Description
A renowned classic in Spanish literature, Ramón María del Valle-Inclán’s poetry is published as a trilogy in the book “Claves Líricas.” One of the collections in this compilation is “The Passenger,” thirty three modernist compositions that have an existential character and sensory beauty, addressing topics such as loneliness, time, passion and pain. The poetic Rubenesque voice belongs to a traveler who, through a melting pot of aesthetic and ideographic symbols, blazes trails for readers. He takes us, from one sensation to another, through a landscape of roses, the symbolic flower of reason and emotion, of mysticism and religion, of life and death. This is the first time this collection of poems has been translated to English and published in a bilingual edition. La obra poética de Ramón María del Valle-Inclán está reunida, a modo de trilogía, bajo el título «Claves líricas». Uno de los poemarios que la integran es «El pasajero», treinta y tres partituras modernistas, de carácter existencial y sensorial belleza, sobre soledad, tiempo, pasión, dolor. La voz poética, rubeniana, pertenece a un caminante que, mediante el crisol de signos ideográficos, estéticos, nos abre caminos de lectura, en uno y otro sentido, por un paisaje de rosas, flor símbolo de razón y emoción, de mística y liturgia, de vida y muerte.
