The Consequences of Mobility Roskilde: Roskilde University, Department of Language and Culture 93-105 ISBN: 87-7349-651-0 http://www.ruc.dk/isok/skriftserier/mobility/ © Janie Beswick and the Editors, 2005 The Portuguese diaspora in Jersey Janie Beswick University of Southampton, Southhampton, United Kingdom [email protected] Abstract This present paper concerns recent migrations from the Portuguese mainland and from the island of Madeira to the English and French speaking territory of Jersey, the largest of the Channel Islands. On-going research is being carried out with a group of students from the Jersey community and studying at the University of Southampton. Through a series of informal discussions and class participation exercises, a detailed evaluation of both behavioural and attitudinal evidence pertaining to these languages in context is carried out. Moreover, the students own observations about their home community’s sociolinguistic network and notions of identity afford a valuable insight into the hierarchical and attitudinal factors which determine the interpersonal communication strategies employed on a day-to-day basis. To this end, tentative conclusions are made regarding the ethnolinguistic vitality of the younger members of this particular community. Introduction The movement of peoples across the globe is not a new phenomenon. In the past, new lands were discovered and indigenous populations were, ultimately, subjugated by the more powerful invaders. Thus, for example, the Romans voyaged to the Iberian Peninsula, conquered and colonised the territory and, as the politically dominant ethnic group, imposed their vernacular on the native populations, what Mar-Molinero terms an imposed ‘top-down’ colonising process (2003: 3).

Jersey, March, 1816. PREFACE. At a time when regions, distantly situated, and un- connected with Great Britain, either by political or commercial affinity, are thought worthy of appearing in print, it seems natural to hope, that an island, in the vicinity of England, so long and so peculiarly at- tached to it as Jersey, will be considered as entitled to still greater attention.

  • The Population and the People of Jersey
    The population and the people of Jersey Brian Blench Published in Norois. N°54, 1967. Avril-Juin 1967. pp. 227-239. Translation from the original French First Part. Before 1806 I Pre-history and protohistory There are no studies that deal only with the population of Jersey and the more general ones usually study it only for recent periods. Accurate and reliable figures can be obtained from census records that began in 1811; these increased in accuracy throughout the 19th century. A local census was held in 1806 and is mentioned below. In the period leading up to 1800, most of the information concerning the population came mainly from estimates made by contemporary or modern authors. I have tried, in this paper, to bring together these disparate observations, to compare them and to try to establish their veracity, especially with regard to the high density of the population, a characteristic feature of the demographics of the island since at least the end of the Middle Ages. With regard to prehistoric settlement on the island, studies to date have been limited to the location and location of sites (1) and no analysis similar to that of Mathiassen in Denmark [2] has yet been attempted. Hawkes's study on the archaeology of the island brings together all the research before 1937, while the more recent works are, for the most part, confined to the re-examination of some ancient sites and the discovery of some new sites. The complete description of the prehistoric settlement is relatively simple, as it is restricted to a narrow strip along what is now the island's coastline.
