Joan de Sagarra i Devesa (born 8 January 1938) is a Catalan journalist and writer, son of the poet Josep Maria de Sagarra.[1]
Biography[edit]
De Sagarra studied at the Institut d'Études Théâtrals of the Sorbonne, and when back in Barcelona he worked as a journalist for Tele/eXpres, El País and El Temps, among other publications. He still writes columns for La Vanguardia newspaper.[2]
He is thought to be the father of the concept of the Gauche Divine ("divine left"),[3][4] a movement of leftist intellectuals and artists that spread through Barcelona in the 1960s and early 1970s. The majority of its members came from the well-to-do classes of the Catalan capital.
