Abstract
This bilingual edition of J. V. Foix's first two books, Gertrudis (1927) and KRTU (1932), translated by Antonio Jiménez Millán, includes a presentation and critical reading of the texts by Enric Bou. By vindicating the originality of this writer, who described himself as a "researcher in poetry", justice is done to two fundamental texts of the Iberian and European avant-garde, which, published in editions of only a hundred copies, had a very limited diffusion. They are books of surrealist prose poetry that illustrate an aspect of the author's characteristic duplicity. J. V. Foix was the pseudonym used by Josep Vicenç Foix i Mas (1893-1987), one of the most singular writers of 20th century Catalan literature. Author of a highly experimental poetry, he achieved a subtle, conceptual and formal combination of ancient and modern values, confirmed in the final verse of one of his sonnets: "m'exalta el nou i m'enamora el vell" ("I am exalted by the new and in love with the old").File | Dimensione | Formato | |
