Yerma by Federico García Lorca ( Book )
157 editions published between 1938 and 2013 in 8 languages and held by 790 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Yerma se úbica en el entorno de un sistema patriarcal, en la españa de los tiempos previos a la Guerra Civil. La transgresión de Federico García Lorca consistió justamente en despabilar del sueño de siglos a los españoles que sufrían en silencio y que dejaban hacer, y en particular a las mujeres. A Lorca le interesaba en esta obra profundizar en 'un alma en la que se cebó el Destino señalándola para víctima de lo infecundo.' Obedecer, callar y encerrarse son las acciones que arman la cadena que enlaza rítmicamente a las mujeres pero que también cerca la vida trágica de los hombres, seres espiritualmente empobrecidos que se hunden en la tierra en la que nacieron." --P. [4] of cover

Selected verse by Federico García Lorca ( Book )
8 editions published between 1994 and 1996 in English and Spanish and held by 729 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
The work of Federico Garcia Lorca, Spain's greatest modern poet, has long been admired for its emotional intensity and metaphorical brilliance. Few poets take us more directly and memorably to what Lorca described as "the dark root of the scream", the terrain of the duende, where inspiration delivers a new poetic reality and "intelligence" discovers its limitations. For many years, until the recent publication of FSG's Collected Poems, English readers' view of Lorca has been determined by a few well-known books - The Divan at Tamarit, Poet in New York, The Gypsy Ballads - and by a lamentably small number of poems. Now this Selected Verse, the most complete paperback anthology available in English, draws on FSG's two-volume Poetical Works, providing authoritative versions by outstanding poets and translators: Francisco Aragon, Catherine Brown, Cola Franzen, Will Kirkland, William Bryant Logan, Jerome Rothenberg, Greg Simon, Alan S. Trueblood, John K. Walsh, and Steven F. White. In this bilingual edition, Lorca's poetic range comes clearly into view, from the playful Suites and stylized evocations of Andalusia to the utter gravity and mystery of the final elegies, confirming his stature as one of our century's finest poets

102 editions published between 1900 and 1998 in Spanish and Undetermined and held by 620 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Three plays : Blood wedding, Yerma, The house of Bernarda Alba by Federico García Lorca ( Book )
10 editions published between 1992 and 2001 in English and held by 589 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
In these three plays, Garcí a Lorca's acknowledged masterpieces, he searched for a contemporary mode of tragedy and reminded his audience that dramatic poetry-or poetic drama-depends less on formal convention that on an elemental, radical outlook on human life. His images are beautiful and exact, but until now no translator had ever been able to make his characters speak unaffectedly on the American stage. Michael Dewell of the National Repertory Theatre and Carmen Zapata of the Bilingual Foundation of the Arts have created these versions expressly for the stage. The result, both performable and readable, has been thoroughly revised for this edition, which is introduced by Christopher Maurer, general editor of the "Complete Poetical Works of Garcí a Lorca."

Ancient voices of children : [a cycle of songs on texts by García Lorca] : soprano, boy soprano, oboe, mandolin, harp, electric piano, percussion by George Crumb ( )

Poet in New York by Federico García Lorca ( Book )
21 editions published between 1988 and 2013 in 3 languages and held by 525 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Written while García Lorca was a student at Columbia University in 1929-30, Poet in New York is one of those rare books that have changed the direction of poetry in both Spain and the Americas. Christopher Maurer has revised this vital work, using previously unavailable or untranslated material. The book includes a prose poem missing from previous editions, as well as extensive notes and letters, revised versions of all the poems, an interpretive lecture by Lorca himself. --Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This symphonic narrative takes Lorca beyond the gypsy-folk lyrics of his early work, and surreally depicts the spiritual emptiness of the urban landscape and the existential loneliness of the poet lost in the materialist city. --Kirkus Reviews. This is a superb translation. Simon and White have succeeded so well that I can't imagine anyone trying to improve on what they've done. --Mark Strand. It does what one wants a translation to do: make the original really come alive in the second language. --W.S. Merwin
