The history of Sevillian literature cannot be understood without the figure of the Bécquer family, especially with regard to the figure of Gustavo Adolfo, a versatile artist who especially mastered poetry. In connection with the recently inaugurated exhibition Los Bécquer, un linaje de artistas at the Bellas Artes, parallel activities are proliferating around this family. An example of this is the recovery of the guided tours Bécquer was not Bécquer.
This is an initiative by students of 19th century Spanish literature at the University of Seville, guided by Professor Mercedes Comellas and in collaboration with the General Directorate of Culture and Heritage of the University of Seville.
The route will run through the spaces in Seville linked to Bécquer with the aim of getting to know the character beyond the romantic myth.
After an academic tour that transformed their vision of the poet, the students decided to share with the public a critical and revealing look at one of the most emblematic names of Spanish literature.
Two morning sessions on December 18 only.
Both tours will take place at 11:15 and 11:30 and will depart from the Plaza del Museo de Bellas Artes on Thursday, December 18. Invitations can be purchased from Monday, December 15.
The tour, which is not adapted for people with reduced mobility, lasts about an hour and a half and is free of charge.
