El arte jondo

Flamenco is heritage and memory of the oldest civilization in Western Europe; anthem of rebellion and desperation of a people that cries out for the identity that was taken from them. Andalusia is the result of the fusion of each and every one of the cultures that it has welcomed within. His soul integrates the richness of diversity, without losing the essence of Andalusia. These pages show us the immense immaterial wealth of a painful land whose song is a muffled cry that vindicates the soul of a silent people. An ambitious study of flamenco from a historical, linguistic, social, formal and evolutionary point of view; very much in line with the work of authors such as Blas Infante, Antonio Manuel Rodríguez, Emilio González Ferrín and many others who explain the phenomenon of jondo from a perspective intimately linked to the native heritage itself. Silva invites us to travel to the roots of flamenco art -hidden in the mist of time and in the sentimental substratum of a forgotten culture- in order to return to Andalusia what was born in Andalusia.
