| Abstract
|
:
|
The prize-winning novelist Juan Marsé, born in Barcelona in 1933, is widely-read not only within Spain but also in translation, for his often provocative portrayals of life in post-war Barcelona. Clark's study discusses Marsé's engagement with Catholic popular culture, Spanish National Catholicism and Catalan Catholic Nationalism, exploring Marsé's use of iconic imagery as an ironic sub-textual commentary on political Ideology, by which he is able to experiment with outer reality and inner reconstructions of experience.
