Born in Nicaragua, Ruben Dario is known as the consummate leader of the Modernista movement, an esthetic trend that swept the Americas from Mexico to Argentina at the end of the nineteenth century. Seeking a language and a style that would distinguish the newly emergent nations from the old imperial power of Spain, Dario's writing offered a refreshingly new vision of the world--an artistic sensibility at once cosmopolitan and connected to the rhythms of nature. The first part of this collection presents Dario's most significant poems in a bilingual format and organized thematically in the way...

Renowned for its depth of feeling and musicality, the poetry of Ruben Dario (1867-1916) has been revered by writers including Federico Garcia Lorca, Pablo Neruda, and Octavio Paz. A leading figure in the movement known as "modernismo, "Dario created the modern Spanish lyric and permanently altered the course of Spanish poetry."" Yet while his output has inspired a great deal of critical analysis and a scattering of translations, there has been, until now, no complete English translation of any of his books of poetry. This bilingual edition of Dario's 1905 masterpiece, "Cantos de vida y...

This autobiography stands out for its sincerity and its charm. Dario, father of modernism, is almost colloquial, sarcastic, and frank as he illuminates the boundaries between his political ties to frail republics (among them, Nicaragua) and his literary vehemence.

Toward the close of the last century, the poetry of the Spanish-speaking world was pallid, feeble, almost a corpse. 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 Felix Ruben Garcia Sarmiento (1867-1916) of Nicaragua, who called himself Ruben Dario.
Since its original publication in 1965, this edition of Dario's poetry has made English-speaking readers better acquainted with the poet who, as Enrique Anderson Imbert said, "divides literary...
