Por meio do estudo de algumas das tópicas medievais a presente dissertação se propõe a analisar o lai do trovador Joan Lobeyra intitulado Canção de Leonoreta. O desenvolvimento do trabalho levou à busca de diversas reinterpretações dadas à canção em diferentes momentos da histórias do mundo ibérico. Desse modo, o caminho percorrido conduziu à análise da reescritura da canção na novela de cavalaria intitulada Amadis de Gaula, na obra dos poetas portugueses Affonso Lopes Vieira e Silva Tavares e, finalmente, na obra da poetisa brasileira Cecília Meireles / By the study of some medieval topics, the current dissertation purposes to analyse \"The Chant of Loroneta\" by Joam Lobeira troubadour, the development of such a work led to the search for several interpretations given to the chant in different periods in iberian world history, in this view, the way followed was the one led to the analysis of the knight-errantry tale chant entitled Amadis de Gaul in Afonso Lopes Vieira and Silva Tavares\'s writings, both portuguese poets, in the writing of brazilian poetess Cecília Meireles

My thesis, Literary Citizenship and the Politics of Language: The Galician Literary Field between 1939 and 1965, is the first attempt to examine the building process of Galician national literature by focusing on one of its constitutive elements, the linguistic criterion. Drawing on Mario Santana's concept of literary citizenship, which can be defined as membership of a literary community, it pays attention to the development of the idea that Galician literary citizenship is language specific, in other words, that to be a member of the national literature, writers have to write in Galician. It does so by focusing on one of the most neglected periods in Galician and Spanish Studies (1939–1965). Chapter one, 'Going Public: The Adventure of Galician Publishing, 1939–1965', presents the first ever account of the publishing world in the studied period. Chapter two, 'From Region to Nation: Galician Literary Studies', argues that the main battleground in the definition of Galician literary citizenship was the field of Galician literary studies, where the concept of literary citizenship was naturalised and then institutionalised. Chapter three, 'Negotiating Identities', explores writers' language choices, paying special attention to those who wished to earn a language-specific Galician literary citizenship. Apart from native and exophonic writers, the chapter addresses writers who did so through translation. Chapter four, 'No Man's Land: Female Writing and Language', argues that female writers had a double-edged experience in the literary field. The patriarchal literary institutions were interested in their symbolic capital but they exercised firm control over them. The conclusion, 'A New raison d'être for Galician Literary Studies', summarises the main argument put forward by this thesis, that to understand fully the development of Galician literary citizenship, literature must be studied outside the national framework.
