It houses many historical landmarks such as the palace of Can Cortada, home of famous Catalan author, Baron Malda, as well as Can Cargol, the home of Xavier Corberó, a famous Catalan artist and good friend of Robert Hughes. In his book Barcelona: The Great Enchantress, Hughes wrote of the winding catacombs underneath Can Cargol and the entirety of Esplugües de Llobregat (2004: 5) , which had been dug for both storage and defense during the times of Roman control over the region. Robert Hughes suggested that these caves, which were reminiscent of “the secret labyrinth of a snail shell,” might have been the inspiration for the borough’s name which translates to House of the Snail. While there, Hughes found an old printing press in one of the catacombs’ storage rooms and thought it to be used by radicals during the 17th century to produce Anti-Carlist texts (2004: 5). Oliver Hochadel and Agustí Nieto-Galan discussed Eduardo Mendoza’s novel, The City of Marvels, in which the main character is introduced distributing “anarchist pamphlets to (the) workers” of Barcelona (2016: 1). This theme of demonstrating political activism can be seen throughout the entirety of Barcelona’s history. An example is the Setmana Tràgica or tragic week outlined in a book chapter by Teresa Vilarós. Tragic week is the name for the weeks of July 25 to August 2, 1909 in which there were a number of conflicts between the working class of Barcelona and the Spanish Army (Vilarós 1995: 41). According to Hochadel and Nieto-Galan, many historians view Barcelona as the “world capital of anarchism” as it serves as a strong component of Catalan culture and can be found throughout the city’s history, even in regions as small as Esplugües de Llobregat (2016: 3). 1 � https://collections.ecu.edu/files/original/20/538/Schunk_Kendall_Esplugues_de_Llobregat.m4a 84a64e19fc7831b9563e00d33da0994c Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
