520			_aMariners catalans célebres by Lluís Maria Soler y Puig is a historical lecture-essay from the late 19th century. It offers a panoramic account of Catalan seafaring achievement, focusing on notable naval leaders and the development of the Crown of Aragon’s maritime power. The likely topic is the rise, zenith, and gradual decline of Catalonia’s military and merchant navy as seen through its most celebrated captains and admirals. The text begins by explaining the hierarchy and duties aboard medieval ships—Admiral, Captain General, Vice-Admiral, comitre, and patró—then proceeds century by century. It traces the naval foundation under Ramon Berenguer III and IV, the conquest of the Balearics with Jaume I, and the 13th-century Italian-Sicilian wars highlighted by Roger de Llúria’s sweeping victories and the brief Catalan lordship of Djerba. The 14th century brings Sardinian campaigns, conflicts with Genoa (including alliances with Venice), Bernat de Cabrera’s maritime ordinances, and the War of the Two Peters with a decisive victory off Barcelona in 1359, alongside the prominent Marquet line of captains and municipal armadas from Barcelona. The 15th century features operations around Naples and Genoa—Fivaller’s bold expedition foremost—followed by the 16th century’s anti-Barbary actions, Catalan participation at Lepanto, and notable figures such as the Requesens family. The closing chapters recount the naval decline under a Castilian-led fleet, yet single out late standouts like Antoni Barceló’s relentless corsair-hunting, Felip Bauzà’s pioneering hydrography, and patriotic privateering by Basart and Bosch, ending with a tribute to the enduring maritime glory of Catalonia.
