It needed new life and a new direction. The exotic, erratic, revolutionary poet who changed the course of Spanish poetry and brought it into the mainstream of twentiethcentury Modernism was Flix Rubn Garca Sarmiento (18671916) of Nicaragua, who called himself Rubn Daro.Since its original publication in 1965, this edition of Daros poetry has made Englishspeaking readers better acquainted with the poet who, as Enrique Anderson Imbert said, divides literary history into before and after. The selection of poems is intended to represent the whole range of Daros verse, from the stinging little poems of Thistles to the dark, brooding lines of Songs of the Argentine and Other Poems. Also included, in the Epilogue, is a transcript of a radio dialogue between two other major poets, Federico Garca Lorca of Spain and Pablo Neruda of Chile, who celebrate the rich legacy of Rubn Daro.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Texas Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45900946800838,"sku":"DADAX0292776152","price":31.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/9389\/1014\/files\/61acoZqTDPL.jpg?v=1780319830","url":"https:\/\/ergodemedia.com\/products\/selected-poems-of-rubn-daro-texas-pan-american-series","provider":"Ergodemedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
