Federico García Lorca is widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in 20th-century Spanish literature. A poet, playwright, and deeply sensitive cultural observer, Lorca’s work continues to resonate with readers and theatergoers across the world. His powerful combination of poetic lyricism, surreal imagery, and poignant themes of love, death, and societal conflict places him among the literary giants of his era. Lorca’s life and work are inseparable from the turbulent history of Spain during the early 20th century, and his tragic death at the hands of the fascist forces during the Spanish Civil War in 1936 has only added to his status as a symbol of artistic and political resistance.
