Naturaleza y ciudad en la poesía de Verdaguer

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:The tension between nature and city characterizes the literary work of Verdaguer (1845-1902), the most important writer of the Catalan Renaixença. From a romantic conservative position, his poetry reflects the antagonism between the desirable conservation of the natural environment and the necessary urban expansion associated with the industrialization.This conflict can be exemplified by comparing the epic poem Canigó with the long ode To Barcelona. The first is a great song to the Pyrenees, “monument of God”, the material and spiritual cradle of Catalonia. The second celebrates the expansion of Barcelona as the main engine of the Catalan economic and cultural revival in the XIX century.The contradiction between nature and city was intensely suffered by Verdaguer, who tried to reach a conciliatory synthesis in one of his last works, Aires del Montseny (1901).
