Extract

García Gutiérrez, because he wrote El Trovador (at the age of twenty-two) is commonly considered a typical Romantic dramatist. It may be affirmed with considerable justice, however, that he upheld the standard of Romanticism for a relatively short time and that he repented at the age of thirty. The record for long service is held by Zorrilla, who died still a Romanticist in 1893.
