Federico García Lorca - El Romancero Gitano

Special edition with study by Christian De Paepe

El Romancero Gitano is one of the most significant lyrical creations of the 20th century. The culmination of Lorca's first aesthetic stage, the poet himself defines it as “the poem of Andalusia”, and calls it gypsy because “the gypsy is the highest, the deepest, the most aristocratic of my country, the most representative of its way and the one who keeps the ember, the blood, and the alphabet of Andalusian and universal truth.”

However, it is a book where the visible Andalusia is barely expressed, but where the unseen trembles: an anti-picturesque, anti-folkloric, anti-flamenco book, where the figures serve ancient backgrounds and where there is only one great and dark character like a summer sky: Pena.

This volume includes the edition by Christian De Paepe, recognized as one of the leading lorquistas, with a study of the aesthetics and structure of the Romancero and a detailed thematic and stylistic annotation. It also includes the general introduction by Esperanza Ortega, a documentary appendix, and commentary on the romances.
