Zusammenfassung:Over the past three centuries, the millennium personality of Catalonia has been 'disappeared', submerged and fractured by a centralist system obsessed with the cleansing of all vestiges of national difference from a homogenized Spain. Out of this configuration has emerged a fragmented vision of Catalan culture appreciated mainly through the sporadic protagonism of such irrepressible geniuses as Gaudí, Dalí, Miró and Bigas Luna. The present volume offers a more comprehensive understanding of Catalonia's creative contribution across a broader spectrum of achievement. Written by an international team of scholars and focusing on the modern age, this monograph privileges not only conventional areas such as history, music, language, literature and the arts, but also popular experience, with elements such as sport, cinema, festivals and cuisine
