In 1939, Manuel Machado returned to Spain after his exile during the Spanish Civil War. Settling in Madrid, he faced the challenges of a country deeply affected by conflict. His return marked a new chapter in his life and work, as he sought to reconnect with his roots and the cultural landscape of his homeland.
Literary impact
The return to Spain allowed Machado to reflect on the changes in his country and the impact of war on his poetry. His later works often grappled with themes of memory, loss, and the resilience of the human spirit, influenced by his experiences during exile.
