Lorca: Killed for Being Gay | Advanced Spanish Listening
A biography in Spanish of Federico García Lorca, one of the greatest Spanish poets and playwrights of the 20th century.
Poetry collections such as 'Romancero Gitano' and plays including 'Bodas de Sangre' and 'La Casa de Bernarda Alba' are renowned around the world and are continually studied by students and experts alike.
In this episode for advanced Spanish learners to help you learn Spanish, I speak about:
- How his homosexuality and leftist views led to his tragic murder at just 38 years old
- His early life in Andalucía
- Details about his most famous plays and poetry collections
- Recurring themes throughout his works
- His friendship with Salvador Dalí
This episode is not only excellent Spanish listening practice for advanced Spanish learners, it will also be very useful as background for A-Level Spanish students in England studying Lorca's work.
