Rhagolwg

I am a Senior Lecturer in Hispanic Studies.  My main research focuses on literary and filmic accounts of Spanish and Galician travel, migration and exile in the US (especially in New York City). I am also working on graphic biographies of Galician intellectuals. In 2014, I published the monograph Spanish New York Narratives 1898–1936: Modernisation, Otherness and Nation with Legenda. I also co-translated an anthology by Welsh poet Ifor ap Glyn into Galician, published in the Galician poetry magazine Dorna (2014). I am co-editor of Galicia 21: Journal of Contemporary Galician Studies.

I graduated with a BA in Filología Hispánica (Hispanic Studies) from the University of A Coruña and arrived in Bangor in 2005, where I completed a MA in European Studies and a PhD in Hispanic Studies.  My PhD thesis, which analysed the presence of New York in early twentieth-century Spanish narrative, was awarded the first Publication Prize for the most distinguished thesis in Hispanic and Luso-Brazilian Studies given by the AHGBI (Association of Hispanists of Great Britain and Ireland) in 2012.

Diddordebau Ymchwil

My main research interests revolve around issues of mobility (travel writing, migration, exile) and how they are represented in both literature and cinema. I have worked mostly on the relations between Spain and the US (with a specific focus on New York City). After publishing a monograph on literary representations of New York in early twentieth century Spanish narrative, my current research project focuses on the connections between Galicia and New York. 

I am also studying comic books and graphic novels, especially graphic biographies of Galician intellectuals (Alfonso Daniel Rodríguez Castelao, Alexandre Bóveda, Vicente Risco, Uxío Novoneyra and Lois Pereiro amongst others).

I also write about my research on Twitter (@DavidMirandeiro) and on my research blog: https://davidmirandabarreiro.wordpress.com/

  • Identities on the Move

    The conference will seek to interrogate the categories given and adopted by people on the move, drawing on an intersectional approach that considers race, class, ethnic and gender issues that have been associated with mobility. The focus on identities as a theme will enable the conference to explore these various intersections and how they play out across time and geographies, also paying attention to the multiplicity of artistic, literary, media and linguistic representations of exile, migration and diasporas. The focus on representation will foster the study of the tensions involved in identity crisis, ‘negative’ and ‘positive’ perceptions of living outside one’s home country, and the role of language (including artistic expression) in the processes of cultural adaptation.

  • José Rubia Barcia’s Exile of Reason and Bile: Creating an Anti-Francoist Narrative from the United States

    Despite the (permanent or temporal) residency of prominent Spanish Republican intellectuals such as Pedro Salinas, Luis Cernuda, Juan Ramón Jiménez and Américo Castro in the United States, this country still has a rather marginal presence within the growing corpus of studies of the Republican exile of 1939. Furthermore, despite having successful academic and literary careers in the U.S., the life and work of some of these exiles have not received great critical attention. This is the case of José Rubia Barcia (Ferrol, 1914 – Santa Monica, 1997), who after standing out as brilliant student in Philosophy and Literature at the University of Granada and fighting against fascism during the Spanish Civil War, left the country for Cuba and later on for the United States, where he became a Lecturer in Spanish Literature at UCLA. Apart from his contribution to the development of Hispanic Studies in this country (he published extensively on authors such as Valle-Inclán and translated the Peruvian poet César Vallejo into English), Rubia Barcia remained a staunch defender of the Spanish Republican Government (which also caused his arrest and almost deportation accused of Communism, during McCarthyism). This seminar will examine Rubia Barcia’s position within the Spanish Republican exile in the United States, by looking especially at his efforts to create an anti-Francoist narrative that challenged the views of the Spanish war and Franco’s dictatorship not only promoted by the

    regime itself, but also by the support given by the U.S. to Francoism in the context of the Cold War. Rubia Barcia’s counter-discourse was developed in the articles he wrote for the press, especially for the pro-Republican newspaper España Libre, published in New York until the death of the Spanish dictator. These (and other) articles were subsequently gathered in the volume Prosas de Razón y Hiel. Desde el Exilio: desmitificando al franquismo y ensoñando una España mejor

    [Writings of Reason and Bile. From Exile: Demystifying Francoism and Dreaming about a Better Spain] (1976). His criticism of Francoism is also present in his creative writing, in the text Umbral de sueños [Dream Threshold] (1961), a volume of prose poetry. The analysis of the anti-Francoist narrative created in José Rubia Barcia’s texts will shed light on the discursive efforts to challenge Francoist official narratives carried out by the Republican exiles and, in the case of those settled in the United States, their reaction to the endorsement that the government of this country gave to Franco’s dictatorship.

  • Galician New York: Migration, Exile, Globalisation

    New Research on Galician Migrations: Half-Day Symposium Irish Centre for Galician Studies University College Cork Friday 10th November 2017 Half-day symposium on migrations is hosted by the Irish Centre for Galician Studies in the Department of Spanish, Portuguese and Latin American Studies. Abstract: This seminar will examine the case of Galician migration and exile to New York City and the literary accounts of this experience. Whereas the displacement of Galician population to South America has been the object of extensive research, little attention has been given to the presence of Galicians in New York, although they represented the majority of migrants of Spanish origin settled in the city since the nineteenth century. The significance of migration in the articulation of Galician identity has led scholars such as Colmeiro (2009 & 2017), Hooper (2011) and Romero (2012) to argue for Galicia’s operation as a global culture. The presence of Galicia in New York not only confirms this argument, but also makes the Galicia-New York connection productive for understanding and rethinking boundaries between local and global, by looking at the ways in which a minority culture is articulated, contested and celebrated at the core of a global city such as New York.

  • Comics & Nation

    With the generous support of the Association for the Study of Modern and Contemporary France (ASMCF)

    In recent years, the rise of the ‘graphic novel’ has boosted academic interest in comic art from different disciplines and fields of study. Graphic texts, in their multiple forms and genres, have been a cultural manifestation reflecting societal changes, historical tensions and also their effects on individual stories since their inception. Comics have also been instrumental in the construction of national identities, both in nation-states and in stateless nations.

    This conference aims to put into dialogue scholars working on a variety of cultures and disciplines to provide a forum for the discussion of the interrelation between comic art (comic books and strips, cartoons and caricature) and nation, placing special emphasis on text/image creation from minority cultures (e.g. Brittany, Corsica, Galicia, Catalonia, Wales, Scotland, Sardinia, etc.) but also including those from nation-states (e.g. UK, France, Spain, Italy, etc.).
