Bernat Metge (Catalan pronunciation: [bəɾˈnad ˈmedʒə]; (c. 1350 – 1410) was a Catalan writer and humanist, best known as the author of Lo Somni, which he wrote from prison (c. 1398), in which Metge discusses the immortality of the soul.[1]
He was a courtier and Secretary for Joan I of Aragon, queen Violant of Bar, and following some troubles, once more served Martin the Humane of Aragon from 1403 to 1410.[2][1]
His influences included the literature of Provence, Petrarch, and De vetula, wrongly attributed to Ovid and now sometimes claimed for Richard de Fournival.[3]
He had a profound impact on the Catalan letters and was a catalyst for Italian letters to reach the Iberian Peninsula.[1]
