Digressions into family history enable us to see Federico, the son of a well-off landowning family with a tradition of literacy, poetry-writing, and musical accomplishment--as the culmination of a particular family type his brother describes as \"happy, spontaneous, and instinctive.\" The Lorca family eventually moved to Granada, where both brothers attended university. However, real education took place at the vividly described deliberations of the \"Back Corner\" group of the Granadan avant-garde.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs the \"green morning\" of childhood came to an end with Federico's first poetic successes, the brothers' lives diverged; Francisco's account ends with Federico's departure for Madrid. Francisco became a distinguished professor of Spanish at Columbia University, and the second half of this volume includes ten of his lectures on his brother's work--discussions which draw upon his personal knowledge of the gradual gestations of the plays and his recollections of rehearsals where Federico was a skilled director.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Francisco García Lorca\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0811209709\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780811209700\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New Directions Publishing Corporation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/17\/1986\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 290\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.68lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.95h x 5.21w x 0.80d","brand":"Francisco García Lorca","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47520296501503,"sku":"9780811209700","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_483b9013-b40d-48c9-bbf1-ecad945364c9.jpg?v=1762884737","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/in-the-green-morning-francisco-garcza-lorca-9780811209700","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
