How Can a Modern History of the Basque Country Make Sense? on Nation, Identity, and Territories in the Making of Spain
HOW CAN A MODERN HISTORY OF THE BASQUE COUNTRY MAKE SENSE? ON NATION, IDENTITY, AND TERRITORIES IN THE MAKING OF SPAIN JOSE M. PORTILLO VALDES Universidad del Pais Vasco Center for Basque Studies, University of Nevada (Reno) One of the more recurrent debates among Basque historians has to do with the very object of their primary concern. Since a Basque political body, real or imagined, has never existed before the end of the nineteenth century -and formally not until 1936- an «essentialist» question has permanently been hanging around the mind of any Basque historian: she might be writing the histo- ry of an non-existent subject. On the other hand, the heaviness of the «national dispute» between Basque and Spanish identities in the Spanish Basque territories has deeply determined the mean- ing of such a cardinal question. Denying the «other's» historicity is a very well known weapon in the hands of any nationalist dis- course and, conversely, claiming to have a millenary past behind one's shoulders, or being the bearer of a single people's history, is a must for any «national» history. Consequently, for those who consider the Spanish one as the true national identity and the Basque one just a secondary «decoration», the history of the Basque Country simply does not exist or it refers to the last six decades. On the other hand, for those Basques who deem the Spanish an imposed identity, Basque history is a sacred territory, the last refuge for the true identity. Although apparently uncontaminated by politics, Basque aca- demic historiography gently reproduces discourses based on na- - 53 - ESPANA CONTEMPORANEA tionalist assumptions. -

In the Basque Country, 1895 marked the birth of the Partido Nacionalista Vasco (Basque Nationalist Party), concurrent with the development of the cultural nationalist movement known as the ‘Gaelic revival’ in pre-revolutionary Ireland. In 1939, the Spanish Civil War ended with the destruction of the Spanish Second Republic, plunging Basque nationalism into decades of intense persecution. Conversely, at this same time, Irish nationalist aspirations were realized to an unprecedented degree during the ‘republicanization’ of the Irish Free State under Irish leader Éamon de Valera. -

White, Linda; Batua and Euskaltzaindia, a Unified Basque
Batua and Euskaltzaindia. A Unified Basque Language and Its Creators * * * Linda White Center for Basque Studies University of Nevada Reno (U.S.A.) The word euskaldun literally means possessor of the Basque language. Although today it is possible to proclaim one's Basqueness and maintain a certain level of Basque ethnicity without speaking euskara, for many the language is still the foundation of the Basque cultural heritage. There are many theories concerning the origin of the Basque language, but they remain only theories. No one really knows if the language sprang up among the ancient inhabitants of what today we call the Basque Country, or if it was imported by immigrants to the region from some other part of the world. We do know that euskara is a language family unto itself. It is not a member of the Indo-European language family, a large group that embraces the Romance, Slavic, and Germanic languages, including English. Because of the lengthy history of the Basques on the Iberian Peninsula, one of the strongest theories about the language is that the Basques and their tongue originated in situ . Basque would then be one of the oldest languages of the region and possibly the original Iberian tongue. On the more fanciful side, popular theories date the language from the Tower of Babel or even link it to the lost continent of Atlantis. Anyone who has attempted to learn Basque as a second language is familiar with some of the more obvious difficulties that arise when dealing with a language that is as different from English as Japanese or Swahili. -

EL NACIONALISMO VASCO: MITOS, CONMEMORACIONES Y LUGARES DE LA MEMORIA Javier Ugarte (coord.) Javier Moreno Luzón (Coord.) El árbol de Gernika. Vicisitudes del símbolo foral de los vascos* FÉLIX LUENGO TEIXIDOR ANDER DELGADO CENDAGORTAGALARZA Dpto. de Historia Contemporánea de la UPV L 7 de octubre de 1936, tras la aprobación por parte de las Cortes Españolas del Estatuto Vasco y la proclamación del primer go- E bierno autónomo vasco, el presidido por José Antonio Agui- rre, que por primera vez en su historia unía política y administrati- vamente a las provincias vascas, aunque solo fuera sobre el papel —no de facto, dado que las tropas franquistas controlaban ya para entonces buena parte de su territorio, reduciendo su control real poco más que a Vizcaya—, el nuevo ejecutivo autónomo se reunió en la villa de Gernika para jurar solemnemente sus cargos bajo el roble secular, símbolo de las «libertades» vascas. Muchos años des- pués, superados los largos años del franquismo y su dictadura, re- suelto el proceso de transición política que permitió recuperar la democracia y la autonomía con la aprobación del Estatuto de la Co- munidad Autónoma Vasca de 1979, el nuevo gobierno vasco nacido de las urnas, presidido por el peneuvista Carlos Garaikoetxea, vol- vió a elegir Gernika, y su Árbol, como lugar simbólico del juramento de su cargo. Una tradición que, desde entonces, han mantenido los sucesivos lehendakaris que han ido presidiendo los gobiernos au- tónomos del País Vasco hasta nuestros días, siempre con mayoría del PNV. Con ello no han hecho más que recoger una vieja práctica asumida por todos que, cuando menos desde la primera mitad del siglo XIX, es decir, durante todo el período en el que se ha ido pro- duciendo la conocida como «cuestión vasca» y sus problemas de in- tegración en la España liberal, fijaba en Gernika y en su roble, el principal referente simbólico de sus fueros y libertades, en el esce- nario más idóneo para todo tipo de actos de exaltación foral, auto- nómica, nacionalista o identitaria en general. -

This article is a biographical sketch of Sabino Arana (1865-1903), the founding father of Basque nationalism, in the first seventeen years of his life. It examines these aspects: his family, his exile in the French Basque Country during the last Carlist War, his studies at the Jesuit school in Orduña and his discovery of natio- nalism from his brother Luis in 1882, which would provide the origin of the first Aberri Eguna (Fatherland Day) in 1932. -
The Dynamics Between Unified Basque & Dialects in the Northern
International Journal of Language and Linguistics Vol. 6, No. 1, March 2019 doi:10.30845/ijll.v6n1p13 The Dynamics between Unified Basque & Dialects in the Northern Basque Country: A Survey Based on Perceptual Dialectology Jean-Baptiste Coyos Basque Text & Language Study Center IKER - UMR 5478 (Bayonne - France) & Royal Academy of the Basque Language Château Neuf - Place Paul Bert 64100 Bayonne France Abstract Today Unified Basque, a standardised written version of Basque created by the Academy of the Basque Language from the 1960s onwards and which is now widely codified, coexists alongside the Northern Basque Country’s dialects (NBC, France). Understanding the relationship between these different forms of the Basque language is necessary in order to implement an appropriate language policy. In this paper we present the answers to the open-ended questions of a survey and accompanying comments. Based on Perceptual Dialectology, the questionnaire was completed by 40 people working in Basque in the NBC: writers, teachers, journalists, translators and language technicians. The main objective was to gather their opinions regarding Unified Basque and the dialects. The respondents were chosen according to the following criterion: they are all language prescribers, working in the language and providing a model of the Basque language for society.The main results of the survey are as follows: 95% of respondents think that Unified Basque is necessary in the NBC, 92.5% believe that the specificities of the NBC’s linguistic varieties should be preserved, 80% that Unified Basque does not harm the NBC’s dialects and more than half that there is now a form of Unified Basque specific to the NBC. -
