Exhibition in honour of Enric Valor
Enric Valor
The Public Library of Javea will hold an exhibition from 17th to 29th January, to commemorate the birth of Enric Valor.
This eminent man from Castalla -province of Alicante- dedicated a short period of his life to the shoe industry -a historically strong sector in the area. Then, in 1930, he started a cultural and literary career as a writer in an Alicante newspaper.
Enric Valor was a strong defender of the Valencian language. This firm republican intellectual never gave in any political pressures. Until the day he died, in 2000, Enric was a tenacious promoter of his cultural, linguistic and political ideas.
