Dirty Hands: The Old Through the New and the Collateral Effects of Overexposure in the Cultural Context of Non-Urban Galicia Ángel Calvo Ulloa IndexReviewsFramed as a collective reflection on the challenges and opportunities of rethinking Galician culture for a post-2008, post-Covid, rapidly digitalizing world, this ambitious essay collection will transform our understanding of contemporary Galicianness. The authors, all writing from beyond Galicia itself, critically embrace the identity of 'displaced subjects' to challenge the contemporary supremacy of sentidino, a distinctively Galician form of 'common sense', identified as a key tool in the ongoing containment of Galicianness to make it compatible with the demands of the neoliberal Spanish state. Drawing on an innovative, multidisciplinary corpus and diverse theoretical frameworks, the essays drive us beyond the familiar, exploring fresh dimensions of contemporary Galician culture that leave us in no doubt of its creative, outward-looking, transformative potential. I'm immensely excited about this collection, which promises to revolutionise Galicia's place in both teaching and research. Kirsty Hooper, Professor of Hispanic Studies, University of Warwick, UK Beyond sentidino interrogates collectively some of the most significant cultural issues in Galiza today. Bringing to the fore ecocentric, queer and other counterhegemonic perspectives, the essays in this volume testify to the vibrancy of Galician Studies as a transdiscipline, a unique vantage point from which to illuminate the many facets of resistant cultural practice in (relation to) Galiza, which remains -to this day- a contested space of the Iberian, Hispanic and Lusophone spheres.
