«Al sur de Granada» is the anthropological essay by Gerald Brenan, published by Siglo XXI de España in paperback (334 pages, in Spanish).
Gerald Brenan lived in Yegen, a village in the Alpujarra of Granada, between 1920 and 1934. From that experience came this portrait of Andalusian rural life, with notes on language, customs, gastronomy and courtship practices, and memories of visits by Dora Carrington, Virginia Woolf and Roger Fry. The work is an inquiry into the Hispanic way of life.
Originally published in 1957 as «South from Granada»; this edition is from 2001, belongs to the Antropología collection and includes a translation by Eduardo Chamorro and Jesús Villa.
Recommended for readers interested in anthropology, Andalusian rural history and accounts by British travellers in Spain.
Edward FitzGerald "Gerald" Brenan, CBE, MC was a British writer and hispanist who spent much of his life in Spain.
