Renat Nelli

Renat Nelli

Renat Nelli (pronounced|reˈnat ˈnelːi), who was born in Carcassonne in 1896 and died in 1982, was one of the major Occitan authors of the 20th century.

In Vichy France, Nelli joined the French Resistance and in 1945 was one of the co-founders of the Institut d'Estudis Occitans. He also co-wrote the special issue of the "Cahiers du Sud" magazine on "the Genius of Òc and the Mediterranean Man" (1943), in which the three main lines of his literary mission stand out: the publication and translation of medieval Occitan poets; publishing his own poems; and being a critic. His collections are marked with sensuality and draw their inspiration from the mystical traditions of Cathars and trobadors. He later tried his hand at prose and drama. Renat Nelli is known in French as René Nelli.
