Pompeu Fabra the man
Pompeu Fabra codified the modern Catalan language. An engineer by training and a linguist by calling, he was the driving force behind the three major Catalan reference works: Normes ortogràfiques [Spelling rules] (first edition in 1913), Gramàtica catalana [Catalan grammar] (1918) and Diccionari General de la llengua catalana [General Dictionary of the Catalan Language] (1932). He did his linguistic work at the Institute of Catalan Studies (IEC).
Publications about Pompeu Fabra and his work
Fabra published his first work on language in 1891. From that point until his death in Prades, in 1948, he wrote numerous books and articles. Many works have also been published about him and his writings.
