摘要:The field of Galician Studies has undergone significant transformations since the beginning of the 21st Century. Firstly, it has developed into an autonomous field of study within Iberian and Hispanic Studies, and is now regularly well-represented in Hispanic Studies conferences and the principal academic journals of Hispanic and Modern Language Studies. Internally, the field has also seen significant and qualitative advances. International conferences such as 'A Galaxia explicada: Cultura galega en di¨¢logo/The Galaxy Explained: Galician Culture in Dialogue' (Stirling, June 2007), 'Coming out of the Nation: Beyond the National in Galician Cultural Production' (Liverpool/Bangor, March 2008) and 'Sobre o tempo e as palabras: A cultura galega contempor¨¢nea a exame' (Cork, June 2008) succeeded in fostering dialogue upon specific themes in the field, therefore complementing, but also moving beyond, the more generic scope of the International Association of Galician Studies' tri-annual conferences. Equally important is the role played by the expanding network of Centres for Galician Studies funded by the Xunta de Galicia, whose efforts to grant increasing visibility to the Galician language and culture on an international scale, as well as to the field of Galician Studies itself, cannot be overemphasised
