Maria Àngels Anglada was a specialist in Classic Languages and Literature and translator from Greek and Latin. She alternated her devotion to teaching with writing. She also wrote for the press, and published poetry, literary essays, and popular works on the classical world. She was best known to readers for her many novels.
Imbued with a faith in the world’s beauty, Maria Àngels Anglada was a writer, like Kavafis and Robert Graves, who was fascinated by ancient civilizations. Her clear and refined prose emerged from a profound knowledge of the Greek tradition and world literature, from her love for the landscapes she had known, and from her deep conviction that, come what may, human dignity will always win out.
«Anglada writes with elegance and subtlety, the brevity of the story only adding to its emotional power.»
