Overview
Galicia en Madrid was a monthly magazine published in Madrid between 1932 and 1936, subtitled "Órgano de Lar Gallego" (Organ of Lar Gallego). It first appeared in January 1932 and was directed by José Manuel Poyán, with Manuel Castro Gil as artistic director, José Vidal Lois as literary sub-director, and José Díaz Andión as chief editor. Its contributors included Victoriano García Martí, Marisa Villardefrancos, Manuel Blanco Otero, Enrique Peinador Porrúa, Gerardo Bugallo Barreiro, Manuel Fontán Medina, and Juan Rof Codina, while Miguel Bendamio served as correspondent in Cuba. In its first period the magazine focused on current affairs, miscellanies, and reviews of social life. From 1933 it incorporated poetic texts by Aurelio Ribalta, Valentín Lamas Carvajal, Avelino Rodríguez Elías, Ramón Cabanillas, and Juan López Medina; sections such as "Adiviñanzas" and "Sabiduría popular" by Noriega Varela; biobibliographies of Galician figures; and the reproduction of a vocabulary drawn from the Diccionario castellano-gallego by Vicente Llópiz Méndez. Publication ceased in April 1936. The magazine is remembered as one of the printed publications of the Galician diaspora, serving the community of Galicians in Madrid and maintaining links with Galician emigrants in Cuba through its correspondent. Its run coincided with the politically turbulent years of the Second Spanish Republic, ending shortly before the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War.
