Unlike the millions who participated in the mass migrations to Latin America during the 19th century, those who left Galicia for Northern Europe in their hundreds of thousands during the 1960s and 1970s have remained mostly invisible both in Galicia and in their host countries. This study traces the innovative mappings of Galician cultural history found in literary works by and about Galicians in the Anglophone world, paying particular attention to the community of ‘London Galicians’ and their descendants, in works by artists (Isaac Di?az Pardo), novelists (Carlos Dura?n, Manuel Rivas, Xesu?s Fraga, Xeli?s de Toro, Almudena Solana) and poets (Ramiro Fonte, Xavier Queipo, Erin Moure). The central argument of Writing Galicia is that the imperative to rethink Galician discourse on emigration cannot be separated from the equally urgent project to re-examine the foundations of Galician cultural nationalism, and that both projects are key to Galicia‘s ability to participate effectively in a 21st-century world. Its key theoretical contribution is to model a relational approach to Galician cultural history, which allows us to reframe this small Atlantic culture, so often dismissed as peripheral or minor, as an active participant in a network of relation that connects the local, national and global. 410 0$aContemporary Hispanic and Lusophone cultures. 606 $aGalician literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aGalicians (Spain)$zGreat Britain 606 $aArt, Galician 607 $aGalicia (Spain : Region)$xCivilization 607 $aGalicia (Spain : Region)$xEmigration and immigration 615 0$aGalician literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aGalicians (Spain) 615 0$aArt, Galician. 676 $a946.1 700 $aHooper$b Kirsty$01514157 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781226903321 996 $aWriting Galicia into the world$93749086 997 $aUNINA
