The late Romantic poet Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer is considered one of the first modern Spanish poets. His ‘Rimas’ (Rhymes) are celebrated for their sensitive, restrained and deeply subjective quality. Bécquer’s poetry tackles themes of love, disillusionment and loneliness, while exploring the mysteries of life and poetry. In contrast to the rhetorical and dramatic style of the Romantic period, Bécquer’s lyricism, in which assonance predominates, is simple and airy. The Delphi Poets Series offers readers the works of literature’s finest poets, with superior formatting. This volume presents Bécquer’s collected works, with related illustrations and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1) * Beautifully illustrated with images relating to Bécquer’s life and works * Concise introduction to Bécquer’s life and poetry * Images of how the poetry was first printed, giving your eReader a taste of the original texts * Multiple translations of the ‘Rimas’: Owen Innsly, 1882; Mason Carnes, 1891 * Includes the original Spanish texts, edited by Everett Ward Olmsted in 1909, with hyperlinked footnotes and a vocabulary glossary * Excellent formatting of the poems * Easily locate the poems you want to read * Also includes Bécquer’s seminal romantic and gothic legends * Features a bonus biography — discover Bécquer’s world CONTENTS: The Life and Poetry of Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer Brief Introduction: Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer (1891) by Mason Carnes From the Spanish of Gustavo Bécquer (1882) by Owen Innsly Poems of Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer Rendered into English Verse (1891) by Mason Carnes The Fiction Romantic Legends of Spain (1909) The Spanish Texts Legends, Tales and Poems (1909) by Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer The Biography Life of Bécquer (1907) by Everett Ward Olmsted Please visit www.delphiclassics.com to browse through our range of poetry titles or buy the entire Delphi Poets Series as a Super Set
