From an early age he was fascinated by Spain's mixed heritage, adapting its folk songs, ballads, lullabies, and flamenco music into poems and plays. By the age of thirty, he had published five books of poems, culminating in 1928 with \u003ci\u003eGypsy Ballads\u003c\/i\u003e, which brought him far-reaching fame. In 1929-30 he studied in New York City, where he wrote the poems that were published posthumously as \u003ci\u003ePoet in New York\u003c\/i\u003e. In 1936, at the outset of the Spanish Civil War, he was shot to death by anti-Republican rebels in Franco's army, and his books were banned and destroyed. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eChristopher Maurer\u003c\/b\u003e is the head of the Department of Spanish, French, Italian, and Portuguese at the University of Illinois in Chicago.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 432\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.3 x 9.2 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 09, 2004\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45859483189445,"sku":"9780374528553","price":37.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/G6UwOlfgbo9780374528553.webp?v=1771527116","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/selected-verse-revised-bilingual-edition-paperback","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
