Summary
"The character of modern Barcelona has its origins in the artistic ferment that took place at the turn of the twentieth century, when music, architecture, painting, sculpture, and literature flourished as never before. This book recreates this momentous period in the city's artistic, social, and political history, offering a variety of perspectives on the modern foundations of one of the world's great cultural capitals."--BOOK JACKET.
