YERMA: RESUMEN y ANÁLISIS de la Obra de Federico García Lorca

Yerma, written by Federico García Lorca in 1934, is one of the author's most intense tragedies. Set in a rural environment marked by moral rigidity, the play tells the story of a woman trapped between her desire to be a mother and the expectations of a society that decides for her. Her marriage to Juan, the silent presence of Víctor, and the voices of the village create an atmosphere of constant pressure that transforms daily life into a conflict with no way out. In this video, you will find a complete summary of the play and a clear analysis of its main symbols: aridity, water, fertility, honor, and the figure of woman as an imposed destiny. We also explore how Lorca portrays frustration, desire, and the weight of duty in a world where silence is more powerful than words. An essential tragedy by Lorca, where tradition and intimacy clash, leading Yerma to an end as inevitable as it is devastating.
