The Mercator Research Centre on Multilingualism and Language Learning uses the definition for these languages defined by the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages (ECRML): “Regional and minority languages are languages traditionally used within a given territory of a state by nationals of that state who form a group numerically smaller than the rest of the state’s population; they are different from the official language(s) of that state, and they include neither dialects of the official language(s) of the state nor the languages of migrants”. The Mercator Research Centre aims at the acquisition, application and circulation of knowledge about these regional and minority languages in education. An important means to achieve this goal is the Regional dossiers series: documents that provide the most essential features of the education system of regions with a lesser used regional or minority language. 3 aim The aim of the Regional dossiers series is to provide a concise description of European minority languages in education. Aspects that are addressed include features of the education system, recent educational policies, main actors, legal arrangements and support structures, as well as quantitative

  • Border, Belonging, and Circulations in the Pyrenees During the Modern Period
    Changed Borders, Changed Nationalities Border, Belonging, and Circulations in the Pyrenees during the Modern Period Alexandre DUPONT ABSTRACT Traditionally considered as being fixed since the seventeenth century, the French-Spanish border was nevertheless the subject of a slow and difficult process of demarcation throughout the nineteenth century. The difficulties can notably be explained by the complex social reality of a long-crossed border, as well as a cross-border organization that local inhabitants refuse to abandon less out of a refusal of national construction than a defense of a socioeconomic system based on an open border. Beginning in the nineteenth century, these sometimes secret cross-border circulations were coupled with intense political circulations that made the French-Spanish border a political space in its own right throughout the modern period. “Arrival of don Carlos at the bridge in Arnéguy, French border,” Le Monde illustré, weekly newspaper, Paris, 1857-1940. Situational map for the French-Spanish border. Source : Wikimedia Commons. Octave Penguilly L’Haridon, The Smugglers, lithograph, circa 1850 (image taken from the journal Les feuilles du pin à crochets 7, p. 4). A Border Demarcated Long Ago? Traditionally, the historiography for the French-Spanish border has considered it to be one of the world’s oldest, or in any case as one of the longest defined separating lines, seemingly stable since the Peace of the Pyrenees in 1659, which consecrated France’s annexation of Roussillon. This border has apparently shifted very little since then, with the exception of events such as the departmentalization of Catalonia and its addition to the France of 130 departments under the First Empire (1812-1814), a departmentalization that was never made official.

  • 'Living Like a King? the Entourage of Odet De Foix, Vicomte De Lautrec
    2015 II ‘Living Like a King? The Entourage of Odet de Foix, Vicomte de Lautrec, Governor of Milan’, Philippa Woodcock, University of Warwick, Department of History, Article: Living Like a King Living Like a King? The Entourage of Odet de Foix, Vicomte de Lautrec, Governor of Milan Philippa Woodcock Abstract: In the early sixteenth century, the de Foix family were both kin and intimate councillors to the Valois kings, Louis XII and François I. With a powerbase in Guyenne, the de Foix tried to use their connections at court to profit from the French conquest of Milan, between 1499 and 1522. This paper will explore the career of one prominent family member, Odet de Foix, vicomte de Lautrec (1483-1528). Lautrec was a Marshal of France, who served in Italy as a soldier and governor. He was key to the royal entourage, amongst François I’s intimates at the Field of the Cloth of Gold. His sister, Françoise, was also the king’s mistress. The paper will examine Lautrec’s entourage from two aspects. Firstly, it presents how Lautrec established his entourage from his experience in Navarre and Italy and as a mem- ber of the royal retinue. It establishes the importance of familial and regional ties, but also demonstrates the important role played by men of talent. Secondly, it explores Lautrec’s relationship to his entourage once he became governor of Milan. Were ties of blood, ca- reer or positions of Italian prestige the most important aspects for a governor when he chose his intimates? Were compromises made with Italian traditions and elites to sustain his rule? Did he learn from the experience and failures of previous governors? This article contributes to a gap in scholarship for the later period of French Milan from 1515 to 1522.

