Sé un poble lluny de Provença

Sé un poble lluny de Provença
Blanc de pètals de matí,
No hi ha torres de defensa
Ni contrades de remença
Sense casa ni molí.
Ni enyorança, ni temença,
Ni l’ocell en roc marí:
La vinya pertot s’agença
I en ermots en defallença
Creix el blat d’etern nodrir.
Tot és llum a l'hora tensa
Amb frescors de monestir;
Per una Alta Complaença
El sol hi lleva semença
En rostolls de bon seguir.
Tot és do, tot recompensa
I l’Extrema Coneixença
Per qui en sap trobar el camí;
A l’Alba de la Naixença
Tu i jo hi voldríem morir.

* 28.01.1893, Sarrià, Španija
† 29.01.1987, Barcelona, Španija

Josep Vicenç Foix i Mas (1893-1987) was born in Sarrià. He began his law career, but abandoned it due to his literary vocation. In 1917 Joaquim Folguera incorporated him into La Revista (1917-1919) and from then on his career as a publicist lasted until the Civil War as a contributor to various literary media and magazines. Of particular note is his incorporation, when the newspaper became catalanist, into the editorial staff of La Publicitat (1922-1936), where he collaborated daily under the pseudonym "Focius". In 1947 he published his first poetic work, Sol, i de dol, in which Foix combined the Catalan humanistic tradition with the newest literary currents, which he adapted with a singular originality. He was definig himself as a "poetry researcher". In the postwar period it is when he presents his work in verse (On he deixat els claus, 1953; Onze Nadals i un Cap d’Any, 1960) and two new deliveries of his diary of 1918 (Del “Diari 1918”, 1956 and L’estrella d’En Perris, 1963). In 1964 he compiled the volume Obres poètiques, which contains his work of creation published until then and a new miscellaneous book of poetry in verse, Desa aquests llibres al calaix de baix. Despite having stopped writing in 1973, it is in the last three years of his life when he receives recognitions and tributes, such as the Ciutat de Barcelona Prize, Premi d’Honor de les Lletres Catalanes, the Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres and the National Prize for Spanish Literature, among others. His last book, Cròniques d’ultrason, composed of prose poems, appeared in 1985. He died at his home on January 29, 1987, the day after his 94th birthday.
