He witnessed and wrote about some of the twentieth-century's most notable events including the Spanish Civil War and the foundation of the state of Israel. Due to a lack of translations of his work he is only now being discovered by the international audience and will soon join the ranks of major realist writers in world literature. In Josep Pla, Joan Ramon Resina teases out the writer's deep-seated intellectual concerns and challenges the assumption of Pla as an anti-intellectual. Resina condenses Pla's forty-seven volumes of work, including travel books, narrative fiction, and history, into eleven thematic units: including time, memory, perception, life, religion, metaphysics, utopia, and self-delusion. Resina acutely explores the writer's authorial gaze and invites the reader to see the world through the eyes of one of the most underappreciated observers and writers of the twentieth-century. 500 Description based upon print version of record. 504 Includes bibliographical references and index. 533 Electronic reproduction. |bNew York |nAvailable via World Wide Web. 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01411635 600 10 Pla, Josep, |d1897-1981 |xCriticism and interpretation. 776 08 |iPrint version:Resina, Joan, Ramon |tJosep Pla : Seeing the World in the Form of Articles |dToronto : University of Toronto Press,c2017 |z9781487501846 830 0 Toronto Iberic 910 JSTOR DDA 956 40 |uhttps://www.jstor.org/stable/10.3138/j.ctv1n35b7q 980 14256253
