Agustí Calvet Pascual (Catalan pronunciation: [əɣusˈti kəlˈβɛt]; Sant Feliu de Guíxols; October 7, 1887 – Barcelona; April 12, 1964), known as Gaziel (pronounced [ɡəziˈɛl]), was a Spanish journalist, writer and publisher.
At the beginning of the war, in July 1936, he had to flee to France, as his life was in risk due to the political repression led by anarchist and Communist militias, while his home in Barcelona, including his valuable personal library, was sacked.
In the late 1940s, he wrote Meditaciones en el desierto (Meditations in the desert), a depressing view on the situation of Spain and, more generally, of Europe in the postwar years.
Two professional travels, to Switzerland and Italy, to attend International Publishers Congresses produced two respective books, Seny, treball i llibertat (Sensibleness, work and freedom) and L'home és el tot (The man is everything).
Although strictly speaking he did not belong to the Noucentisme Catalan cultural movement, he was close to it and always admired Eugenio d'Ors and, above all, Enric Prat de la Riba.
