In 1925, two works won the Spanish National Literature Prize, Marinero en tierra by Rafael Alberti and Versos humanos by Gerardo Diego. In this article we will make a comparative study of both collections of poems to highlight the common features of two authors who perfectly represent the essence of the Generation of 1927. We will show the influence of traditional and popular lyric poetry in several of the poems, as well as recurring themes (the sea, death and love). In terms of style, both poets combine tradition and the avant-garde and they are influenced by other arts, which are also defining elements of this brilliant poetic generation.
