Overview

Llanto por Ignacio Sánchez Mejías es el emocionado homenaje, en cuatro elegías, que dedica Federico García Lorca a su amigo, el torero Ignacio Sánchez Mejías, fallecido como consecuencia de una cogida en 1934. Se trata de una obra unitaria que relata los sentimientos y pensamientos del poeta sobre cuatro elementos trágicos: la cogida y la muerte del torero, su sangre derramada, el cuerpo presente, y, finalmente, el alma ausente.

Los cuatro poemas, de gran belleza y emotividad desgarrada, suponen una cumbre de la poesía taurina, y, pese a su sencillez, o quizá por eso, son una de las obras cumbres de su autor.

Diseño de portada: David Rubiales.

Llanto por Ignacio Sánchez Mejías is the emotional tribute, in four elegies, that Federico García Lorca dedicates to his friend, the bullfighter Ignacio Sánchez Mejías, who died as a result of injuries caused by a bull in 1934. It is a unitary work that recounts the poet's feelings and thoughts on four tragic elements: the bullfighter's injury and death, his spilled blood, the present body, and, finally, the absent soul.

The four poems, of great beauty and heart-breaking emotion, are the pinnacle of bullfighting poetry, and, despite their simplicity, or perhaps because of it, they are one of the author's greatest works.
