The correspondence letters between Agustí Bartra and Rafael Tasis: a dialogue between the (catalan) exile and Francoist CataloniaThis paper analyses the correspondence, dated 1954-1961, between Agustí Bartra, residing in Mexico, and Rafael Tasis, who took up residence in Barcelona after his exile in France. We shall attempt to analyse the literary issues posed by both authors. It is actually not surprising that their letters are brimming with references to the literary atmosphere of the period, notes on their own and other’s works, projects, and obviously mutual praise and complicity. This is especially interesting and almost unknown documentation, which allows us enhance our the knowledge about Catalan culture of the second half in the 1950s.Key Words: Agustí Bartra; Rafael Tasis; exile; literary reviewing; one’s own literature
L’article analitza la correspondència, datada entre 1954 i 1961, entre Agustí Bartra, resident a Mèxic, i Rafael Tasis, establert a Barcelona després de retornar del seu exili a França. Prenent com a base l’epistolari, intentarem aproximar-nos a les qüestions literàries que plantegen les cartes dels dos autors. No en va, les lletres van farcides de referències a l’ambient literari de l’època, de comentaris a les obres pròpies i alienes, de projectes i, òbviament, d’afalacs personals i de complicitats. Un material notablement interessant i pràcticament desconegut, que ens permet conèixer millor la cultura catalana de la segona meitat dels anys cinquanta del segle passat.Paraules clau: Agustí Bartra; Rafael Tasis; exili; crítica literària; literatura del jo
