«Terra baixa. Drama en tres actes i en prosa» is the drama by Àngel Guimerà, published by Generalitat de Catalunya in paperback (155 pages, in Catalan).
The action is set in Catalonia at the end of the 19th century, where social differences and lack of communication mark the lives of the characters. Guimerà portrays the helplessness of the humble and their impulse of rebellion against injustice, turning that struggle into a collective metaphor: the people against the figure of the wolf.
This first edition, published in 2022, includes a prologue by Jordi Font Cardona and an appendix by Francesc Xavier Vall i Solaz.
A work of interest for readers of classical theatre and students of Catalan literature.

He is considered one of the principal representatives of the Renaixença movement, at the end of the nineteenth century.
