Juan Ramón Jiménez: A Movement Toward Purity—in Spanish

Awarded the 1956 Nobel Prize in Literature, Juan Ramón Jiménez was a master of impressionistic language and imagery. This program explores the Spanish poet’s life and career with the help of scholarly interviews, archival photographs, and excerpts from Jiménez’ writings. Conveying his youthful interest in Romanticism and Symbolism, his subsequent emphasis on color and tonality, and his lifelong engagement with the spiritual dimensions of death and nothingness, the program describes the poet’s bouts with depression, his ties to other Spanish writers such as Rubén Darío and Francisco Villaespesa, and the travels undertaken by Jiménez and his wife, Zenobia Camprubí. Not available in French-speaking Canada. (Spanish, 58 minutes)
