Book Description
This is a study of the Spanish dramatist RamØn del Valle-Inclan (1866-1936). John Lyon shows that Valle has links with two avant-garde movements: the turn of the century Symbolism associated with Maeterlinck and Yeats, and the anti-tragic values which surfaced in the 1920s and culminated in Absurdism.
