Sumario:The Barcelona politician and historian Rafael Cervera is the author of Historia de Cataluña (History of Catalonia); a Spanish translation of the Crónica (Chronicle) of Bernard Desclot dating from 1616.

The article explores the life of Cervera, revealing that he was a member of the so-called erudite circle of Barcelona of 1620-1630, which undertook to rescue the glories of imperial times from oblivion with the clear intention to defend the Catalan position
