This study offers a reappraisal of the contribution of the poet
Antonio Machado to Modernism, seeking to open up new perspectives
for the interpretation of his poetry, and includes for the first
time a comparative analysis of Machado's translators into English.
While the book is attentive to areas of recent critical debate, the
argument keeps Machado's poems to the fore, with new detailed
readings of many of his most significant poems. The reader will
find that the structure of this book also allows for a separate
exploration of each of Machado's main poetic tendencies. One
associated with the Symbolist poetics is considered in Chapter I
dealing with those early poems where the sound of water acquires a
rich symbolic meaning. An emphasis on the visual imagination is
more prevalent in the material studied in chapters II and III with
a focus on the natural landscape, while the more conceptual and
intellectual strand occupies Chapter IV. Every individual chapter
begins with a brief introduction to the theoretical ground related
to the specific discussion (on gender, space-place, the sublime,
and translation, respectively), and a survey of the cultural
discourses which situate the material under analysis in the
original historical contexts.
