"In the 19th century, a great literary revitalization in both the Catalan and the Galician languages' literature occurred. In Catalonia, the movement was called "la Renaixença" ('the Rebirth') and was headed by poet Jacint Verdaguer, dramatist Àngel Guimerà, and novelist Narcís Oller. In Galicia, it was "o Rexurdimento" ('the Resurgence'), majorly represented by poets: Rosalía de Castro, Manuel Curros Enríquez, and Eduardo Pondal."

Etymology

Two main origins: * Borrowed from German Öller, a variant of Öhler or Euler. * Borrowed from Catalan Oller, an occupational surname for a potter, from Latin ollārius (“potter”).
