Xeración Nós

Galician cultural movement

Quick Summary

The Xeración Nós (The We Generation) was a Galician cultural movement in the early 20th century. This group of writers, active in the 1920s and 1930s, aimed to consolidate Galician culture and identity. They promoted their ideas through the literary and artistic journal Nós (We). This movement was part of a broader revival of Galician literature and language, which had seen a significant resurgence in the late 19th century with figures like Rosalía de Castro. The Xeración Nós contributed to the growing regional consciousness in Galicia, a region in northwestern Spain with its own distinct language and culture.12
