Carles Riba (1893-1959) wrote several articles in which he showed his commitment to literature and reflected on the role of literature in society, as "Socrates in front of the judges" (1926), "Politicians and Intellectuals" (1927), "Literature and Rescuing Groups" (1938) and the presentations of the Revista de Catalunya (1939 and 1955). Many of these texts were written in turbulent political contexts: the dictatorship of Primo de Rivera (1923-1929), the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) and the post-war period under Franco (1939-1959). The aim of this paper is to study these articles and analyse Riba's view of writers and intellectuals.
