The poetry of Juan Ramón Jiménez goes through various phases and influences. This anthology, introduced by an explanation of his work and style, allows us to observe his evolution as a poet from an early romantic style to a more existentialist, intimate and spiritual one. He is also influenced by the avant-garde, modernism, mysticism... It is as if he embraces everything in a vital search for the perfect poem, for the perfect word. His consideration of the self, of identity as a poet and observer of nature, pantheistic and sacred in essence, is very interesting.
