Abstract

C. HISPANIC STUDIES CAT ALAN STUDIES By IG. GONZALEZ-LLUBERA T has been our practice in previous years to restrict our review of Catalan studies to the fields of philology and literary history. We may perhaps be excused if we include in the record this time two books of political and social history, Dr. Chaytor's History of Aragon and Catalonia (Methuen); and Professor Ferran Seldevila's Historia de Catalunya, vol. i (Alpha), Barcelona, 1934. The former work provides for English readers an excellent survey of Catalan achievement in medieval times. The latter aims at describing political and constitutional origins and development. Within its scope this work is a model of precision and accuracy adequately expressed in exceptionally lucid and stimulating style. But it also goes to show the remarkable progress accomplished by the Barcelona school of history in the course of the present century. Language Lexicography remains the main field of interest in the philo­ logical domain. A few monographs in dialectology should also be recorded.
