Written on in English with a size of 4.31 KB

Luis Cernuda (1902-1963)

Born in Seville, Cernuda also lived in Madrid and Salinas. As a student, he strengthened his friendship with members of the Generation of '27. He supported the wartime Republic. In 1938, he exiled himself to Mexico and never returned. A personality characterized by a lonely and painful sensitivity, he was vulnerable. His homosexual condition may explain his disagreement with the world and his rebellion, which is reflected in his life and his work.

  • Longing for a habitable world
  • Craving for perfect beauty
  • Love, reflecting the influence of Romantic writers

The Human Heart: Anatomy and Function

The heart is an organ about the size of a fist, located in the center of the chest, slightly to the left. It is comprised of two atria and two ventricles.
