Four war poets, Ian Gibson
In my opinion, Ian Gibson, with his usual historical narrative mastery for four poets we are introduced to victims of civil war that ravaged Spain between 36 and 39. Talk about the last years of Antonio Machado always loyal to the Republic and, therefore, democratic legitimacy, which in all honesty, she is writing for a divided and torn Spain who also destroyed himself. Talk about how dies at Collioure, with his mother, who pass away days later. Lorca speaks a little time before the outbreak of war had produced two magnificent works like Dona Rosita the Spinster and The House of Bernarda Alba in portraying the bourgeoisie more radical and extreme, it was the Granada. At the beginning of the uprising decide to move to Fuente Vaqueros with their parents, which cost him his life on August 36. In my opinion, that a man of both world as Lorca, and so influential to escape to Spain, his family decided to go with us to a poet who knows that human face or offered him as a victim, or the fascists had Granada Federico finish is his father and the rest of his family.
Juan Ramón Jiménez, always accompanied by Zenobia, has to live through the war and his loyalty to the Republic from exile. The Nobel arrives too late in his literary career and in the worst moments of his life by the death of Zenobia. In short, another poet marked by war. Miguel Hernández, poet warrior, dies ill, abandoned by everyone-even by some writers of his generation meanings, without ever budge.
to narrate the lives of four poets who were cut short their lives and literary production to remain faithful to democratic rule was meant by the Second Republic against the fascist uprising.
