Rerouting Galician Studies

This bookaimed at both the general reader and the specialistoffers a transatlantic, transnational, and multidisciplinary cartography of the rapidly expanding intellectual field of Galician Studies. In the twenty-one essays that comprise the volume, leading scholars based in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and New Zealand engage with this field from the perspectives of queer theory, Atlantic and diasporic thought, political ecology, hydropoetics, theories of space, trauma and memory studies, exile, national/postnational approaches, linguistic ideologies, ethnographic poetry and photography, Galician language in the US academic curriculum, the politics of children's books, film and visual studies, the interrelation of painting and literature, and material culture. Structured around five organizational categories (Frames, Routes, Readings, Teachings, and Visualities), and adopting a pluricentric view of Galicia as an analytical subject of study, the book brings cutting-edge debates in Galician Studies to a broad international readership.

The first volume to comprehensively offer an agenda for the current state of and future of Galician Studies Brings together the leading figures in the field from a vast number of disciplines and methodologies Details how Galician Studies, while seemingly discrete, is truly a transnational, interdisciplinary field due to the region's position at the borders of land and sea, Europe and the Americas, and the Hispanic and Lusophone worlds Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
