Jordi Arbon\u00e8s Montull (Barcelona, 1929 – Bernal, Argentina, 2001) translated more than 140 works, mostly from British and north-American prose fiction and drama from the 19th<\/sup> and 20th<\/sup> centuries, into Catalan and Spanish. A part from translating, he wrote poetry, prose fiction and drama. He also wrote essays, especially about drama and Manuel de Pedrolo\u2019s work. In addition, he produced a big amount of articles on translation and wrote the forewords for the most significant works of writers he knew.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

He lived in Argentina since 1956 and from there he contributed to Catalan magazines such as Catalunya<\/em>, Ressorgiment<\/em>, Serra d\u2019Or<\/em> and Revista de Catalunya<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aware that disseminating and studying one of the largest works in translation in the second half of the 20th<\/sup> century was of utmost importance, Arbon\u00e8s\u2019 family transferred his legacy to the Catalan university Universitat Aut\u00f2noma de Barcelona.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His legacy consists in a great amount of translations or edited original versions as well as his own particular book collection, which includes dedicated books among other materials. It also contains first or very old editions and a big amount of unpublished manuscripts and a large correspondence maintained with various personalities of the Catalan literature and culture. There are also a lot of press excerpts which constitute valuable historical material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jordi Arbon\u00e8s’ collection<\/a> is kept in the library Biblioteca d’Humanitats of the Universitat Aut\u00f2noma de Barcelona.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
