«Terra baixa» is the three-act drama by Àngel Guimerà, published by Selecta in paperback in 1976 (84 pages, in Catalan).
Terra baixa contrasts the lowland, a corrupt space dominated by power relations, with the highland, a free territory from which Manelic arrives. The marriage of convenience between Manelic and Marta, a young woman subjected to the master Sebastià, unleashes a conflict of love, honor and freedom in the rural Catalonia of the time.
This edition belongs to Biblioteca Selecta Teatral, number 11, published in Barcelona. The work was originally published in 1896.
For students of Catalan literature and readers interested in classical theater, especially in nineteenth-century rural drama.
