In this dissertation, the poetic thought of León Felipe is examined through the study of his works written during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939), namely, Good bye, Panamá (1936); La insignia (1937); El payaso de las bofetadas y el pescador de caña (1938); and Español del éxodo y del llanto (1939).
The poet's biographical and poetic paths are outlined, as they are closely linked. A diachronic approach is used to analyse his fundamental ideas or themes that emerge, evolve and merge through his writings during this period which shaped his unique cosmo-vision.
The purpose of this dissertation is to study the works of the poet within the social-historical context in which they evolved, establish the importance of this period as the catalyst for his ideological and poetic thought, and analyse how these aspects are reflected in his poetry to give him a new and definitive voice. / Classics and Modern European Languages / M.
