Ramon D. Perés and poetry: From the ancient school to the ‘musa nova’ Authors Gemma Bartolí Masons Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona Keywords: Ramon D. Perés, poetry, Catalan literature, Modernism, literary criticism Abstract With the first Modernist approaches, one of the most urgent necessities was a renewal of poetry and separation from the nineteenth-century models. This was stated by the critic Ramon D. Perés, who called for an urgent modernisation of the Catalan poetry that would commence with an update of the form.
