DESCRIPTION - Deep Song and Other Prose is the first collection in English translation of selected prose works by Federico Garcia Lorca (1898-1936). In his short life, Lorca produced an astonishing quantity of poems and plays but few essays. His creative powers were best stimulated by the immediate presence of an audience, and it was on the lecturer's platform where the bulk of his prose writings had their initial exposure rather than on the printed page he so mistrusted. Of the thirteen pieces included in this volume, only two (Holy Week in Granada and Sun and Shade) were written with publication in mind; two others are newspaper interviews (Conversation with Bagaria and The Life of Garcia Lorca, Poet); still two more are occasional addresses (A Talk about Theater and Greeting to the Crew of the San Sebastian Elcano). All the rest are lectures and poetry readings given in Spain and the Americas during the last fourteen years of Lorca's life. Among modern Spanish poets, Lorca was influenced most deeply by the folk arts of his native land. On Lullabies, Deep Song, and Play and Theory of the Duende are clear expressions of his concern with the primordial, irrational wellsprings of the creative spirit, while The Poetic Image of Don Luis G6ngora demonstrates his intense devotion to the Spanish classical tradition. The Elegy for Marfa Blanchard shows Lorca characteristically defending the late crippled artist against her enemiesjust as in his Gypsy Ballads and A Poet in New York he had spoken for Gypsies and Blacks. His two poetry readings from the latter collections are unsurpassed guides to these books, as indeed Deep Song and Other Prose is to Lorca's work generally. inventory #8417. Seller Inventory # z8417
