Spanish Generation of 1927
The Generation of '27 (Spanish Generación del '27) was an influential group of poets that arose in Spanish literary circles between 1923 and 1927, essentially out of a shared desire to experience and work with avant-garde forms of art and poetry. Their first formal meeting took place in Seville in 1927 to mark the 300th anniversary of the death of Rafael Alberti (1902-1999)
The Civil War brought the splitting of the movement: García Lorca was murdered and other members forced into exile.
