Bøger af Antonio Machado

-Este audiolibro está narrado en castellano.Los poemas que integran Soledades, fueron escritos y reescritos por Antonio Machado en varias ocasiones hasta que llegaron a ser publicados cuando el poeta se hizo cargo de la plaza de catedrático de lengua francesa en un instituto en la ciudad castellana de Soria. Desde el paso del tiempo y la pérdida de la juventud que escuchamos en las estrofas de "El viajero", hasta la mágica descripción alegre pero sobria de un paisaje castellano en el que la naturaleza va a jugar un papel decisivo en "Orillas del Duero", para llegar a los niños cantando mientras juegan no siendo sus canciones otra cosa más que sus sueños, en "Los cantos de los niños", en ésta obra el poeta nos da su visión de la vida. Antonio Machado reconocido autor Andaluz nacido en Sevilla en 1875, es reconocido como el autor más importante de la generación del 98. Graduado de la institución libre de enseñanza de Madrid, Machado vivió una juventud bohemia entre Francia y España antes de las repercusiones creadas por la guerra civil Española.

Man forstår, hvad Poul Borum hentydede til i sin nu klassiske oversigtsbog over den internationale lyrik, Poetisk modernisme, da han om Antonio Machado (1875-1939) skrev: “Oprigtigt, desillusioneret, intimt, ofte udnytter han folkepoesiens mollstemte rigdomme.” Machado er én af den tidlige modernismes vigtigste stemmer og han har sat et uafrysteligt præg på lyrikken i de to første årtier af 1900-tallet, som del af den såkaldte 98-generation der bl.a. banede vejen for Federico García Lorcas poesi.Bogen rummer et fyldigt udvalg af Antonio Machados forfatterskab, med to digtsamlinger så rigt repræsenteret, at man har en tydelig fornemmelse af begge værker. Det er Gorm Rasmussen der har udvalgt og oversat – og som også har forsynet bogen med et fyldigt forord. Samme oversætter har tidligere, også for første gang på dansk, præsenteret nicaraguanske Rubén Darío – den mest solgte af alle spansksprogede digtere overhovedet.Ikke alene får vi nu for første gang på dansk en antologi af den store spanske digter, Antonio Machado, men tillige af hans jævnaldrende bror, Manuel (1874-1947). 50 sider i det store udvalg er tilegnet sidstnævntes digtning. Den er også præget af modernismens dybe symbolsprog, men knap så sprælsk i sin tone, strengere, men alligevel dybt poetisk:

Antonio Machado is, without a doubt, the father of modern Spanish lyric poetry: a bridge that stretches between Becquer, Ruben Dario and the generation of Jimenez, Lorca, Alberti, Guillen and Aleixandre. Born in Seville in 1875, he lived a reticent life as a poet and schoolmaster; he died a refugee in France after escaping from Franco's new Spain.

A thoroughly edited text of one of 20th-century Spain's most famous volumes of poetry. An introduction offers a commentary on Machado's themes, techniques and metaphysical manner, examines the various influences on his work and traces the critical phases in his poetic development.

This edition of Antonio Machado's work offers a complete revision of the interpretations advanced by critics on the first version of Soledades (1903). Based on Machado's original edition it will be the only reliable text on the market of this work, the very embodiment of Spanish modernism. It will offer, as well as the text, a substantial analysis of the changes made for the second edition of 1907 that reveal the progressive influence of Modernismo on Machado's conceptionsUsing new theoretical models, the editor has been able to tell us more about Machado's poetic practice, his evolution as a poet and, consequently, more about the development of Symbolism in Spain than has previously been possible.The text will be useful to specialists of Machado and the period (18901910) and to postgraduates and final-year students working on the period.
