Jordi Alzina i Bilbeny ( Arenys de Mar, October 14, 1961), better known as Jordi Bilbeny, is a philologist, researcher in history and folklore, writer and Catalan poet famous for his studies on censorship and the Spanish Inquisition . Many of his works denounce the manipulation and concealment of the history of the kingdoms of Catalonia, Valencia and Mallorca by the monarchical and state censorship.
Bilbeny has a degree in Catalan Philology by the Autonomous University of Barcelona and has been a professor of Catalan language classes for adults at the Islamic Cultural Council of Catalonia and at the Women's Penitentiary of Barcelona (Wad-Ras), among other places.[1] He launched the "Symposium on the Catalan discovery of America" in 2001.[2] Bilbeny is a member of the "Arenysian Movement for Self-Determination", a local independentist movement, and of the Arenys de Munt's Popular Unity Candidacy,[3] and was one of the organizers of the 2009 Catalan independence referendum in Arenys de Munt, for which he composed the anthem.[4][5] He is a leading member of the Institut Nova Història, a research organisation which claims that Columbus, Miguel de Cervantes, and the author of Lazarillo de Tormes were Catalan.[6]
