Catalan Identities: Literature, Social Commitment, and Political Engagement in the 20th century

Research output: Chapter in BookChapterResearchpeer-review

Abstract

What does it mean to write in Catalan? What does ‘Catalan culture ’ mean? And what does it mean to build a literary oeuvre? The life trajectories of the authors analysed in this volume enable us to explore these questions from the inside. Catalan culture and language originated in the early Middle Ages. This introductory chapter takes a modern stance and analyses the development of linguistic, literary and social identity in the 20th and 21st Centuries.
