Abstract
This concluding chapter analyses the ongoing relevance and significance of literature and identity for Catalan culture today. Wrapping up the volume, it addresses three new issues that require closer attention: (i) the role of popular fiction in constructing cultural identities; ii) the position of small literatures like Catalan literature within the World Republic of Letters; and iii) the unresolved and ongoing debate about the position of Catalans who write in Castilian within Catalan culture.
