Hardback. Condition: Good. Allen Josephs paints a portrait of life in and around the world's most prestigious bullrings, demonstrating how and why the ""corrida"" (or bullfight) remains a sacred and integral part of Hispanic culture. Joseph's unromanticized account is the result of four seasons spent on the corridor circuit with Cesar Rincon, the most esteemed matador in Colombia. Following Rincon through Spain, France and South America, through the highs and lows of his career, Josephs develops a close and privileged relationship with him and is able to reveal an insider's view of the bullfighter's life and of the Fiesta Brava (""Wild Feast"") itself, never seen by the spectator. From his boyhood in the slums of Bogota to his extraordinary breakthrough 1991 season in Madrid, Rincon is challenged not only by the bull, but by the circumstances of his life. A national hero in his native Colombia, he is nevertheless the subject of frequent prejudice as a non-Spanish mataodor. Recreating the atmosphere of life on the road, Josephs details all-night drives across the Spanish countryside, meals in roadside cafes and conversations with fellow aficionados and taurine writers. He conveys not only an understanding of the art of bullfighting, but also an appreciation of Spanish culture, society and its psychology and traditions. Drawing on over 30 years of personal participation in the culture of the Spanish Fiesta Brave, Josephs brings an intimate knowledge of taurine technique to his account.…

Condition: Good. Federico Garcia Lorca is the most popular and influential poet of the XXth Century Spanish literatures, and of his works, the poems gathered in Poema del cante jondo and Romancero gitano volumes are indeed the most popular. But Garcia Lorca was not only a poet but also displayed an attractive personality that made him a magnetic lecturer. Proof of this is the success that surrounded the many lectures and public readings he gave in his regrettably short life. Of these lectures-readings we picked two: Historical and artistic importance of the andalusian primitive song, known as cante jondo, originally read at the Centro Artistico de Granada in 1922, and those on his Romancero gitano, read in Granada, Madrid and during his South American tour. In these texts Garcia Lorca clearly exposes his own aesthetic principles, thus becoming the best introduction to his most famous poems. Mauro Caceres (illustrator).…
