Francesc Vicent Garcia

A year after taking up this post, Garcia obtained a doctorate in theology from the College of St. George and St. Matthias in Tortosa.

In Barcelona, Garcia moved in the literary circle that met Bishop Juan de Moncada in his palace.

[2] He cultivated an artful and elegant verse in sonnets and décima form, and also wrote violent satire and obscene or grotesque compositions.

In 1988 Albert Rossich included some of his poems in an anthology of erotic and pornographic Catalan poetry from the 17th century.

[2] Garcia's poetry resembled that of Spanish contemporary poets, especially in terms of the formality and theme.

Some of Garcia best-known poems are A Lady in A beautiful Black Hair, Epitaph On the Grave Of a Heavy Drinker, and the sonnet Time.
