This essay provides an overview of literary production in Catalan in the Kingdom of Valencia during the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries, an extensive period of time that has been described as "decadent" on account of the pressure of Castilian and the relative neglect by Valencians of their own language in favor of that of the Hispanic monarchy. However, recent research has revealed the survival of autochthonous literature, which, up until now, has been little-studied.
