Joan Ramón Resina on Maragall

Two excellent characterizations of Maragall's work.


The poet perceives the majesty of the sacred in the “living word,” which is language so close to nature that it is just at the point of blending into the landscape or perhaps emerges from it (199).

“A subtle movement of the air,” says Maragall, “places before you the immense variety of the world and arouses in you a strong sense of the infinite unknown" (200).
