Summary:"A passionate dissatisfaction with Spain's immediate past and a keen awareness of the need for a rebirth of spirit and letters were the major points of unity among the disparate group of writers renowned as the Generation of '98. They also enjoyed a shared love of old towns and the countryside and early poets such as Berceo and Juan Ruiz. This program seeks to understand the icons of that Generation through dramatic readings from Antonio Machado's El Mañana Efímero and Campos de Castilla, Miguel de Unamuno's La Soledad de la Hispaña Castellana and El Sepulcro de Don Quijote, Pia Baroja's El Árbol de la Ciencia, José "Azorń" Martínez Ruiz's Castilla, and other works-- Container.
