Las cien mejores poesías (líricas) de la lengua castellana by Menéndez y Pelayo
"Las cien mejores poesías (líricas) de la lengua castellana" by Menéndez y Pelayo is a collection of lyrical poetry compiled in the early 20th century. This anthology features a selection of one hundred poems chosen from the rich tapestry of both ancient and modern Spanish literature, deliberately excluding works by contemporary authors. The focus of the collection lies in celebrating esteemed poets from the Golden Age of Spanish poetry, while also providingaccessible compositions that reflect the evolution of lyrical forms through Spanish literary history. The opening of the anthology includes a preface discussing the challenges of curating such a diverse range of works, where the author acknowledges the subjectivity inherent in selecting poems. Menéndez y Pelayo emphasizes the importance of preserving integrity in the texts, opting to include compositions from the 15th century onward while highlighting the poetical gems from the 16th and early 17th centuries. The initial poems featured are rich in historical significance, touching on themes of love, loss, and nature, inviting readers to embark on a journey through the expressive depth and beauty of Spanish lyrical poetry.
