ROBERT BRIAN TATE Robert Brian Tate 1921–2011
ROBERT BRIAN TATE Robert Brian Tate 1921–2011 Life BRIAN TATE WAS A MAJOR FIGURE IN Hispanic studies, as much at home in Catalan and Latin as in Spanish. He was born in Belfast on 27 December 1921 and died on 21 February 2011. He was educated at the Royal Belfast Academical Institution: the school was unusual in offering Spanish at this period, and produced a number of eminent Hispanists (among them F. W. Pierce). In 1939 he began studies at Queen’s University, and in his second year left for war service in India, Nepal and Burma; while out east he began learning Arabic. In the company of General Slim he was one of the first to enter Rangoon in 1945. On graduation in 1948 with a first in French and Spanish, his teacher Ignasi González i Llubera (1893–1962) encouraged him to go to Barcelona and Girona (in Catalonia) to do research. (This was early in the Franco regime, when Catalan politics and Catalan studies in general were suppressed.) His MA thesis at Queen’s University was ‘The Life, Works and Ideas of Cardinal Margarit’ (1949), and his PhD (also Queen’s University, 1955) was ‘The Influence of Italian Humanism on the Historiography of Castile and Aragon during the Fifteenth Century’. After teaching at Manchester (assistant lecturer, 1949–52) and Queen’s (lecturer, 1952–6) he was appointed reader at Nottingham in 1956 and was professor (indeed, the first professor of Spanish at Nottingham) from 1958 to 1983; dean of the faculty of arts 1976–9; professor emeritus in 1991. -
George Orwell in His Centenary Year a Catalan Perspective
THE ANNUAL JOAN GILI MEMORIAL LECTURE MIQUEL BERGA George Orwell in his Centenary Year A Catalan Perspective THE ANGLO-CATALAN SOCIETY 2003 © Miquel Berga i Bagué This edition: The Anglo-Catalan Society Produced and typeset by Hallamshire Publications Ltd, Porthmadog. This is the fifth in the regular series of lectures convened by The Anglo-Catalan Society, to be delivered at its annual conference, in commemoration of the figure of Joan Lluís Gili i Serra (1907-1998), founder member of the Society and Honorary Life President from 1979. The object of publication is to ensure wider diffusion, in English, for an address to the Society given by a distinguished figure of Catalan letters whose specialism coincides with an aspect of the multiple interests and achievements of Joan Gili, as scholar, bibliophile and translator. This lecture was given by Miquel Berga at Aberdare Hall, University of Wales (Cardiff), on 16 November 2002. Translation of the text of the lecture and general editing of the publication were the responsibility of Alan Yates, with the cooperation of Louise Johnson. We are grateful to Miquel Berga himself and to Iolanda Pelegrí of the Institució de les Lletres Catalanes for prompt and sympathetic collaboration. Thanks are also due to Pauline Climpson and Jenny Sayles for effective guidance throughout the editing and production stages. Grateful acknowledgement is made of regular sponsorship of The Annual Joan Gili Memorial Lectures provided by the Institució de les Lletres Catalanes, and of the grant towards publication costs received from the Fundació Congrés de Cultura Catalana. The author Miquel Berga was born in Salt (Girona) in 1952. -
T.S. Eliot and Josep Carner in Dialogue Allusions to Eliot's Poetry
e-ISSN 2037-6588 ISSN 0392-4777 Rassegna iberistica Vol. 42 – Num. 112 – Dicembre 2019 T.S. Eliot and Josep Carner in Dialogue Allusions to Eliot’s Poetry in Nabí Margalit Serra Bar-Ilan University, Israel Abstract The aim of this article is to show that Nabí’s poem, written by Catalan poet Josep Carner, contains allusions to the works of T.S. Eliot The Waste Land as well as to “Burnt Norton”, the first poem of Four Quartets. Allusion is a literary resource which is recurrent in both authors, to whom literary tradition is pivotal in the process of poetic creation. A thorough analysis of the main allusions of Nabí to these two poems of T.S. Eliot demonstrates that by means of allusion a dialogue between works of different times, languages and authors may be established. Keywords Literary allusion. Josep Carner. Nabí. Poetic dialogue.

Dossier De Premsa
DOSSIER DE PREMSA 1 PRESENTACIÓ DE L’ANY CARNER Dir molt en un mig dir Aquests sis monosíl·labs són el lema triat per commemorar l’Any Carner. Formen part d’un vers del poeta que es completa amb seria mon afany. El vers explica de manera diàfana un aspecte essencial de la poesia d’aquell que encara és citat i recordat com el «Príncep dels poetes», un títol d’honor heretat de Verdaguer i de Maragall. Algunes literatures europees concedien la distinció al poeta que reunia el consens en l’escala de valoració poètica dels seus col·legues: Ronsard, Verlaine, Mallarmé, a la literatura francesa; Garcilaso, Góngora, Neruda, a la de llengua espanyola. El 4 de juny de 1970 Josep Carner moria a Brussel·les, al seu domicili, al carrer Lincoln 64 (al sud de la ciutat, al municipi d’Uccle / Ukkel). Commemorem el cinquantè aniversari de la seva mort. L’Any Carner, que s’allargarà fins ben entrat el 2021, desplegarà un gran nombre d’activitats, de tota mena i per a tota mena de públics. Les línies mestres abracen tots els camps literaris que ell va conrear (i també aquells àmbits en què d’altres artistes han situat la seva obra: la cançó, el teatre). S’han integrat a l’Any les iniciatives de molts municipis de Catalunya, però també iniciatives d’empreses culturals privades que volen homenatjar Carner. Els objectius de l’Any Carner són els de difondre la seva obra. L’agenda del web Carner posarà al dia els actes i les manifestacions que es vagin preparant. -
