Joaquín María Bover de Roselló

Joaquín María Bover de Roselló (in Catalan: Joaquim Maria Bover de Roselló or Joaquim Maria Bover i Roselló; in Spanish: Joaquín María Bover de Roselló) (Seville, 1810 - Palma de Mallorca, 1865) was a Spanish writer and editor who wrote primarily in Spanish but also some poems in Catalan. Bover grew up on Majorca, with occasional stays in Madrid. He was an avid student of the Balearic Islands, writing several books about its geographical and historical aspects, as well as several studies on its writers and literature, such as his dictionary on Balearic writers. He also wrote inspirational poems and poems about local circumstance (at least some of them in Catalan), as well as compiling a Mallorcan Catalan-Spanish dictionary.[1]
