Jacint Verdaguer (1845–1902)

Born 1845 CE, died 1902 CE.

Jacint Verdaguer i Santaló (Catalan pronunciation: [ʒəˈsim bərdəˈɣej səntəl'o]; 17 May 1845 – 10 June 1902) was a Spanish writer and priest, regarded as one of the greatest poets of Catalan literature and a prominent literary figure of the Renaixença, a cultural revival movement of the late Romantic era. The bishop Josep Torras i Bages, one of the main figures of Catalan nationalism, called him the "Prince of Catalan poets". He was also known as mossèn (Father) Cinto Verdaguer, because of his career as a priest, and informally also simply "mossèn Cinto" (with Cinto being a short form of Jacint).
