Books by Joan Maragall
Enllà: Poesies
"Enllà: Poesies" by Joan Maragall is a poetry collection published in 1906. Written during Maragall's mature period, the work bridges his mountain poetry and coastal themes, reflecting his shifting summer retreats from the Pyrenees to the sea. The collection includes poems dedicated to Montseny and Montjuïc, and features the second part of Maragall's treatment of the Comte Arnau myth—a legendary figure whose soul wanders the mountains seeking redemption through love and human connection.
Visions & Cants
"Visions & Cants" by Joan Maragall is a poetry collection published in 1900. Divided into three parts, the book journeys through Catalonia's legendary past, everyday present, and hopeful future. Maragall weaves tales of cursed hunters, condemned monks, and heroic kings to explore Catalan identity and character. From mythic figures like the Comte Arnau to historical heroes like King Jaume I, these poems blend folklore with national consciousness, moving from historical visions through intimate daily scenes toward collective celebration and patriotic exaltation.
Nausica : $b Tragedia en tres actes treta de l'Odissea d'Homer
"Nausica: Tragedia en tres actes treta de l'Odissea d'Homer" by Joan Maragall is a tragedy written between 1908 and 1911. This posthumous work reimagines the encounter between adolescent Princess Nausica and the mature hero Ulysses as he journeys home to Ithaca. Inspired by Goethe's version, Maragall explores the impossible attraction between the youthful princess and the seasoned wanderer, each bound by their inescapable destinies. The tragedy concludes with a tearful farewell rather than despair, as both characters accept their separate fates.
