The Germà Colón Domènech Foundation

The Foundation Germà Colón Domènech is a cultural institution related to the donation of the particular library of professor Germà Colón to Universitat Jaume I. This fact makes it possible that Romance Philology researchers and scholars from all over the world can have access to the bibliographic list that one of the biggest specialists in this scope of the knowledge has gathered. Thus, Dr. Colón wanted to contribute generously to the consolidation of the university centre of his home city. It clearly reflects the human and academic willingness of the distinguished professor from Basel University.
