Synopsis

All Lizardi's poems are written in standard Basque or, to be more precise, as close as possible to the unified written Basque model. One of the primary aims of this adaptation, certainly the most important, is to offer Lizardi's poems in a more familiar, modern version to readers used to and trained in standard Basque. It does this by adapting writing that might appear unusual or unfamiliar to such readers, in order to minimise the obstacles to immersing themselves in the content of the poems.
