Beethoven on Madrid!

It was the same day that met Bécquer. At the afternoon, I was walked on the street of Madrid and...  Oh my god! The theatre was full! Amazing. But, my question always was: Who will inside of it? And when I enter into the place, I saw one famous senior...  Oh! He was Beethoven! I could feel very nervous! 
So, I get it at the concert that he made and later we go to sleep. It was a one longer day! 


Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer.

In this time, you can know about many people, above famous writers, like Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer. He was born the 17th of February in 1836, in Sevilla. Maybe that he be the most important poet of Romantic movement. For a late Romantic Self, it has been equally associated with the post-Romantic movement. One of his most famous poems were "RIMA IV" 

   " No digáis que agotado su tesoro,  

      De asuntos falta, enmudeció la lira:

      Podrá no haber poetas; pero siempre

      Habrá poesía. " 


In one of the trips...

In one of the trips that I made, I had the big luck of could see the famous poet; "Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer".  He was a mysterious person. Didn't talk with anyone. I look around his and I could see one place with trash...  All it was untidy...  When he talked, read me a lot of poetry and poems that he wrote for himshelf... It was a fantastic moment, but the reality is that its humor and personality aren't very positive...

Funny and sad moments.

When I traveled at that times, I saw more than an invention that caught my attention. One of them, was the cinema. It was amazing see in firsthand how they created movies in antiquity. Now, it may seem simple but for they were an enormus progress! 

Also, I had to see a lot of young children working in factories. It was very hard to bear that episode, because children with ten years don't should worker. It was horrible. 



Lives of people.

In one trip in the time with the bookchine that I made, I traveled until that time and later met a worker and a factory owner. 

Theirs lives were very different, so the worker had a house shared with other people and they didn't have a good health. However, the boss had many rights.
