A Critical Anthology of Spanish Verse
About this book
A Critical Anthology of Spanish Verse is an essential collection for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding and appreciation of Spanish poetry across centuries. This meticulously curated volume provides not only a rich selection of poems but also insightful commentary that sheds light on their themes, structure, and cultural significance. From medieval epics like Cantar de Mio Cid to modern lyrical masterpieces, the anthology traverses a vast literary landscape, offering readers a cohesive exploration of Spanish poetic traditions. By focusing on the intrinsic qualities of each work rather than exhaustive biographical or source-related details, this anthology invites readers to engage critically and meaningfully with the text.
The thoughtful organization of the book ensures accessibility for both seasoned scholars and general readers with a solid grasp of Spanish. The editor’s approach—modernizing texts where appropriate while preserving linguistic nuances—enhances the reader's experience without sacrificing historical authenticity. Exclusions, such as Spanish-American and dramatic verse, reflect a deliberate focus, ensuring the integrity and depth of the selections presented. Whether delving into the grandeur of long-form poetry or savoring the lyrical beauty of sonnets, this anthology celebrates the timeless art of Spanish verse and its enduring resonance.
This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1950.
