Synopsis

Synopsis

This book goes beyond the use of Basque among young people in Navarre, because the problem is very similar in other provinces. The thoughts and opinions of experts working from very different perspectives and starting points are provided. Some of these experts report on the proposals and projects they are working on; others consider the importance of orality in normalising the use of Basque; teachers discuss how they deal with this aspect in the classroom, what approaches they use and what initiatives are being taken outside school, for children who have learnt Basque at school to have a Basque-speaking network outside school.

Synopsis

It is of strategic importance in schools, in education, to run projects among increasingly multilingual students. This book sets out to analyse the status of Basque in education in Navarre. How multilingualism is managed now in schools and how this should be done in the future, what new challenges and opportunities face Basque in and out of the classroom, and what projects are being run in the classroom and in extracurricular activities.

This book presents several pieces of work with the intention of exploring the sociolinguistic evolution of Donostia/San Sebastian. First, Lionel Joly Charrasse outlines the methodological model for studying the social history of languages, in particular the social history of Basque. The second chapter of the book sets out to highlight the main languages in Donostia/San Sebastian in the course of its history. In the third, Juan Madariaga Orbea, on the basis of his extensive research into the subject, describes the position of Basque in the city in the 19th century. Next, Koldo Larrañaga Elorza, after exhaustive research, presents the opinion, and above all the practice, of members of the Royal Basque Society of the Friends of the Country, the social élites of Gipuzkoa province, with regard to Basque. Then in chapter five, Olatz Altuna Zumeta and Maialen Iñarra Arregi report on the position of Basque at the beginning of the 21st century. In the final chapter, on the basis of the methodological model mentioned above, Mikel Zalbide Elustondo and Lionel Joly Charrasse explore the sociolinguistic evolution of Donostia over the last 250 years. All these pieces of work provide an overview of the sociolinguistic evolution of Donostia/San Sebastián, from both synchronic and diachronic points of view.

Synopsis

We are well into the 21st Century and the digital environment is, without a doubt, part of our lives by now. Artificial intelligence, and language technologies in particular, have entered our everyday, and the Basque language is no exception here. How can the digital environment help revitalize the standardization of Basque? With this main objective in mind, we set out to learn about the experiences of other languages, that of Euskaltzaindia itself, and that of Basque institutions. The aim was to firstly move forward in the formulation, evaluation and circulation of Basque’s standardization in the 21st Century.
