Documentary collections
Two documentary collections (in photocopy or digital copy) are also stored at the CEDGKC office, which originate in the archives of Josep Carbonell i Rodés and Sílvia Coll-Vinent. The former focuses on the life and works of Chesterton, while the latter is dedicated to research on the reception of Chesterton and other English writers in Catalonia, as well as on intellectuals, critics, and literary figures in interwar Catalonia.
