya, the abandoned girl of the Dreamwalking Ballad, and the conflicted Gypsy Nun. You will be assaulted by the greed (Avaritia) of the Sons of Benamejí as they murder a flamboyant gypsy for his shoes and jewelry, and the wrath (Ira) of knife-wielding rival gangs as they skirmish and kill each other for nothing but pride (Superbia). Lorca then saves his best for the Spanish Civil Guard, symbol of ignorance, brute power, and police oppression as he rails against their sloth (Acedia), gluttony (Gula), and vanity (Vanagloria) while they terrorize the peasants of the Andalusian countryside with their guns and raze whole villages in their fury. Lorca knew what might come--he was a marked man--but he did not flinch or pull his punches. Saints and sinners swirl 'round and 'round and 'round midst wind and water under an omnipresent Gypsy Moon in these songs of seduction and sobriety. What does it all mean? The poet doesn't say, but rather leaves it to us to ponder and find application in our own lives.

Book Reflections on Lorca s Private Mythology

Download or read book Reflections on Lorca s Private Mythology written by Beth Wellington and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1993 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Federico García Lorca's autobiographical play, Once Five Years Pass deals directly with the discovery of his homosexual identity. While themes of sterility, desire, repression and death are central to this work, these themes are masked by the surrealistic language and plasticity that characterized his experimental theatre. Later, in his more traditional rural plays, Blood Wedding, Yerma, and The House of Bernarda Alba, Lorca sought to examine, at a safer distance, the themes elaborated in Once Five Years Pass. To this end, he removed himself from the center of the drama, creating a series of rural plays featuring women as the protagonists. An examination of the symbolic content in Blood Wedding, Yerma and The House of Bernarda Alba, which is more accessible in these traditionally structured works, supplies the key to the interpretation of Lorca's «unperformable» play.
