Poemas De Juan Francisco Manzano/poems of Juan Francisco Manzano

Del poeta cubano del siglo XIX que fue esclavo, dijo Jos Lezama Lima: "Manzano es un sorprendente caso de intuicin para lo potico, con los escasos conocimientos que pudo obtener, nos ha dejado una pequea obra llena de musicalidad y de simpata potica." Su poesa es a la vez ubicada dentro del romanticismo aunque con un sabor criollo peculiar, un ejemplo de un fragmento de su poema "La cocuyera." Of this 19th century Cuban poet, who had been a slave, Jos Lezama Lima said: "Manzano is a surprising case of poetic intuition; with the little knowledge he was able to obtain, he has left us a small work, filled with musicality and poetic resonance." His poetry is at once situated among the romantics, while offering a peculiar creole flavor, an example being a fragment from his poem "La cocuyera."Manzano, Juan Francisco is the author of 'Poemas De Juan Francisco Manzano/poems of Juan Francisco Manzano ', published 0008 under ISBN 9788498166507 and ISBN 8498166500.
