Brossa i Cuervo, Joan (Barcelona 1919-1998) was a poet in every sense of the word. He wrote poetry in traditional stanzas (sonnets, Sapphic odes, sestinas, romances, etc.), poetry about everyday concerns (which he also called anti-poetry because of its subject material and prosaic form), circumstantial prose (collected in Vivàrium (1972) and Anafil (1987)), poetic prose, theatre, film scripts, visual poetry and object poetry. For Brossa, genres and dividing lines between the arts did not exist. |
