Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antonio Machado, a school teacher and philosopher and one of Spain's foremost poets of the twentieth century, writes of the mountains, the skies, the farms and the sentiments of his homeland clearly and without narcissism: "Just as before, I'm interested/in water held in;/ but now water in the living/rock of my chest." "Machado has vowed not to soar too much; he wants to 'go down to the hells' or stick to the ordinary," Robert Bly writes in his introduction. He brings to the ordinary—to time, to landscape and stony earth, to bean fields and cities, to events and dreams—magical sound that conveys order, penetrating sight and attention. "The poems written while we are awake&…are more original and more beautiful, and sometimes more wild than those made from dreams," Machado said. In the newspapers before and during the Spanish Civil War, he wrote of political and moral issues, and, in 1939, fled from Franco's army into the Pyrenees, dying in exile a month later. When in 1966 a bronze bust of Machado was to be unveiled in a town here he had taught school, thousands of people came in pilgrimage only to find the Civil Guard with clubs and submachine guns blocking their way. This selection of Machado's poetry, beautifully translated by Bly, begins with the Spanish master's first book, Times Alone, Passageways in the House, and Other Poems (1903), and follows his work to the poems published after his death: Poems from the Civil War (written during 1936 – 1939).

Book excerpt: La poesía completa de Antonio Machado, en una nueva edición de Víctor Fernández, con numerosos inéditos y variantes. La mayoría de las ediciones de las poesías completas de Machado se basan en la que dejó el autor en los años treinta, sin incorporar muchos inéditos. La nuestra, en cambio, aporta composiciones aparecidas en la prensa de los años veinte que nunca se recogieron en libros, así como inéditos conservados en manuscritos que solo han circulado en publicaciones especializadas. Nadie ha recopilado anteriormente estos materiales, que fueron apareciendo en los últimos treinta años, de manera que la edición de Debolsillo renovará considerablemente el conocimiento que se tiene hoy de la obrade Machado, con una introducción y notas que ponen en perspectiva la importancia de este clásico para el público actual. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The Complete Poetry by Antonio Machado, now in a new edition by Víctor Fernández, with many unpublished poems and variations. Most of the editions of Machado’s poetry are based on the one left by the author in the 1930s, with a few unpublished poems; but this one includes creations that appeared in the press of the 1920s and that were never compiled in books, as well as unpublished poems preserved in manuscripts that have only circulated in specialized publications. Nobody has previously compiled these materials that appeared over the last thirty years. Therefore, the Debolsillo edition will considerably renew today’s knowledge of Machado's work, with the plus of an introduction and notes that will put the importance of this classic into perspective for today’s public.

Download or read book Six Masters of the Spanish Sonnet written by Willis Barnstone and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With poems selected and translated by one of the preeminent translators of our day, this bilingual collection of 112 sonnets by six Spanish-language masters of the form ranges in time from the seventeenth to the twentieth centuries and includes the works of poets from Spanish America as well as poets native to Spain. Willis Barnstone's selection of sonnets and the extensive historical and biographical background he supplies serve as a compelling survey of Spanish-language poetry that should be of interest both to lovers of poetry in general and to scholars of Spanish-language literature in particular. Following an introductory examination of the arrival of the sonnet in Spain and of that nation's poetry up to Francisco de Quevedo, Barnstone takes up his six masters in chronological turn, preceding each with an essay that not only presents the sonneteer under discussion but also continues the carefully delineated history of Spanish-language poetry. Consistently engaging and informative and never dull or pedantic, these essays stand alone as appreciations--in the finest sense of that word--of some of the greatest poets ever to write. It is, however, Barnstone's subtle, musical, clear, and concise translations that form the heart of this collection. As Barnstone himself says, "In many ways all my life has been some kind of preparation for this volume."
