En este artículo se reconsideran y se desmienten algunas de las afirmaciones más consolidadas en la historia literaria actual sobre la Generación del 27: la celebración en diciembre de ese año en Sevilla de un homenaje a Luis de Góngora, con patrocinio del torero Ignacio Sánchez Mejías, que cerraría los actos de reivindicación del poeta barroco; la restricción de la generación a la poesía, como hecho distintivo de los nuevos escritores según Dámaso Alonso, y la amistad como factor aglutinante del grupo. Se aportan aquí numerosos argumentos documentales que permiten desmontar estas consideraciones como construcciones críticas infundadas y restaurar, así, la realidad histórica de ese riquísimo fenómeno que fue clave en la llamada Edad de Plata de la cultura española.ABSTRACTThis article re-examines and questions some of the assertions that are most established in current literary history regarding the Generation of 1927: the celebrations in December that year in Seville in honour of Luis de Góngora, sponsored by bull-fighter Ignacio Sánchez Mejías, presumably as an end to a series of events vindicating the Baroque poet;the narrowing of the generation to poetry, as a defining characteristic of the new writers according to Dámaso Alonso, and friendship as the unifying force in the group. Extensive documentary evidence is offered here to undermine these claims as unfounded critical constructions,aiming to restore accuracy in the actual history of this rich phenomenon that was key in the so-called Silver Age of the Spanish culture.

Migration and Modernities recovers a comparative literary history of migration by bringing together scholars from the US and Europe to explore the connections between migrant experiences and the uneven emergence of modernity. The collection initiates transnational, transcultural and interdisciplinary conversations about migration in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, demonstrating how mobility unsettles the geographic boundaries, temporal periodization, and racial categories we often use to organize literary and historical study. Migrants are by definition liminal, and many have existed historically in the spaces between nations, regions or ethnicities. In exploring these spaces, Migration and Modernities also investigates the origins of current debates about belonging, rights, and citizenship. Its chapters traverse the globe, revealing the experiences — real or imagined — of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century migrants, from dispossessed Native Americans to soldiers in South America, Turkish refugees to Scottish settlers. They explore the aesthetic and rhetorical frameworks used to represent migrant experiences during a time when imperial expansion and technological developments made the fortunes of some migrants and made exiles out of others. These frameworks continue to influence the narratives we tell ourselves about migration today and were crucial in producing a distinctively modern subjectivity in which mobility and rootlessness have become normative.
