Synopsis
At the end of the 19th century, in November 1891, a book entitled, Erroma eta Jerusalem was published in Bayonne. The author was the Basque writer and missionary Martin Ducq, from the Hazparne missionary base. As its title suggests, the book was a travel diary: the author gave an account of a journey, or more precisely a pilgrimage, to Rome and Jerusalem. In this edition, Kaltzakorta has analysed the book's content, adding numerous philological notes and writing a preface to explain its characteristics.

Synopsis
Joseba Sarrionandia was a friend of Txomin Peillen and he wanted to compile Peillen’s many essays in this book. For this purpose, the texts have been standardised and adapted, while still respecting their content. The book has been divided into six sections: autobiographical writings; anthropological writings; our language; the singers of Zuberoa and ancient writings; contemporary literature; and political circles. In the preface, Sarrionandia offers us some details about Txomin Peillen’s life and work.

Synopsis
This doctoral thesis focuses on the use of Basque in two schools, with highly diverse pupils and in contexts that are not so favourable to learning Basque. To explore the interrelationship between local pupils and those of immigrant origin, we will concentrate on two main variables: a) the attitudes of members of the school communities analysed (focusing on Basque and multilingualism); and b) pupils' oral communication skills in Basque. Attention will be paid to the results obtained for these variables, and in particular to achievements and challenges. Appreciative Inquiry has been, as we explain below, the philosophical source that led us to further analyse the diagnosis in terms of its strengths and achievements.

Synopsis
There is nothing new in the idea that just over two thousand years ago, when Romanisation began, the Basque language was unknown in much of Euskal Herria, the modern Basque Country. This idea is based on the set of place names of Indo-European origin to be found in eastern Álava province and the western part of Navarre. The question is whether the Hispano-Celtic names of villages on stones and altars from Álava and Navarre are sufficient to sustain the hypothesis that Basque was unknown throughout the western part of the Basque Country at the time of the change of era.

Synopsis
This thesis is a creative attempt to broaden and improve the toolkit of Basque demolinguistics. In this essay, setting out from sociolinguistic knowledge of minority languages and taking its inspiration from international demolinguistic work, we have exhaustively and imaginatively researched the potential of the main three sets of statistics on the Basque language (HZ, HEKN and ISL) and what possibilities they offer for creating new options by implementing new indicators.

Synopsis
Euskaltzaindia has been a pioneer in the methodological development of the social history of languages. Euskaltzaindia's project Euskararen Historia Soziala (Social History of the Basque language) is the Academy's main project in this area of research. Our researchers have developed a new methodology and theoretical framework that the Academy wishes to share with researchers and interested parties around the world through the publication of the book Taxonomy proposal for the (historical) sociology of language research: A Basque Contribution (Euskaltzaindia 2024), edited by Mikel Zalbide and Lionel Joly.
