Notes

  1. While some of Lorca's New York poems were published immediately,Poeta en Nueva York did not appear as a book until 1940.

  2. “Poet in New York: Twenty-Five years After,” in Garcia Lorca,Poet in New York, trans., Ben Belitt (New York: Grove Press, 1955), p. xxx.

  3. Because Lorca rejected automatism, critics such as Betty Jean Craige inLorca's Poeta en Nueva York. The Fall into Consciousness (Lexington: University of Kentucky Press, 1977), p. 45, refuse to acknowledge surrealist influence inPoeta en Nueva York.

  4. The only study to consider these two books together is by Agusti Bartra, “Two Poetic Impressions,”Americas, 18 (1966), 15–22. He concludes that Lorca's anguish is expressed in images that ascend, while Crane's images descend.

  5. The Complete Poems of Hart Crane, ed. Waldo Frank (Garden City, N.Y.: Double-day & Co., 1958), p. 4. All references toThe Bridge are from this edition and are followed by page numbers in the text.

  6. Federico Garcia Lorca,Obras completas (Madrid; Aguilar, 1963), p. 1673. All references to Lorca's works are from this edition and are followed by page numbers in the text.
