Summary "Virgin Spain: Scenes from the Spiritual Drama of a Great People" by Waldo Frank is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work explores the rich cultural and spiritual heritage of Spain, intertwining historical insights with poetic reflections on the interplay between its diverse peoples and landscapes. The author presents Spain not merely as a location but as a living entity shaped by its history and the myriad influences that have converged there. At the start of the book, the author sets the scene with vivid and sensory descriptions of the Spanish landscape, starting from Badajoz, where he meditates on the profound connection between the land and the characters that inhabit it. He introduces a broad spectrum of images—soldiers, goats, and townsfolk—symbolizing the varied cultural tapestry of Spain. The opening emphasizes the enchanting beauty of the Spanish sky and earth and hints at an ongoing exploration of its complex history, including its connections to both the Islamic world and the indigenous people, foreshadowing the book's thematic depth as it progresses into a more detailed narrative on Spain's spiritual and cultural journey.
