| biography:
| Catalan minor poet, born in Matapó. Influenced by Ausias March, his most important work is an epic poem in three cantos on the Battle of Lepanto, ‘La singular y admirable victòria que, per la gràcia de nostre senyor Déu, obtingué el sereníssim senyor don Joan d'Austria de la potentíssima armada turquesca’ (1573), generally known simply as Lepant. He concealed his authorship except for an acrostic at the end. The ‘Visió en somni’ has stylistic affiliations with March, but none of his finesse. Pujol also wrote verse commentaries to March's poetry which have been preserved with his epic in manuscript 4495 of the Bibliothèque Nationale, Paris. His ‘Etern factor de tota creatura’ has been reprinted by Castellet and Molas in their Ocho siglos de poesía catalana (1969). |
