New homage to Catalonia, by Vicent Partal

New Homage to Catalonia (Nou homenatge a Catalunya) obviously connects directly with the book by George Orwell, Homage to Catalonia, published by Secker & Wardburg, exactly 80 years ago.
Now, rephrasing Orwell, Vicent Partal, one of the most well known and well considered journalists, publishes what will become a key document of this period of the Catalan History.
 
To understand now where the Catalans are and why Catalans have come this far, one has to stop and see the path traveled because during the last decade Catalonia has starred in a unique epic in the contemporary history of Europe. The great story of this movement can not be written without the small story of its protagonists and that is what Vicent Partal does, with information that had not seen the light until now and the grounds for reflection that experience gives.

Vicent Partal is the owner of his own online Journal and actual President of the European Journalism Center based in Maastricht.
