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 twentieth-century Modernism was F駘ix Rub駭 Garc? Sarmiento (1867-1916) of Nicaragua, who called himself Rub駭 Dar?. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Since its original publication in 1965, this edition of Dar?'s poetry has made English-speaking 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 Dar?'s verse, from the stinging little poems of \u003ci\u003eThistles\u003c\/i\u003e to the dark, brooding lines of \u003ci\u003eSongs of the Argentine and Other Poems\u003c\/i\u003e. Also included, in the Epilogue, is a transcript of a radio dialogue between two other major poets, Federico Garc? Lorca of Spain and Pablo Neruda of Chile, who celebrate the rich legacy of Rub駭 Dar?. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rub駭 Dar?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0292776152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780292776159\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Texas Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1965\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 149\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.35d","brand":"Rub駭 Dar?","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981533708543,"sku":"9780292776159","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_139743eb-423c-4d5d-87e0-28a1769ffa1a.jpg?v=1683256137","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/selected-poems-of-rubn-daro-rubn-daro-9780292776159","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
