Aside from the constant references of Joan Lluís Vives work, many writers end Elightenment personalities made clear that theyr practiced pilota from a central or a sideline approach.

The most recurring examples are Arnau de Vilanova and Sant Vicent Ferrer. Current narrative also integrates pilota, its space and its players in its plots, in works like that of Gabriel Miró, Azorín, Bernat Capó, Joan Olivares or Enric Valor. A special mention for the poem book 'Raspall' by Juli Capilla; theatre play 'Cavallers', by Puri Mascarell; play 'L’home bo', by Caterva Teatre troupe or the great amount of editions of local pilota publication 'Això és com tot'. The 'Ferida' magazine, with 14 numbers, has become a prestigious publication.
