Joaquim Maria Bartrina i de Aixemús (26 April 1850–4 August 1880) was a Spanish poet and playwright born in Reus, Spain, whose work is linked to the Realist movement. He is considered one of the founding fathers of the Catalan literary avant-garde.
In 1876, Bartrina was the first to make a Castilian translation of Charles Darwin's book The Descent of Man.[1] Bartrina was a supporter of Darwinism.[2]
