MANUEL ALTOLAGUIRRE. FEDERICO GARCIA LORCA, DRAMATIC POET (Introduction, translation from Spanish, preparation of the text, and comments by Rafael Carrión Arias)
Journal Title: Studia Litterarum - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 3
Abstract
Several materials written by international anti-fascist authors have been recently found in the archives of the A. M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow. Among them, there is a short, hitherto unknown and unpublished essay on Lorca’s dramatic art written in 1937 by Manuel Altolaguirre, a Spanish poet and editor belonging to the Generation of ‘27. A thorough analysis allowed me identify that the essay was published in 1937 and suggest that Altolaguirre wrote two versions of the same text addressed to Spanish and Soviet audience accordingly. This article introduces the essay and its author in Russia for the frst time.
