Federico Garca Lorca

Federico Garca Lorca (1898-1936)

Federico del Sagrado Corazn de Jess Garca Lorca (5 June 1898 19 August 1936) was a Spanish poet, dramatist and theatre director. Garca Lorca achieved international recognition as an emblematic member of the Generation of '27. He is thought to be one of the many thousands who were 'disappeared' and executed by Fascists at the beginning of the Spanish Civil War. In 2008, a Spanish judge opened an investigation into Lorca's death. Lorca's family dropped objections to the excavation of a possible gravesite near Alfacar but no human remains were found.
