«Poesía romántica» is the anthology of Spanish Romantic poetry by Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer and other authors, published by Anaya Infantil y Juvenil in paperback (176 pages, in Spanish).
Bécquer's undisputed fame as a Romantic poet has left other authors of the movement in the background; this selection broadens the view of Spanish Romanticism by bringing together his Rimas with poems by Rosalía de Castro, Espronceda and other representative writers of the era. The volume thus offers a journey through different voices and trends in Romantic poetry, designed to bring the period closer to young readers.
It belongs to the Nueva Biblioteca Didáctica collection from Anaya. Annotated edition with activities, according to the publisher.
Aimed at young students and readers approaching Romantic poetry for the first time; recommended for ages 14 and up.
Gustavo Adolfo Claudio Domínguez Bastida, better known as Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer, was a Spanish Romantic poet and writer, also a playwright, literary columnist, and talented in drawing. He is one of the most important figures in Spanish literature, with some considering him the most read Spanish writer after Miguel de Cervantes. He adopted the alias of Bécquer as his brother Valeriano Bécquer, a painter, had done earlier. He was associated with the romanticism and post-romanticism movements and wrote while realism enjoyed success in Spain. He was moderately well-known during his life, but it was after his death that most of his works were published. His best-known works are the Rhymes and the Legends, usually published together as Rimas y leyendas. These poems and tales are essential to studying Spanish literature and common reading for high-school students in Spanish-speaking countries.
