There has long been a critical hesitancy regarding the nature and extent of the political affiliation of Federico García Lorca. Though there is no doubt regarding his progressive credentials, the poet has been represented variously as a militant Marxist, an intellectual with a social conscience and an inconsistent liberal. This article considers the question from a precise textual basis, examining the notable modulation appreciated in the verse in the progression from Romancero gitano (1928) to the New York poetry of the years immediately following (1929–1930). The analysis concludes that Lorca's understanding of the central tenets of Marxist ontology was particularly sound; and that his creative reflection on this topic is as stunning and coherent, in both aesthetic and ideological terms, as that of his friends and sternest of critics at the time, Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dalí
