• Moral decency Sarrión and Castellet

The poet Antonio Martínez Sarrión (Albacete, 1939), one of the members of the poetic group of the newest, has died in Madrid of a heart attack, as reported by Efe.

Nine Newest Spanish Poets

, edited in 1970 by Josep Maria Castellet, marked a new orientation in Spanish poetry and a break with postwar poets.

Martínez Sarrión, also an essayist and translator, participated in the

antirealist tendency

of the group of the newest and assumed early cultural and mythical references of literature, cinema or jazz, which his current companions would later adopt.

The group claimed

freedom and

creative

inspiration

in the face of the severity of the previous generation.

In addition to Martínez Sarrión, the anthology included Ana María Moix, Manuel Vázquez Montalbán, José María Álvarez, Pere Gimferrer, Félix de Azúa, Vicente Molina Foix, Guillermo Carnero and Leopoldo María Panero.

The production of Martínez Sarrión until 1980 was collected in

El centro inaccesible

, while later he published works such as

Horizonte desde la nada

(1983) and

De acedía

(1986),

Exercise on Rilke

(1988),

Poetic Anthology

(1994),

Cantil

(1995 ),

Sanity

(1999) or

Poet in Diwan

(2004).

His last published work is the poetry book

Farol de Saturno

(Tusquets, 2011) and the daily book

Escaramuzas

(Alfaguara, 2011).

Previous selections of his newspapers were in 1995

Cargar la luck

and, in 2000,

Esquirlas

.

In addition, he published three memoirs,

Childhood and Corruptions

(1993) and

A Youth

(1997) and

Jazz and rainy days

(2002), all with Alfaguara.
