A few days ago, the 53rd Feria de Abril de Catalunya, organized by FECAC (Federació d'Entitats Culturals Andaluses en Catalunya), was inaugurated. And following this celebration, Catalan political scientist Arantxa Tirado was the subject of an online diatribe for having said that she had seen the “real Catalonia” there. She herself clarified the interpretations of her comment, and since I don't know the extent of the dialectical turmoil, I won't go down that path. I only cite it to do justice to the origin of the idea of writing the lines that follow.
