Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ballads and Songs of Spain The accompanying ballad represents a summons to arms supposed to have been received by the alcayde or commandant of some fortress in possession of the Christians - one of those grim strongholds poised on the lofty crags that border the fertile Vegas, or plains, of Granada or Malaga. These fortresses, the ruins of many of which may still be spied throughout the provinces of Andalusia, were, in the period preceding the siege of Granada, of vast importance to either conflicting power, as through their underlying passes alone could the Moors prosecute their forays into Christian territory, or the latter urge their convoys of provisions or trains of artillery to join the beleaguering armies of King Ferdinand.

Book Spanish Ballads  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Spanish Ballads Classic Reprint written by Le Strange and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-06-24 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spanish Ballads Professor fitzmaurice-kelly in his Clzapters on Spanish Literature has devoted the fourth of these lectures to the Romancero. Taking Lockhart's 'ncz'eat Spanish Ballads as a basis for his discourse, he gives references to the originals of the fifty-three ballads which Lockhart translated, commenting on these and some thirty others which Lockhart did not deal with. It had occurred to me that a useful compilation might be made by gathering together in Spanish all the ballads of Lockhart's series, and accordingly I wrote to Professor fitzmaurice-kelly to enquire whether, following on his Lecture aforesaid, he had not an intention of doing this. In reply he told me that his time was already taken up with other projects, adding that the matter might profitably be undertaken; and he has generously helped me with many references. When, however, I had more carefully read through the Spanish originals to which reference notes are given in the Lecture, I came to the conclusion that many of Lockhart's ballads, whatever might be their grace in English garb, were not worth re-printing in the Spanish, and therefore I decided to alter my plan, and with Professor Fitzmaurice - Kelly as a guide, to give the best of the ballads in the two chief collections published since Lockhart's time. Lockhart's transla tions are a good help to beginners who, when learning Spanish, take up the ballads for the first time: though I must confess in regardto their literary merit, com pared with the Spanish, I fail to agree with Lord Macaulay, who wrote in his Diary, February lgth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Folk Songs From the Spanish The words float through the window with the moonlight and the scent of orange-blossoms, fading gently away as the late passer goes farther on.the fields the young wheat, green be neath the smoky olive trees; above, the radiant sky of Andalusia, and the sun showering gold through the limpid air. In front of an inn which stands beside the dusty road just outside the town a girl with pinks in her hair is dancing segw'dz'llas. Near her an Arab eyed youth twangs a guitar. Her friends sit around in a half-circle, clap ping their hands to mark the measure of the dance. Ole! Ole! They cry, at intervals, in gay applause. Ou a table are half-empty glasses of agita dt'ente; yellow flowers bloom near the door of the little inn, a baby tumbles happily about on the brown earth, and a bird hops in a rough wooden cage. The girl's body, lithe and slender, sways alluringly to and fro, the sun flashes on her white teeth and lights a gleam in her sombre eyes. The guitar-playerwatches her gravely, his hand trembles, then he sings. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spanish and Italian Folk-Songs The original gipsy rhymes - some rude specimens of which may be found in Borrow's Gzprz'er of Spain - are in a Jargon of Spanish Rommany, unintelligible to most Spaniards; but although these last despise the abject and down-trodden Jitanos, their songs and dances have always found many admirers, among the Andalusians especially. Probably as a consequence of this, the gipsy singers and improvisatori seem, as far back as the end of the last century, to have adopted for their songs a form and dialect more comprehensible to their Spanish audiences. Among these they found pupils and imitators, who were the means of further intermingling the gipsy poetry with the Spanish.
