Antônio Machado was a Spanish poet, a prominent figure of the Generation of '27, although his work is often associated with the Generation of '98 due to its deep reflection on Spanish identity and the Castilian landscape. His poetry is marked by introspection, melancholy, and a constant search for the meaning of life, death, and time. He stands out for his contained lyricism, philosophical reflection, and exploration of memory and dreams.
