La muerte física y psicológica en obras poéticas de Federico García Lorca.

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

La muerte es un tema omnipresente en la obra del poeta español, Federico García Lorca (1898-1936) desde sus primeras colecciones, en que se crea un lenguaje poético de símbolos asociados con la muerte que emplea a lo largo de su producción poética. En El Romancero gitano (1927), su colección poética más famosa, estos símbolos llegan a su pleno poder, y se representa la muerte en sus formas física y psicológica, con la luna como el símbolo mortal más importante. En el "Llanto por Ignacio Sánchez Mejías" (1935), la más famosa elegía en lengua castellana desde las "Coplas" de Manrique (1476), García Lorca llora la pérdida de su gran amigo torero en un retrato surrealista de su muerte, en el que dominan los símbolos mortales. Así, García Lorca explora el tema de la muerte desde el comienzo hasta el final de su producción para transformarlo en una presentación universal. Death is an omnipresent theme in the poetry of Spanish poet, Federico García Lorca (1898-1936), from his earliest collections, in which he creates his own poetic language of symbols associated with death, which he employs throughout his poetic work. In El Romancero gitano (1927), his most famous poetic collection, these symbols achieve their full power, and death is represented both physically and psychologically, with the moon as its major symbol. In "Llanto por Ignacio Sánchez Mejías" (1935), the most famous Spanish elegy since the "Coplas" by Manrique (1476), García Lorca laments the death of a great friend and bullfighter in a Surrealist fashion, in which his poetic symbols of death continue to dominate. Thus, García Lorca consistently explores the theme of death from his earliest poems to his last work in both an abstract and a very personal fashion, to create poetry that speaks universally on this ubiquitous human experience.
