The Universitat Jaume I (UJI) has presented five new editorial works in Valencian at the Plaça del Llibre in Castellón. The fair, organised by the Fundació FULL, was held from 6 to 7 November 2026 at the Plaça Hort dels Corders.
The new publications cover a range of topics, including the appreciation of university artistic heritage, philological research, translations of Greco-Roman classics, and pedagogical innovation.
On the first day, Raquel Agost, the Vice-Rector for Culture, Social Commitment and Equality, introduced Fons artístic de la Universitat Jaume I, a work coordinated by Carmen Lázaro. This publication documents the artistic and visual heritage of the UJI throughout its history, offering insights into the university's cultural identity and the role of art as a means of social transformation and knowledge.
Following this, Rosa Agost, Vice-President of the Acadèmia Valenciana de la Llengua, presented two new titles from the Ariadna collection of Greek and Latin classics. The first is a bilingual Greek-Valencian translation of Aeschylus's tragedies Suplicants and Prometeu encadenat, translated by Andrea Sánchez with selections by Rubén J. Montañés Gómez. The second title is Tristes. Libros III, IV y V by Ovid, translated by Lluís Museros and co-published with the Acadèmia Valenciana de la Llengua. This collection features poetry from the Latin exile that significantly influenced European Romanticism and contemporary lyricism, including poets such as Vicent Andrés Estellés.
Additionally, Lluís Meseguer's work Les veus del Mediterrani. Comunicació i territoris de la Nova Cançó contemporània was presented by Jaume Garcia Llorens and Carme Pinyana. This publication, part of the Estudios Filológicos collection, examines the Nova Cançó as a major contribution to European musical and literary culture since the mid-20th century.
On the second day, Ramón Feenstra, the rector's delegate for the Direction of the Cabinet, Open Science and Integrity, along with co-author Consol Aguilar, introduced the book Quan la vida entra a l'escola, coordinated by Alfred Ramos. This work compiles pedagogical experiences and reflections stemming from the eighth edition of the Ferran Zurriaga Conferences on research related to school notebooks using Freinet techniques during the Second Republic, serving as a meeting point for those interested in the Modern School Movement.
