Una de las piezas teatrales imprescindibles de Federico García Lorca.


Federico García Lorca dirigió La Barraca, experiencia teatral decisiva para la escena española. Desde 1918, cuando publicó su primer libro, hasta su muerte, no dejó nunca de componer versos y escribir teatro. Austral presenta en este volumen Bodas de sangre, ejemplo esencial de su obra dramática en el que construye una tragedia cargada de lirismo y de elementos simbólicos a partir de un hecho real, de una pequeña noticia del periódico. Escenifica, en prosa y en verso, la crónica llena de presagios de una pasión, de la lucha por una mujer que lleva hasta la muerte a los dos rivales.


Quien fuera director de la Real Academia Española, Fernando Lázaro Carreter, analiza en su Introducción la génesis de la tragedia y su posición en la obra de Lorca, desvelando su simbología y su significación última: Es la mujer la figura en que se anuda el hilo conductor de la tragedia: los hombres son simples contrapuntos, motivos externos de la pasión de las mujeres.


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


One of Federico García Lorca's essential theatrical pieces.


Federico García Lorca directed La Barraca, a pivotal theatrical experience for the Spanish stage. From 1918, when he published his first book, until his death, he never stopped composing poetry and writing plays. Austral presents in this volumeBlood Wedding an essential example of his dramatic work, where he constructs a tragedy filled with lyricism and symbolic elements based on a real event, a small newspaper article. He stages, in prose and verse, the foreboding chronicle of a passion, the struggle for a woman that leads two rivals to their deaths.


Fernando Lázaro Carreter, former director of the Royal Spanish Academy, analyzes in his Introduction the genesis of the tragedy and its place in Lorca's work, revealing its symbolism and ultimate significance: "It is the woman who ties the thread of the tragedy: the men are mere counterpoints, external motives of the women's passion".

About the Author
García Lorca, Federico: -

Federico García Lorca, hijo de un rico propietario y de una maestra, vivió una infancia rural a la que sumó una completa formación. Se trasladó a Madrid, donde se alojó en la Residencia de Estudiantes y conoció a sus compañeros de generación y a muchas figuras del panorama artístico. En este ambiente conoce las Vanguardias, pero su personal sensibilidad sobrepasa las modas y triunfa definitivamente con su emblemático Romancero gitano. Tras vivir una enriquecedora temporada en Cuba y Nueva York (el impacto de esta ciudad da lugar a Poeta en Nueva York), vuelve a España. Durante la República, dirige la compañía La Barraca, grupo teatral universitario con el que llevó el teatro clásico por todos los rincones de España. En 1933 visita Buenos Aires, donde sus dramas obtienen gran éxito. De regreso, Lorca, que es ya poeta de éxito, manifiesta públicamente sus ideas de izquierdas; este hecho lo pone en el punto de mira de los nacionales, que lo asesinan nada más estallar la guerra civil, dos meses después de terminar La casa de Bernarda Alba. Otras obras destacadas del autor son Poema del cante jondo, La zapatera prodigiosa, Bodas de sangre, Yerma, Doña Rosita la soltera o el lenguaje de las flores, Mariana Pineda y El público, todas ellas publicadas en Austral.




Federico García Lorca, son of a wealthy landowner and a teacher, spent a rural childhood complemented by a thorough education. He moved to Madrid, where he stayed at the Residencia de Estudiantes and met his generational peers along with many figures of the artistic scene. In this environment he encountered the Avant-garde, but his personal sensitivity surpassed fashions and triumphed definitively with his emblematic Gypsy Ballads. After living an enriching period in Cuba and New York (the impact of this city gave rise to Poet in New York), he returned to Spain. During the Republic, he directed the company La Barraca, a university theater group that brought classical theater to every corner of Spain. In 1933 he visited Buenos Aires, where his dramas achieved great success. Upon returning, Lorca, already a celebrated poet, publicly expressed his leftist ideas; this put him in the crosshairs of the Nationalists, who assassinated him at the outbreak of the Civil War, two months after finishing The House of Bernarda Alba. Other notable works by the author include Poem of the Deep Song, The Shoemaker's Prodigious Wife, Blood Wedding, Yerma, Doña Rosita the Spinster or The Language of the Flowers, Mariana Pineda, and The Public, all published in Austral.
