Rafael Guillén
Rafael Guillén (born in Granada, 27 April 1933) is a Spanish poet, a prominent member of the Generation of '50. "National Prize for Literature" in Spain (1994) and one of the most important authors of his generation, he has a long artistic career and among his merits is the fact of helping the recovery of Andalusian poetic culture after the devastation of the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) The neoclassical influence that weighed on other members of his generation is noticeable in his early works. However, the attraction to popular themes and airs (''Cancionero-guía para andar por el aire de Granada'', 1962) soon took on an evolution that manifested itself, already in the sixties, abandoning the rigidity of traditional metrics. With the publication of ''Moheda'' (1979), it surprises with its uninhibited and innovative style in syntax. His themes are not light: love and eroticism are often mixed with elegy for the inevitable degradation of the passage of time, expressed in verse ...

Generation Of '50
The Generation of '50 ( es, Generación del 50) relates to a Spanish literary movement of the mid-20th century, also known as the children of the civil war, and relates to writers born around the 1920s and published around the 1950s. They engendered a new lyrical preoccupation with language and incorporated metaphysical and philosophical techniques in their work in order to circumvent and undermine the strict censorship of the Francoist State. Many of the movement's initial features were influenced by the Generation of '27 and Generation of '98, notably Antonio Machado. In the second stage, when censorship relaxed somewhat novelists saw their role as provoking social reform by describing misery and injustice. Francoist Spain allowed, for the first time, members of the Generation of '50 to participate in translations and commentaries of selected foreign authors such as T.S. Eliot and Paul Celan. Most of these authors grouped into circles of friends meeting in bars and coffeehous ...
