«Segunda antología poética (1898-1918)» is Juan Ramón Jiménez's poetry anthology, published by Austral in paperback (496 pages, in Spanish).
The work brings together poems written between 1898 and 1918, ordered by the author to reflect the process of poetic creation: from the spark of inspiration to the completed book, stripped of the anecdotal. Jiménez dedicates it «a la inmensa minoría», in search of an individual reader as opposed to the mass-man. The volume closes with a study by Javier Blasco linking the poems to the poet's life, his intellectual formation and his way of understanding poetry.
Annotated edition by Javier Blasco, professor at the University of Valladolid. Belongs to the Austral collection, Poetry series, within its Classics line.
For readers of Spanish poetry and admirers of Juan Ramón Jiménez, Nobel Prize in Literature in 1956, who want a commented selection of his first great creative stage.
Juan Ramón Jiménez Mantecón was a Spanish poet, a prolific writer who received the 1956 Nobel Prize in Literature "for his lyrical poetry, which in the Spanish language constitutes an example of high spirit and artistic purity". One of Jiménez's most important contributions to modern poetry was his advocacy of the concept of "pure poetry".
