Bodas de sangre (Blood Wedding)

No language-precedence contest: this is the Spanish original and the only first-edition candidate. It is the only one of Lorca's plays published in book form during his lifetime; the play premiered at the Teatro Beatriz, Madrid, on 8 March 1933, nearly three years before printing, so no earlier book-form 'first' can exist. English translations follow the Spanish original and hold no precedence. The play was staged in English in New York in 1935 as 'Bitter Oleander' in José Weissberger's translation, but that production predates any published English text; the census note's claim of a 1939 first English translation could not be confirmed against two independent sources naming a translator and publisher, so no English first is asserted here.