Attempts to “internationalise” the conflict 7. Lessons learned and potential solutions The independence conflict in Catalonia 1. The territorial pluralism of Spain and the “State of Autonomies” • The complexity of the centre and the periphery when it comes to territorial matters and identity is a distinctive feature of the Spanish political system. This feature is shared with other plural democracies such as Belgium, Canada and the UK (and, to a lesser extent, Italy and Switzerland). • Nonetheless, Spain is one of the few states in Europe that has successfully preserved its national integrity. In contrast to the rest of the continent, Spain’s borders have remained unaltered for five centuries and there has not been a single territorial change in the last two centuries (colonial possessions aside). Figure 1. Europe in 1519 Source: Historical Atlas, W. & A.K. Johnston Ltd, 1911. Real Instituto Elcano - 2019 page | 5 The independence conflict in Catalonia • The reasons for the paradoxical balance between preserving the country’s integrity, on the one hand, and power and identity struggles between the centre and the periphery, on the other, are bound up with the country’s history and its institutions, interests and dominant political ideas.

  • Seed Morphology Uncovers 1500 Years of Vine Agrobiodiversity
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Seed morphology uncovers 1500 years of vine agrobiodiversity before the advent of the Champagne wine Vincent Bonhomme1,7*, Jean‑Frédéric Terral1,7, Véronique Zech‑Matterne2, Sarah Ivorra1, Thierry Lacombe3, Gilles Deborde4, Philippe Kuchler5, Bertrand Limier1, Thierry Pastor1, Philippe Rollet6 & Laurent Bouby1 A crucial aspect of viticulture is fnally unveiled as the historical dynamics of its agrobiodiversity are described in the Champagne region for the frst time. Outline analyses were carried out to compare the morphology of archaeological grape seeds from Troyes and Reims (frst c. AD to ffteenth c. AD) with that of a reference collection of modern seeds, including wild vines and traditional grape varieties, believed to be ancient and characteristic of the French vine heritage. This allows us to document the chronological dynamics of the use of the wild Vitis type and of the diversity of the varieties used, based on morphological disparity. After showing the existence of morphological types corresponding to geographical groups, we highlight a geochronological dynamic. Our results show that the wild type is used throughout the series, up to the Middle Ages. In addition, domestic forms, morphologically related to southern varietal groups, are very early involved in the Champagne grape agrodiversity. The groups corresponding to the typical grape varieties of today do not appear until the second millennium. These previously unsuspected dynamics are discussed in light of the social, societal and climatic changes documented for the period. According to archaeological and archaeobiological data, six centuries separate the development of viticulture in Mediterranean France from the advent of Champagne vineyards, which are now famous worldwide.

  • The March 2004 Regional Elections in France: Terms for a Transfer of Power
    The March 2004 Regional Elections in France: Terms for a Transfer of Power PASCAL DELWIT On 21st and 28th March 2004, the French were summoned for a fourth time to elect their regional councillors.1 In March 1998, the regional elections were held less than a year after the victory of the pluralist left (Socialist Party, French Communist Party, Radical Socialist Party, the Greens and the Citizens’ Movement Party) in the early parliamentary elections held in 1997.2 The results achieved by the parliamentary left were considered good, especially following the very poor showing in the 1992 regional elections. It took over the reins of eight regional councils – Aquitaine, Centre, Haute-Normandie, Ile-de-France, Limousin, Midi-Pyre´ne´es, Nord-Pas-de-Calais, and Provence- Alpes-Coˆte-d’Azur – as compared with 14 held by the parliamentary right – Alsace, Auvergne, Basse-Normandie, Bourgogne, Bretagne, Cham- pagne-Ardenne, Corsica, Franche-Comte´, Languedoc-Roussillon, Lorraine, Pays de la Loire, Picardie, Poitou-Charentes and Rhoˆne-Alpes. The 1998 regional elections were especially marked by the trend towards relative majorities – on the right or left – and by the potential for trouble from the Front National. Despite national directives (half-hearted), four presidents of UDF or RPR regions were elected with the willing help of the Front National: in Bourgogne, Languedoc-Roussillon and in Picardie and Rhoˆne- Alpes. This was in part why the electoral system was modified for the regional elections of March 2004 (see below). The March 2004 regional elections took place in an entirely different context. In the spring of 2002, Jacques Chirac was elected president over Jean-Marie Le Pen, surprise candidate in the second round.3 Moreover, the parliamentary right triumphed in the general elections that followed soon afterwards.
