Summary "Granada, Poema Oriental, precedido de la Leyenda de al-Hamar, Tomo 1" by José Zorrilla is a poetic narrative work written in the late 19th century. This piece captures the beauty and mystique of Granada, delving into its history and culture through the figure of Al-hamar, a Nazarite prince who embodies the spirit of this enchanting city. The text combines elements of legend and personal reflection, establishing a rich tapestry that intertwines the personal and the historical. The opening of the poem introduces the reader to the author's intention and background, highlighting how despite its previous acclaim, the work has become relatively rare and almost forgotten over time. Zorrilla reflects on the influences that led him to create this narrative, acknowledging the grandeur of Granada and the historical significance of the Alhambra as he sets out to evoke the romance and challenges of the past. It establishes a tone of nostalgia and reverence, pledging to transport readers into a dreamlike exploration of both the architectural wonders and the cultural essence of Granada, as experienced through the eyes of its storied inhabitants.
