Juan Ramon Jimenez (1881-1958) was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1956, yet his work remains far less well-known in the English-speaking world than it deserves. Jimenez was a prolific writer - his collected verse fills twenty volumes - and his early poems were first published whilst still in his teens. During the early twentieth century Jimenez wrote and published voraciously and was very active within Spanish-speaking literary circles. In 1939, he left Spain for America, eventually settling in Puerto Rica until his death in 1958. It is difficult to hang a label on Jimenez' work, for his influences were many and his output vast. These selected poems, published here in English and the original Spanish, give the reader a chance to explore this remarkable talent.
A wide-ranging, accessible reference for students of Spanish or Spanish American literature covering fiction, poetry, drama, anonymous classics, and more. In Dictionary of Spanish Literature, Maxim Newmark presents a concise yet informative overview of significant authors and works in Spanish literature, as well as important topics and terminology. Outstanding Spanish literary critics, the major movements, schools, genres, and scholarly journals are also included. An essential resource for any Spanish literature scholar, this volume provides an expansive overview of the topic, spanning both centuries and continents.
Platero and I, written by Juan Ram=n JimTnez, 1956 winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature, has been translated into the main languages of Western Europe and even into Hebrew. As Don Quixote is a great Spanish classic of the Golden Age, Platero and I has become a classic of the twentieth century. It is known as the 'Andalusian elegy' and is centred on the town of Moguer and its surrounding countryside. It follows the journey of the author and his donkey Platero. Like Dostoyevsky in his book The Idiot the donkey's braying inspires and captures the author. The book is not only for children but for adults as well, evoking for us memories of our childhood years. As with Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland, this is an allegory of the deepest human emotions and thoughts. Throughout the narrative Juan Ram=n speaks about Man and his world, dreaming of a better world and a brighter dawn. --Book Jacket.
