The second of Lorca's trilogy of rural dramas, Yerma, is a blend of
contrasting moods through which Lorca charts the increasingly
destructive obsession of a childless young country wife, and probes
the darker zones of human fears and desires. The play's rich mode
of expression - a combination of verbal, visual and auditory images
and rhythms - is also geared to celebrating sexual attraction and
fertility, creation and procreation. Through his characterization
of the play's central figure, Lorca raises the question of women's
social status - a controversial question both then and now, and one
to which Robin Warner pays particular attention in his critical
introduction to the play. He also examines the links between the
dramatic structure of Yerma and the importance of cultural politics
during the course of the Second Spanish Republic. The Spanish text
is supported by an introduction and notes in English, as well as by
an extensive vocabulary and section of discussion questions. -- .
