Over the last twenty years there has been a growing international interest in the city of Barcelona. This has been reflected in the academic world through a series of studies, courses, seminars, and publications. The Barcelona Reader hinges together a selection of the best academic articles, written in English, about the city, and its main elements of identity and interest: art, urban planning, history and social movements. The book includes scholarly essays about Barcelona that can be of interest to the student and the general public alike. It focuses on cultural representations of the city: the arts (including literature) provide a complex yet discontinuous portrait of the city, similar to a patchwork. The authors selected create a kaleidoscope of views and voices thus presenting a diverse yet inclusive Barcelona portrait. The Barcelona Reader offers a multifaceted assessment that will be essential reading for anyone interested in this iconic city.

Isaac Albéniz is one of the most important figures in the history of Spanish music. A legendary child prodigy, he went on to become one of the leading concert pianists of his generation in Europe. However, he aspired to compose music rooted in the folklore of his native Spain, contributing seminal masterpieces that defined the sound of Spanish art music in the 20th century and served as an inspiration to his most eminent successors. This annotated bibliography and research guide provides an up-to-date and thorough presentation of all the sources any aficionado, performer, or scholar would need to deepen his or her understanding of this fascinating pianist and composer.
Pere Farrés (Manlleu 1948 Vic 2008), filòleg, va morir en plena i fecunda maduresa. En la jornada d’homenatge que el seu departament de la Universitat de Barcelona va celebrar en memòria seva, companys i amics van glossar-ne la figura com a persona i com a professor, i l’obra com a estudiós de la literatura catalana. Un profund agraïment amara aquests papers diversos que ajuden, entre tots, a fixar i a transmetre alguns dels valors que van concórrer en l’amic, el col·lega, el professor i el deixeble Pere Farrés i Arderiu.
