«En els espadats de marbre» is the novel-fable by Ernst Jünger, published by Edicions 62 in paperback (144 pages, in Catalan).
In the form of a fable, the novel takes place in a peaceful country whose existence is disturbed by the threat of barbarian hordes; many critics have interpreted it as a mythical denunciation of the rise of Nazism and an allegory of the devastation that barbarism brings to civilization.
Work originally published in 1939; German title: «Auf den Marmorklippen». Translation by Francesca Martínez. Collection MOLU s.XX - Les Millors Obres de la Literatura Universal Segle XX, number 41.

Ernst Jünger was a German author, soldier, philosopher, and entomologist who became publicly known for his World War I memoir Storm of Steel. A prolific writer of over forty books, Jünger wrote particularly in the furtherance of conservatism and against what he perceived as the spiritual oppression of man.
