Abstract

This essay examines the explicit references to Greek literature in Catalan poetry since 1980. For the first time, it examines how the Catalan poets include the mythology, philosophy and art of classical Hellas today – after the formative "noucentist" tradition of Carles Riba and Salvador Espriu – in their works. The diverse reception of Greek motifs is illustrated using selected examples. The subject areas are limited to a few central myths – primarily to the figure of the cunning Ulysses.
